I know I've been posting a lot of pictures of food on this blog, but there is something quite important to me that I haven't allowed myself to buy. Every time I'm at the grocery store, I contemplate the ice cream section but decide to save the scarce freezer real estate for actual nutritious food.
Today after work, I had planned to go to an event sponsored by my school's alumni association to mingle and hang out with people, but my plan was derailed. At the end of the work day, my coworker invited me to ice cream with them. Anyone that knows me will understand - there was no way I could resist. Apparently, one of the people in my department celebrates the solstice by getting a Vermontster - a 20-scoop, 4-topping, 4-banana, whole cookie/brownie and whipped cream sundae that comes in a bucket.
The guy with same last name as mine is known for being a "bottomless pit" when it comes to food and he may have started out strong, but when he stopped, I kept going, making up for 2.5 ice-cream-less weeks with a vengeance and surprising all 6 of my companions as well as earning myself the title of MVP in the process.
Afterwards, I was very full of ice cream, and didn't feel like catching the end of the alum event, so I went to Safeway and got 7 pounds of refrigerated poultry instead. I think I'm set for the summer.
