Guest guest Posted July 17, 2000 Report Share Posted July 17, 2000 Joleen, How do you know about Ted Drewes? I have grown up around the stuff but don't really care for it. It's too rich for me. Weird, huh. I've been given a tongue lashing from everyone I tell that to. Oh! Almost forgot... When I was 12years old, I entered a coloring contest Ted Drewes had and I won first place. It was $50.00 worth of their stuff. When you buy a cone here and there, it really lasts! Take care, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Ice Cream is huge for me. I have it almost every evening. There have been a few nights where I could care less wether I had any or not, but they are few and far between. I just keep allowing myself to have some. I've said it before, I know I relate ice cream to love I felt with my Dad when I would go to his house on the weekends (ice cream was pretty much forbidden by my mother) and he and I would make really yummy sundaes. I keep wondering if there will come a day when I really am sick of the stuff and never want it very often, but for now, I enjoy a bowl of vanilla with chocolate and caramel drizzled on top. I just love the coldness and creaminess! Yummmmm! --Alana -------------- Original message -------------- smartypants0141 wrote:> This weekend we had ice cream in the freezer.

I bypassed the "wolf pack" menatality by setting aside a portion for myself in a separate container in the freezer so that I could relax in the feeling that it was there if I wanted it. This way I knew that it was there when I was ready for it, I didn't have to hork it all down like the opportunity for ice cream would never come again When I really felt like having some, I did and you know what? I realized that I don't think I even LIKE ice cream all that much! After years of being afraid to have it lurking in my freezer! It left a nasty after-taste in my mouth and upset my stomach a little bit. It's like coming to the realization that the big, terrrifying monster that I've been trying to hide from all these years was really a t iny, furry muppet that I can flick away like it was nothing! Hahahahaha!>> Wow. That is a great epiphany! Ice cream used to be my own demon. My love affair w/ it has fallen apart for various reasons - allergic to pecans (butter pecan used to be my fav), switched to decaf (leaves out all coffee varieties), and a bit of snobbery with regards to freshness, texture, etc. We tend to go to Cold Stone when it's ice cream time, but the last time it was so sweet I had to give it to DH - even he said mine was too sweet. I want to savor a flavor, not 'sweet'.Congrats! smartypants is a monster-slayer!F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
