Cold Stone Creamery is one of the local “hangouts” , in town. It is a
place where something is always going on. Howell is generally a large town, but it is in the
middle of nowhere, farms and fields everywhere! Unless I wanted to hang out at the local
grocery store or Stop N Shop, there wasnt much to do in town. Everyone comes to Cold
Stone; friends, families, boyfriends and girlfriends, teenagers, children, and adults. Its a very
friendly, relaxing and popular place.
I cross the parking lot and jog over to the door. The door handle is sticky as I wrap my
fingers around it, probably due to several people who touch it after touching their ice cream,
and I pull it open and immediately smell the warm, sweet sensation the second I open the door.
Instantly, I feel the parlors warmth. “TIP!” I hear a voice shout out. I quickly turn to see the
employees burst out in song and begin clapping. “If youre happy that you came here, take a
bite, Because you know that only Cold Stone does it right, So we raise our voice and
holler just to thank you for your dollar And we hope to see you back tomorrow night!”
I laugh at how the employees begin to dance the ice cream scoopers, in their hands, swinging
them around. I smile in amusement and push through the heavy crowd of people to get on line.
This is why Cold Stone is so popular, not only because of the ice cream, but that atmosphere
where employees dance and sing and no one is bewildered by it. It gives people a sense of
tranquility, puts them at ease. I see a little girl jumping from tile to tile, like a four year old girl;
red tile, to black tile, to white tile; the floor reminds me of a checkerboard. The bright black
lanterns hang from the ceiling, shining bright light upon everyone. Light is known for making a
place feel cheerful, friendly. The smells of the homemade ice cream being made in the back,
giving the place a baking smell that you can only find in the kitchen of your own home.
