About
The Scoop
In fourth grade someone got the bright idea of cutting lunch to an outrageous 15 minutes (as if going to a year-round school without a cafeteria wasn't enough--we ate at our desks and were served by mobile carts in the hall). To get the slow eaters (me) up to speed, our teachers implemented a charming little policy called "Shovel Time."
The first nine minutes would pass normally. Then as the tenth approached, Miss Stauffer (a feathered-haired gal who drove a Camaro and loved Little River Band) would yell, "Do you know what time it is?!" The class would manically shriek back, "SHOVEL TIME!!!" Talking was absolutely forbidden the final five minutes—it was a deathly silent scarf fest.
I don't know if I've ever been the same since. But as a nod to this classy ritual, I've adopted the humble scooping implement as my rating system's icon. Shovel on!

OH MY GOD. Again, let me say how happy I am to be reading this blog, because I hadn't heard a word of this. Arby's is one of those places that my best friend in Ohio is constantly going to and constantly bragging about to me, knowing that I'd kill for a Chicken, Bacon, and Swiss. You've made me so very happy. If you went already, I'm dying to hear how it was.

donuts4dinner: The new Arby's is amazing. I posted it on Goodies First because I don't think anyone reads this blog, which is a shame. No one loves a chain, it seems.
