March wonders of the tasty green shakes

Oh the month of march is almost here and one of the best things about March in my opinion ( that's the only one I can give you) is the cool creamy wonderful taste of the shamrock shake. MY FAVORITE!!!! I wait for this month with baited breathe every year. That may be a bit of over kill but these shakes have captured my tongue.
I seldom go to the fast food restaurants except for a quick drive through for a cup of senior coffee on my way to & fro, but when March rolls around I get to know the personnel at the McDonald's drive through up close & personal. OK, maybe not that well, but I do get my fair share of the wonderful shamrock shake.
Its not even March yet but a few days ago Sweet Man brought one of these delightful taste bud ticklers for me. He's such a great guy!!!
I like to savor them so I stick it in the freezer & pull it out in the evening after dinner & eat only a few spoons full of the frozen wonder, then stick in back in the freezer to be enjoyed the next night. I can enjoy a medium size for about four days this way....I think I'm fooling my self thinking its less calories. I have a head start this year & have devoured my first already & March isn't here yet. One awful year I almost forgot until the end of the month & oh, that was a sad time. You can only get these for a limited time & once they are gone that's it. Maybe I should learn how to make my own but they won't be near as good or as fun to eat just for this one short month each year.
