This is pretty much the best thing to happen since Ben and Jerry's free cone day... you know, last month.
Today is Häagen-Dazs' free cone day. (Yes, we're nothing if not consistent.) Participating shops are giving out a free scoop of your choice from 4 to 8 p.m. on Tuesday, May 8.
In addition the Bethesda Häagen-Dazs (7237 Woodmont Ave.) will be hosting a ribbon-cutting for a new community mural, which is set to include reps from the cultural landmarks pictured in the mural. Expect live music, poetry readings and mini history lessons.
