Two weeks ago my Mom and I traipsed around the Birmingham Zoo with two of the minions.
Once we’d wandered to our heart’s content we picked up my nieces who live in Birmingham and went to Steel City Pops in Homewood. After all, we were in desperate need of a pick me up after The Great Terror nearly ate us at the Lorikeet exhibit.
Steel City Pops is a super hipster place that just sells, yeah, you guessed it, popsicles. Hipsters love popsicles.
I am the Vulcan and I hold a popsicle!
The popsicles came two ways: creamy or fruity.
The flavors definitely were not your average grape and cherry. I tried the buttermilk. It tasted like cheesecake and was super rich. Hank got Vanilla Bean. It was basically like ice cream on a stick.
Twin one chose strawberry:
Twin two chose sweet tea:
The sweet tea was my favorite. It basically just tasted like, well, frozen super sweet tea.
Hank was a big fan of the Mountain Dew sign outside:
Mostly because he likes to say the word Innards.
I’m not a fan of the word innards or Mountain Dew because Mello Yellow kicks Mountain Dew’s butt.
I just spent sixty seconds trying to decide whether the word ‘butt’ was appropriate for my blog. Please send help because that’s sixty seconds I’ll never get back.
I’ll definitely get back to Steel City Pops,though, because those things were delish.
