soul-stirring.

this is not me

but we both

always have green eyes

usually wear glasses

sometimes like to get fancy   

and never fail to enjoy ice cream

what better time to celebrate national ice cream day than a week before winter begins?

  5. Is that true, you have a National Ice Cream Day just before winter comes up???? I’ll never….
    I can’t understand that passion for ice cream at any time in the year. I gasped when I lived in the UK and would find, any given day, be it a cold, wet, miserable or hot one, people with cones in ‘the open’….
    Or girls in the middle of the (relatively balmy, compared to – let’s say – Minnesota meteo) winter sans tights, high heels, the shortest dresses, and ice creams in their hands. I, a winter-accustomed Swiss, would be, in comparison, all onion-skinned-lulled-up, mittens, hat, shawl, boots…. the full Monty! 🙂
