the one

I'm looking for my perfect ice cream eating partner.
It will have to be someone with whom I can order double scoops on a cone and share, with two spoons. Chocolate brownie with butter pecan. Cookies&Cream with peach.  Mocha mudslide with mint chocolate chip. They will have to enjoy quirky flavor mixing.
They shouldn't eat too fast. There needs to be time for savoring. For a little conversation and a little silence. For smiling with cold lips.
They will have to enjoy their ice cream. It's not just a food. It's an experience. And when I meet someone who feels the same way -- that's when I'll know.    I've found The One.

It's almost the end of summer. These are the kinds of things I think about.
