for any of my upstate new yorkers (more like the capital region area) on here their hotdogs were always my favorite; i dont really eat ice cream but in the summer i would always get a cup of plain vanilla with rainbow sprinkles at least once
while not *directly* in new york city, it is one of my must visits during the warmer months/summer when i visit family in new york! nothing beats grabbing a sweet treat in my second home honestly, and ralph’s always hits!!!
yes it's in queens, yes in the warmer months it's absolutely packed, and yes the hours of operation are absolutely abysmal but it's the best damn ice cream you'll find in the area. plus my grandparents used to go there on dates and now i do too
i’ve visited quite a few friends’ small town hometowns and the one thing that stood out to me was the local ice cream spots. i love yapping over insane ice cream flavors
am currently trying and will try to record more of life in 2025. whether it be through collecting receipts, jotting down an entry in a journal, recording a voice memo, or taking a simple video. i love looking at old video/photos and jounal entries to see what i did on a specific day. we always forget about the mundane
