It's Wednesday, and that means we're halfway through the work week.
It's also National Frozen Custard Day. Ice cream vendors, Archie and Elton Kohr, invented frozen custard on Coney Island, New York in 1919 when they found that adding egg yolks to ice cream created a smoother texture and helped the ice cream stay cold longer, according to National Day Calendar. Check with your favorite custard shop and see if they might be offering some deals to celebrate.
