Ice Cream

Thank you, Aunt Amy, who had the idea for this post, and who is, in fact, a builder of ice creams.


Is there ever a wrong time for ice cream?
No.

Can one ever be too full for ice cream?
No.

Can it ever be too wintery/cold for ice cream?
No.

Is ice cream unhealthy?
No. Not for the soul.


Needless to say, ice cream is my favorite dessert food. I would say it's my favorite food ever, but pizza and mac & cheese bring tough competition. Despite this, I have no favorite ice cream flavor, but some well-loved ones include mint chocolate chip, chocolate chip cookie dough, moose tracks, cake batter, mocha chip from Graeters, straight up chocolate, straight up vanilla, and many others.

Toppings are never a must, but they may be desired in the case of plain ice cream (like vanilla). Never nuts. Ever. As a topping or in my ice cream. But peanut butter is occasionally acceptable (for example, the little Reeses-like cups in moose tracks) Also, a sugar cone is preferred to a cake cone, but a bowl is always just as well too. I've had a waffle cone like once in my life, and although it was tasty, it sweated ice cream which was not very convenient or clean.

Ice cream is suitable for any event or social situation, always. It can be just as classy as it can be fun and playful. And if you dump it on your apple pie, or into a mug of hot chocolate, you're doing life right.

Ice cream, in short, is a gift from God. They call it soul food for a reason. While it may be cold to the tongue, it brings warmth to the heart and a smile to the face.

I guess all I can say now is...

I SCREAM YOU SCREAM WE ALL SCREAM FOR ICE CREAM


God bless.
