Junk Food Confession: I actually had a McDonald’s Cinnamon Melt on our trip. It was the morning of Space Camp, and that was the only place open we could find for breakfast. I wasn’t too hungry (TOO! MUCH! ADRENALINE!) so I just thought I’d get a pie or something. I had no idea they were a new thing when I ordered it; I just saw the sign above the cashier. Unfortunately about two seconds after I was given my change, a shout rang out from the kitchen. “WHO SOLD A CINNAMON MELT? WE DON’T KNOW HOW TO MAKE THOSE YET!” Apparently it was, like, Day One of the Cinnamon Melt and our cashier had unknowingly sold one before the kitchen was even prepared. I said I’d be more than happy to take something else, and after much back-and-forth I was provided with two(!) Cherry Pies. A little while later, my cashier appeared triumphantly at our table with a cardboard box in her hand. “I made one!” she announced. “That’s okay, really; I just ate a Cherry Pie!” I said. “No, you have to try it! They’re really good! And it’s on me.” Well… okay. It was pretty darn tasty! I don’t like dry, cakey cinnamon rolls, and this one was pretty much the opposite of that. Moist, gooey, loaded with icing… I guess that’s why it has 460 calories, huh? (Yeah, I gained like eight pounds on that trip.) If you can spare the nutritional deficit, I recommend the Cinnamon Melt.

Oh, and I tried Diet Coke Plus too. I thought it tasted exactly the same as regular Diet Coke (i.e. DOUBLE-PLUS AWESOME).

No luck on finding any web info about the Kogarah Knit & Natter. I’ll pop by the LYS possibly tomorrow and see if/when/where it’s happening.
Did you get suckered in by the cute little bottle that the diet coke plus comes in? They put it right by the counter and I was very weak to the cuteness at 5am.
Tim and I liked the Cinnamon Melt, though the BK equivalent (Cinna-Mini’s or something like that) are superior. Dunkable icing!
