Ice cream truck in a box

Friday June 5

So I always get the same icecream from the bar…(not quite the same as going to a gelateria but I work with what I got and I'm not complaining)

It’s comparable to the icecream truck selection…pictures on top of and you slide the door to the side to get what you want

So I actually like the orange and lemon slushy tube things and then discovered what is equivalent to a lemon chill on a stick…delicious. (ya know the lemon chills you get at football games and amusement parks...comes in the little tub) So I get the lemon chill on a stick. I know what you are thinking…if you know me very well...where is the chocolate. Yes chocolate and I have a long established love affair but I am in a fruit phase.

Correction. An artificial flavored fruit phase. So its lemon chill on a stick for me…

The point of this very pointless rant was:

I branched out and tried something new, only to be wishing I had gotten the lemon chill on a stick. So I am in the common predicament of “do you order your favorite thing off the menu or try something new “…except with “icecream truck in a box” and my love of the lemon chill on a stick. I think I will return to my lemon chill on a stick.

Besides, it’s only tiding me over till I can get my next gelato fix.

As I mentioned the “ice cream truck in a box” is located in the bar. The bar is the café. In Italy “bar” is what we would call a café and bar (like in America) is called a “locale” I think. (I wrote it on a notecard I have not looked at again so don’t quote me). Alice found this very amusing.

Convo:
Me - In America bars only serve alcohol.
Alice - So where do you go for coffee?”
Me - Starbucks.

But I don’t go anywhere for coffee. If you are in architecture grad school you go to McDonalds for coffee (and warm cookies) btw I don’t miss!

Back to the lemon chill on a stick. Yes, Im still talking about it. haha. My days are pretty simple. I love it! If I'm spending my day at lignano…my afternoon usually consist of laying on a blanket with a book or Italian notecards, ipod, cell phone with alarm in case I fall asleep, and lemon chill on a stick! And that’s how I spent my Friday afternoon. I actually put on some tanning lotion and tried to get some sun. Pretty sure it’s a hopeless cause but maybe I can shoot for just a LITTLE less blinding whiteness.
