RECAP - Orange is the New Black Pies and Free Ice Cream!

Have you had the chance to snag the free pies and ice cream from the "Orange is the New Black" truck yet?

If not, here is what to expect:

This is how the truck looks like! Finger-lickin' good



Hello, cardboard cutout! This was before the rain attacked!


Apparently, this is what they call a "pie"
It looks like an empanada to me, haha




FYI, these are the ingredients in said pie, so make sure you're not allergic to any
Also note that little pie is like 300+ calories
This is how the soft serve cone looks like
It melts extremely quickly even in this cool, rainy weather
Beware of drippin' ice cream down one arm


Oh and it's half vanilla and half chocolate

They have the prison theme going 

Looking ahead of the mini line - people will open umbrellas to get freebies

Man, it was such a huge downpour, that the cardboard needed an umbrella!

They were also passing out temporary tattoos

If you plan on checking out the Orange is the New Black truck, you have two more days, - check the locations and schedule here: http://bit.ly/1nxkDPs

And because it was also the last day of Shake Shack's Decade of Shack with their special burgers and it was just right around the corner...

I had to take a peek to see what the rain did to the line.

Looks like this little doggie is headed for the Shack

Alas, the ping pong table is free
Bummer, no one to play with!

There is however a line of folks with their lovely umbrellas 
waiting undeterred
I presume this is the shortest line out of the 5 days!

Enjoy,
Terresa =)

Repost:
Netflix recently released the second season of Orange is the New Black, the show that follows the misadventures of a group of female inmates. Today, Netflix announced plans to roll out Crazy Pyes, a promotional food truck that will give out free pie and chocolate-and-vanilla swirled ice-cream cones. Both items nod at lines spoken by one of OITNB's most beloved characters: Suzanne "Crazy Eyes" Warren (played by the actress Uzo Aduba). Her season-one catchphrase was,"I threw my pie for you." 
This isn't the first time Netflix has sought to capitalize on the significant role food plays in the show. Just last month the company announced plans to release an OITNB cookbook.
While Mexico City has already gotten a taste of the Crazy Pyes truck, dates and locations for U.S. stops have only been released for the New York City area. Additional cities will be announced later this month.
Thursday, June 12: 4-8 p.m.: Broome Street at West Broadway 
Friday, June 13: 4-8 p.m.: Between 22th and 23rd streets, near Madison Square Park 
Saturday, June 14: 2-6 p.m.: Williamsburg, Brooklyn, at North 7th St. 
Sunday, June 15: 1-5 p.m.: West side of Central Park near Columbus Circle
