This thread is nuts. Ice cream is too dangerous ... but hot-air ballooning is acceptable? Sheesh, it's the end of a school year. Ice cream seems totally appropriate and in-scale.

No. No ice-cream in the covid. Not until it is done and over officially. The ice-cream in theory can be made before there were rules and precautions in place and virus loves freezing temps. So hard pass.. unless home made, then yes.

So no ice cream from a drive-thru or grocery store?

Last year I started a tradition of going out to lunch at an old fashioned ice cream shop.

This year I had to come up with something new so I invited one other family over for a socially distancing piñata bash and will offer nice ice cream treats that I take out of the box without touching the wrappers.

If you're not buying ice cream, that leaves more for my family. Thanks!

Root beer floats and a night at the local theme park.

Burning papers seems to go a little too much towards “aren’t you glad you don’t have to waste your time doing that any more” for me

Ice Cream for breakfast makes it a celebration!

Before the pandemic we would have all the friends over and everyone just put their papers in and had a great time by the pool. It will be less fun this year but maybe more cathartic to kind of burn the bad year.

Same. We normally do popsicles at the bus stop with the neighbors and a special dinner.

We just trash stuff once I get around to it, but this is a very weird interpretation. Should we keep old worksheets forever? Frame them? The work has been done. They’ve served their purpose.
