Mug Shot: Amy's Ice Creams

 

This is a fairly average mug. It's a great size, it's sturdy but not too heavy, it's colorful. Amy's ice cream is a local-ish chain. I think it's mostly (or only?) in Texas. I've been hitting it up a lot this summer, since they have a branch near where I charge my car and it's hot. 

The ice cream is good. They only ever have a few flavors at a time, and most of those are pretty standard flavors--although their drinks and combos do elevate the flavors. But I'm a weird ice cream flavor aficionado, so I go more for the unusual flavors offered by places like Salt & Straw or Jenni's. 

But Amy's has FRIENDLY staff and a small-town feel, and this mug. Which, when you turn it around, offers this message: 

KEEP AUSTIN KIND.

I think we all need a lot more kindness.
