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
