ICE CREAM MONDAY - CHRISTMAS TIME YO!



Ice Cream Monday

'Making Christmas a little more delicious, one year at a time'

Easing back into the lull week between the Christmas food marathon and New Years has been a cautious and fattening process.

Sliding from party to party I found myself with almost too many options to pick a feature for this weeks installment. So I didn’t.

Christmas lunch was a dessert marathon all to itself, the traditional ‘made to share’ strawberry freeze that was going around definitely got a lot of my attention, especially partnered up with some Pav and Brownies!!

I’ve gotta say, writing a blog about Ice Cream has definitely got its perks when it comes to Christmas time and I got one of the most bitchin’ presents of my life this year. A full Sundae Set!!

For anyone interested in stepping their entertaining arsenal up a notch, the Sundae set comes complete with a scoop, two ice cream themed bowls, choc fudge sauce, marshmallows AND sprinkles. I could’ve just said “the works” but that wouldn’t do it justice. Thankyou Ashley!!

To top that off and put it through its paces I also scored three awesome flavours from the valley’s infamous Shlix Ice Creamery (Courtesy of the very courteous, ms Emmy-Lou).

Lazy Lychee

Cheeky Cherry

& Ferrero Rocher.

Totally blitzing expectations here, the Lazy lychee had a distinctively and somewhat expected summer laziness to it, while the Cheeky Cherry definitely brought a candid counterpart to the subtle richness of the Ferrero.

I wouldn’t recommend going all three at once in the bowl, bit of a clash, but the cherry and Ferrero go pretty damn well together!

It’s hard to go wrong eating anything out of a bowl that looks like a massive ice cream cone, but this really was a showstopping event.

PEACE, LOVE AND DOUBLE-SCOOPS

ICE CREAM MONDAY - Episode #12 (Yew!)

ICE CREAM MONDAY

‘Making life a little more delicious, one week at a time’

Today – The Magnum ‘Ego’

!!ICE CREAM -- THE SOUNDTRACK!!


Lets just get this straight - Normally this sort of thing wouldn’t fly here.
Ice Cream Monday is not about to get stale and start running repeats this year and having been to Magnum town just last week, it did seem a little soon to be coming back. But there’s just something about the Ego…..

The beauty here is really in its simplicity.

Think back to a time when Drumstick ruled the Ice Cream world…. The Magnum was around, but it was just chillin’ out doing its ‘vanilla on a stick’ thing….
Then came Ego….

The part of the mind responsible for the mediation of the conscious and unconscious and developing a persons sense of personal identity.

Do you think streets have psychoanalysts on their product development team?

Guest reviewing this week, the surly old man in training and tortured artist, Mr. Tim Snartt.
If you haven’t already, now would be a good time to hit play on the NYPC.

Nothing like a good underscore for Ice Cream reviewing!

“The Ego really is… just awesome.
It’s a delicate symphony, each well-crafted part from the milk chocolate outer shell to the vanilla backbone playing a subtle yet integral role in the overall experience.

Almost prince like, eating an Ego takes you to a place where you feel like the King of Spain”…..
At this point I believe Tim lost his mind and began to drift further into oblivion, however the overall understanding amidst the crazed rambling was positive.

The Ego really is the bomb – an escape for the everyman, a piece of timeless indulgence, and a cornerstone of the late night selections.

Next week will be a bit of Christmas special, and not in the VH1 Top10 before Two10 kinda way.
As always, keep the suggestions for the Delizia Summer Special custom flavour coming in – check their website out at DELIZIA

And in the spirit of sharing – hit this one up as well –
WOKINABOX - WIN A YEARS WORTH OF ICE CREAM!

if you win the year’s supply I’m taxing you a month though!

<3 Peace, Love and Double-Scoops <3

MC Gaff E!



Here's something fun, wild and weird that is well worth looking at! Welcome to MC Gaff E.....!

Our story begins when MC Gaff E escaped the semi-rural wonderland of Brisbane Australia to seek her fortune in the big sleazy world in 2006. Landing in London she met Peter Kirk (The Outlaws), who suggested she become his spandex wearing rude MC. Inspired by this fun idea , MC Gaff E recorded her first five tracks with Thomas Bullock (of Rub n Tug) in his studio in the woods upstate New York in 2007. From there, she began rapping around Sydney, gradually expanding her gigs all around Australia then taking her show all around the world. Upon her travels, she met and collaborated with Brazil's Edu K, Sydney club king Kid Kenobi, Germany dance punk duo Digitalism and most recently, the legendary Horse Meat Disco transvestites, Jonny Woo and his crew of colourful freaks.

