what blows me away Cheri

my idea of 'dessert' was a piece of fruit, occasionally with, oh, 2
tablespoons of ice cream

our desserts were small portions only when i was a child....... a friend
took myself and 4 other gals to Banff one day........ at the 1/2 way
mark we stopped and the 5 girls were all allowed to choose an ice cream
cone of their choice....... and as MANY scoops as they wanted

i said "really?"

and ordered a triple scoop ice cream cone
whimper.... each SCOOP was about 2/3 of a cup of ice cream
i gulped and ate thru the first scoop on the cone......... and..... was
SICK of ice cream at that point (it was a flavour i had never seen
before and haven't again since)

i had to beg the benefactor to stop and allow me to throw the ice cream
cone out as it was melting all over and i could NOT lick one more
drizzle for the life of me

lol, guess how much ice cream teenlet gets??? he was allowed to take
'as much as you want, honey' and ever since, he has oh, maximum 1/2 cup,
usually closer to 2 tablespoons LOL

none of the ice creams spoken of were the cheap icky stuff LOL
