Happy National Vanilla Milkshake Day!

Yum!

I'll always remember...I was around 7 years old and I got the mumps.  Actually, it was worse, I got it twice, sort of.  Half the side of my face got infected, and when it started to clear up, then the other side came down with it.  My typical luck.  But one good thing happened.  The doctor told my mother to get a blender and make me milkshakes - about the only thing I could 'eat'.  She did so, and it made a bad situation a whole lot better...