Performing all over the festival circuit non stop for the past 2 years, MC Gaff E and her DJ Drugmoney, have played major festivals including Glastonbury, Big Day Out, Bestival, The Big Chill and (Amsterdam's) Valtifest. Also playing renowned parties such as Broken Hearts Club in Berlin, underground disco jams run by Ed Banger's Mickey Moonlight and History Clock's Nathan Wilkins and Modular parties in both New York and London supporting KIM (The Presets), Lady Gaga and other rising stars.




So now is the time MC Gaff E and Drugmoney have returned to Australia from their most amazing European summer tour yet to release their spectacular debut album “Slug Being Sexy” produced by Thomas Bullock (aka Tommy Knockers). The album is a tour de force of punk disco electro rap and available NOW on itunes. So go for it and embrace the weird and wonderfulness of what is known as MC Gaff E and DJ Drugmoney's trannylicious technicolour psychedelic circus.

You can catch MC Gaff E and her colourful band of freaks in Sydney at the Ksubi/Picnic New Years Party at Gilligans, Field Day and the Big Day Out.

Ice Cream Monday - Featuring Tim Dart and Siran Uhrig

Making life a little more delicious - one week at a time...

Let me set the scene...

MAGNUM SANDWHICH - Poolside

Guest ice-cremologists, Tim Dart and Siran Uhrig joined me this fine evening as we took a stroll to Southbanks infamous beach.

Here we enjoyed the Magnum Sandwhich in the company of some strange, still water loving folk.



While being a fairly tasty little evening treat the Magnum failed impress the judges and left us pondering who it had really been designed for...

I'll leave the rest of the story up to the video.

Ice Cream Monday - MORE LIKE A PARTY THAN AN ICE CREAM!



Ice Cream Monday

‘Making life a little more delicious, one week at a time’

Firstly let me apologise for the lateness of this post – when you read the rest you’ll forgive me.

Priorities people. That’s all I’m saying.

Last week’s adventure to the Delizia factory at Virginia was nothing short of breathtaking.

Cass and I were met with a really cool reception over a Hazelnut Affogato and had a bit of a chat to John about what Delizia had freezing away in the back room, and there’s some really exciting stuff coming up for them; new packaging (can’t tell you what it looks like but its sexy as!).

What’s more – Ice Cream Monday are going to team up with their expert flavologists (I made that name up) to produce a little bit of limited edition history – the Ice Cream Monday Summer Special! Although its real name may change somewhere closer to when we know what it will actually be, all I can tell you now is – it’s going to blow your mind!

The suggestion box is open and true to ICM’s direction I want you to tell me what you think.

Ice Cream Monday is about sharing a little bit of that love – giving someone your last scoop, the chocolate bit in the bottom of your drumstick, or even just being the friend with sick ninja skillz to catch a falling scoop before its gets bitchumen sprinkles.

This week I’d like to introduce the lovely Emily Yeo to the blog, recently confirmed to be Chinese, Em has been undergoing quite the revelation of self and so I invited her to come and put her two 人民币 in.

This Monday began in a dark, air conditioned place, huddled in the living room wishing the memory of the night before would not die, but just leave us alone for a bit.... Stereosonic was epic, so was the afterparty, and so was the party after that... doing it sober had been quite the challenge (more on that here – www.hellosundaymorning.com) and I’ll admit, Monday was looking bleak.

UNTIL WE WENT TO WET N WILD!!!

Since the beginning of this blog I’ve been waiting for a day like this and in the wake of the flagship festival for party season, it was probably the best day ever! Despite the fact that hustling up the motivation to get down there was borderline superhuman.

Wet n Wild is still one of those places that inspires the 9year old kid inside you.
It’s got everything you could ever want, hot dogs, waterslides, ice cream, half naked girls, cheap souvenirs.... half naked girls.

So, whilst having a time out between kicking her ass on the super8 aqua racer and before we slinked away back to Calypso beach, we decided to take Summer by the balls and step it up a notch, WITH A GOLDEN FUCKING GAYTIME!



This Ice Cream was obviously invented for “break in case of party” type situations and in 30degree heat, sitting around the wave pool and being generally awesome, this was the time to bust it out.



Unfortunately the mobile Ice Cream cart we picked ours up from was a little bit on the blink and so ours were a little lacking on CRUNK CRUNCH honeycomb deal, but over all it’s still a radical ice cream.

I think Em described it as “not quite the ‘booyeah!’ kick in balls I was hoping for, but still delicious”

Sorry if I misquoted you Yeo. I’m pretty sure that’s what you said.

Monday was rad - Wet 'n' Wild is a magical place.

And back of into the middle distance I stare, dreaming of a place where Ice Cream flows from rivers high in the choc topped mountains... keep the suggestions for the SUMMER SPECIAL DELIZIA flavour coming.

<3 Peace, Love and Double-scoops <3
