What's you favourite icecream flavour & which brand? And do you prefer to have it in a cone, or just a bowl?
Mine is Tip-Top's chocolate fudge sundae, and I prefer cones just cos they're fun :3
yikes

My fav flavors are Banana, Hazelnut and Waldmeister, but I can't think of any specific brand I like best.
Waldmeister ice cream seems to not be much a thing outside of Germany, which makes me super sad and will one day probably become the prime motivation for teaching my boyfriend German.

I eat it from a bowl, I can't stand the taste of waffle cones.

*gets some popcorn sksmmdmsdks*

Sometimes I do wonder if it would be possible to squeeze Raire and me into a box and ship us to the UK together so we can visit our friends. Yknow, to save shipping costs.

Wait, not what you were asking about? oops.


I'm in, when will our journey start?
This is the only kind of staff shipping I will accept.

I am all over the board with ice cream, it depends what mood I am in.
Sometimes I prefer fruity flavours (Waldmeister, Passion fruit, Blueberry, ...) and sometimes not (Pistachio, Hazelnut, Vanilla, ...)
The only flavour I totally dislike is... chocolate. I do not like chocolate ice cream at all.
I don't like the cone, so I prefer a bowl or straight out of the box, so I'll join ZEL and Vampiric in the no-cone-corner.

I like Ben & Jerry's Strawberry Cheesecake. The Tonight Dough is a super delicous flavour too. Idm cones but I don't have any at home so it's bowls for me.
I recently discovered that ice cream with bread is not a thing outside of Singapore. Here ice cream carts serve ice cream in plastic cups, wafers or rainbow bread. I always get ice cream with bread! Usually chocolate flavour.

Dama wrote:Over here in the UK we have a big retail chain called Tesco (though I don't know if they trade anywhere else or if it's under any other name) and they sell a variety of different ice cream flavours in big tubs for really cheap; like just less than £2. I'm currently quite obsessed with their caramel vanilla one, but I do also love mint chocolate ^.^

Dama, we get Tesco products in Singapore! Although I've never noticed any Tesco ice cream here.

Figured i'd ask something seasonably appropriate this time. ^^

Me personally i love it as long as it's made the right way. (which is usually from scratch, not the bricks that are usually seen on store shelves) x)

I just realised that I've never eaten fruitcake made from scratch! No idea if I'd like it.

The toaster oven! I don't know how some people live without it! If you want a non-toaster answer, then I like my panini press.

If only lol We get PSDs of the lines and use our prefered art program to make pets. I use Fire Alpaca.

hello there staff, very important question,
do you disable smilies in your posts?
this might decide my opinions on you

The CS smilies feel different from text smilies. I turn it off and turn it back on depending on which smilie I want to use.

    I personally prefer a darker blend, and I don't put much creamer/oatmilk (I cannot give measurements because ngl I just eyeball it ToT). However too much sugar in my coffee gives me a migraine, so I only put like 1tbs cx (again the measurements aren't certain, but I really should measure UnU)

I can't stand coffee. My body is a coffee free zone.

Haha no. I hope this isn't weird but I don't even like chicken (unless it's deep fried)

I've been craving some nice ice cream so I thought I'd pop in and answer this :D

Mint chip has typically been my favorite! My favorite brand is a local shop ^^ I also really really like Perry's Ice Cream, specifically Bittersweet Sinphony or Study Break... so good... I don't think there's Perry's flavor I haven't liked, and I've tried a lot of them. And always dish, I find cones very flavorless and unnecessary... though a chocolate dipped cone is fun!

I'm not really overly picky on ice cream, I tend to prefer vanilla over chocolate. Probably my favorite is either plain vanilla (without the bean bits) or vanilla with chocolate chips. As for brand, again, don't really care that much, though I really like the chocolate chips Bryer's put in their ice cream (just the right size without being too big), but for some reason our store does not stock Bryer's plain chocolate chip, just mint chocolate chip. Which is ok I guess but I'm not big on mint. They have one whole brand of plain chocolate chip, and the chips are like, shredded, which is not even close to the same thing as actual chips, and not anywhere near as good.

Though this time of year I also like to get this root beer float flavored ice cream that they stock in the winter, so I just got some of them and its really good. Tastes just like a root beer float but its an ice cream bar. Can't beat that...except with an actual root beer float I guess.

What is your favorite type of tree? I love Willow trees, they're very soothing to me.


I'm not helpful with this cause I live in florida and the only trees we have around here are oak and those rly tall pine trees (I don't count the palm fronds as trees, those are more like...pointy bushes, but we have tons of those too). So I haven't really 'experienced' much else in the way of trees sorry. I didn't realize people even had favorite kinds of trees. Any time I go up further north I'm always looking around at all the different kinds of trees and the rocks, kinda fascinating to me. But I have no idea what any of their names are so lets just go with, anything thats not a longleaf pine is a good tree by me. (I believe thats the variety we have here, real tall, branches only up high, ooze this horrible sap than doesn't wash off, pine cones everywhere, don't shed in the fall/winter. Boring trees to be around as a kid :( )

I don't think I've ever had a fruitcake. I'm not really big on the idea of fruit in cake even if it is full of sugar. Had pineapple upside-down cake once but didn't really like that. Gonna assume it would taste something along those lines. I'll just continue to eat pumpkin pie all through winter, cause it shouldn't be confined to thanksgiving.

In general I like anything chocolate. My favourite is probably Carte D'or chocolate ice cream. I also really like Asda's own-brand cookie dough tubs. Right now I have a tub of plain vanilla in the freezer though, which I love with a drizzle of raspberry sauce.

Eh, really not my favourite I'm afraid. I'm not super keen on any kind of fruity cake.

The microwave is my trusty, reliable friend who helps me to pretend I have an ounce of skill in the kitchen. I used microwaves for pretty much everything in uni since they didn't give us ovens and the hobs were terrible. My specialty was scrambled eggs, and I still contest that making them in the microwave is way better than using a pan anyway!

Pets have a set schedule when they are supposed to grow, but it goes by age, not by date.
You can see this in late adopted pets - when somebody adopts them on the very last day of the month, they still need to grow up and aren't in their adult forms.

We've only had very few pets that grew on a specific date and it has been a long time since we last had one.
One of those examples is this pony litter:
archive/2009/Hanukkah/

Instead of "Age 1" it shows the exact date it grew up on. ^^
