Voilà! You are yet again the kid your parents indulged with yet another ice cream, lovingly, without your having to throw any tantrum ever. Childhood days are back again. Spoon after spoon of ice cream literally melts in the mouth till even the cone is eaten up. You are happy, contented, and yet you crave for more.
Such is the magic of an ice cream that it can melt anyone on this earth. I do not think there is anybody on this earth who dislikes an ice-cream. I think that even in an igloo, a birthday party would end with dollops of ice cream!
Such is the craving for ice cream because it is not just " thanda, thanda, cool, cool". It tickles the taste buds in a simply unique way. No Thums Up can beat a cup of ice-cream. Specially mouthful, and literally so, is the ice-cream made at home, in the good ole ice-cream maker, or even when beaten in the mixie, and set in the fridge. I suppose, the taste lies somewhere in that together feel.
As for me, my favourite coffee, too, assumes the avatar of an ice cream in the summer. Oh, yes, I suppose it is the fantasy of every child, to be down with tonsillitis. Why? Well, apparently Doctor Uncle would advise lots of ice cream as the after operation therapy!
The saga of ice cream is such that it can melt any heart, and yet it warms up the mindscape with the nicest of memories. Yes, yesterday was the ice cream day. Well, ask every kid of any age group, every minute, nay, every second would be the ice cream time, and life-long!
Pratima@ The fount of eternal childhood is found in a 'bar' (loved in college days, eh?), in a 'cone' (hated during school days, especially in the maths classroom), and in a 'cup' (always cheery and cherished at any age). Ice-cream is forever!
