mmm... free icecream

[meelie]

I am typing one-handed as in my other hand is a yummy chocolate truffle 'Heaven' icecream. There is a truck out front giving them away! I love promotions! someone came back from lunch and told us about the free icecream and Boss-type guy and myself ran for the door. On the way down in the lift we had a short discussion on the pavlov-like reaction induced by icecream trucks playing 'greensleeves'. Boss-type guy got raspberries and cream flavour. but my chocolate truffle is clearly superior despite my not knowing precisely what a truffle is.

Greensleeves and Pavlov

This my cue to mention those evil parents who told their children that if the ice-cream van was playing music, it meant that there was no ice-cream left.

I also feel compelled to mention that I know of at least two areas in Sydney where the local Mr Whippy van was also the place to score your drugs. Gives Greensleeves a slightly different meaning *g*.

Real truffles are a type of fungi (ie. mushrooms) that grow amongst the roots of certain types of trees. Chocolate truffles are made of chocolate and other stuff that creates a texture similar to real truffles (I think).
