Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

There is a shaved ice place that is right down the way from Coldstone. DD loved the shaved ice flavors so much she said she won't need Coldstone any more.

I had a half SF vanilla and half SF orange: 50/50 bar! yum!

While looking for recipes, I found this vital resource of everything you could possibly want for snow cones, from syrup to concession trailers (just in case you want to start roaming the neighborhoods!)

Shaved Ice machines & Snow Cone syrups, flavors concentrates and supplies

I wish I had an entrepreneurial spirit. That looks like a GREAT money maker.
