Good Things: Mister Softee
I'm not sure how far from New York City this incredible brand stretches, but Mister Softee gets my $2 two or three times during the week in the summer. Mister Softee is a soft-serve ice cream company, and their trucks can be found within five blocks just about anywhere in Midtown and Downtown Manhattan during the summer. One is parked just outside my office at 28th & Broadway every day it doesn't rain.
I used to only go for the vanilla cone with the rainbow sprinkles. But lately I've been diving into the chocolate with chocolate sprinkles. Both are a delight. Especially on a hot afternoon, just getting out of work, and I haven't eaten anything in three hours.
I worked at a Dairy Queen for four years through high school and college, and I don't remember the ice cream being as good as it is at the Mister Softee truck.
Or maybe I just like saying, "Mister Softee." Nah.

Thanks for the kind thoughts
