Frozen custard sounds good. Never had it.

I love Toronto. Everybody knows it is one of the most beautiful cities in the world but I love its luxury apartments and the comfort they provide for the vacationers and business travelers.

There isn't just one NYC accent...and generally speaking NO one wishes they had it.
Personally, I found french accents cuter...or southern ones.

BUT, I must say, I do like east coast accents for men. They sound HORRID on women..just disgusting, tacky, and gross. Pure trashy...men= yes, women=hell no.

Here's some frozen custard facts:

Frozen custard contains eggs and butterfat so it has less air bubbles, making it much creamier than regular ice cream.

Frozen custard was invented at Coney Island Amusement Park in Brooklyn and later introduced to the rest of the country at the 1933 World's Fair in Chicago.

Following the World's Fair it became hugely popular in cities like Milwaukee, St. Louis, and Kansas City.

Leon's Frozen Custard on Milwaukee's Far South Side was the inspiration for Arnold's Drive-In on Happy Days.

Oh fuggetaboutit!!! It's Leon's any day of the week, there is a reason every president stops there!

I know i just posted about how i hate my town, but I love the city its in the metro area of: NYC

10. The skyline is breathtaking
9. Its lovely to know u live in (the metro area) of the world's most important city.
8. The mass transit is the best!
7. Respect for nature! Central Park! Jamaica Bay!
6. The shows! I love broadway plays!
5. Museums! There the best!
4. Time Square! How one little intersection can be the busiest place in the country, if not the planet.
3. How to the north, suburbs are almost nonexistant! The bronx is very urban. The lower third of westchester county is still very city-like. But by the time you reach putnam county or rockland, its pretty much rural and very scenic Same can go for north jersey in some parts. Long island, on the other hand...
2. Its so diverse! People from around the world!
1. That diversity creates ghettos, but it can be very positive! I love visiting chinatown and little italy. If it werent for the license plates on cars, id think i was in a different country!

So yeah, I love the city that I live in the metro area of, but i hate the specific town I lived in up until recently, when i moved to a diiferent town. but im still in the lovely place called the Tri-State Area!
