And I mean “companies that make and sell ice cream”, not just “companies that sell ice cream someone else made” (we have those too, like Ghirardelli).

Like, just off the top of my head:

• Humphrey Slocombe
• Bi-Rite
• Smitten
• Mitchell's
• Hometown Creamery

I further marvel at the fact that so many of these places are open so late. All of the ones above are open until 10 or 11 PM or so.

Getting on MUNI and going underground in San Francisco as it starts to rain, just to come out of the tube on BART in the East Bay where it's not raining just in time to be hit by the same storm that was raining on me earlier
