SPRINGTIME!!!!

delliott101 by delliott101 · Mar 22, 2003 · Spastic · 281 views

Sorry, all you snowboarders... it's SPRING!!! One of my favorite seasons (except my allergies are gonna start killing me)... Everything is coming back to life!

What can we look forward to?More daylight! Longer service days! Flowers blooming and birds chirping! Oh, and the windows rolled down and music blaring.

Spring time is so excellent, I just had to post this as a news story. Something upbeat with all this war junk going on...

What is it? Italian Ice? I've heard of it and passd the one in Hackettstown, but never stopped by. I've heard people say it's horrible, but now I'm not sure...

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002

WHAAAT!!! HORRIBLE!? Who has told you such lies!? Could something horrible bring Mike into temptation? I think not. It's like..a view into what paradise will be like when you eat it or something.

delliott101 delliott101OG 2002

So what is it? Sorbet? Ice Cream? Italian Ice? All I know it's "Rita's" and it's a frozen something or other

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002

It's water ice..which is a mixture between perfection and ice cream. It's really hard to explain the texture of it..but it's simply amazing. Better then any ice cream ever

delliott101 delliott101OG 2002 thatdarngirl

Water Ice? Ice is made out of water, so that's redundant. So it's ice with stuff in it? I dunno.. I'll stick with Italian Ice (Not that junk you get in the store, but the real deal that you can get at some pizza places and independent ice cream stores.. soft and "creamy")

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 delliott101

That's what it is only it's called water ice..it's better then italian ice

delliott101 delliott101OG 2002 thatdarngirl

NOTHING is better than REAL Italian Ice...

forrestina forrestinaOG 2002 delliott101

we have such good italian ice at the pastry shop in Hackensack mmmmm and spumoni!

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder delliott101

it's ITALIAN ICE. cmon dave, i know you've heard of that

delliott101 delliott101OG 2002 thefunkyfresh

That's all Lindsay had to say... "Oh, it's water ice".. what the thing is THAT???

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder delliott101

yeah, its like the real deal italian ice. the really awesome soft kind. plus u can get gellati and other stuff too

delliott101 delliott101OG 2002 thefunkyfresh

Okay, then... I love Italian Ice... water ice sounds like a cup of ice with stuff in it.. gross

oobiewan oobiewanOG 2003 delliott101

dont you all get Ice Cream men over there, in their vans with their jingly music? Who do 99's with strawberry sauce and 100's and 1000's and a mini chocolate flake on it? Or rocket lollies or Twisters or Mint Feasts? Ahh the best thing about spring, jingly music, 99's and cup final weekends..

tesoro tesoroOG 2001 oobiewan

ice cream men are the best, one thing i love, is WEIRD candy...
and they always have it! like pop rocks and fun dip and all that really
sugary stuff that you look ridiculous eating..but it's so much fun.

oobiewan oobiewanOG 2003 tesoro

ahh Im glad you agree....we had this one ice cream man when we were little called Mario, he was brilliant, he looked exactly like Super Mario..all he was missing were the Red pants!! He used to give us free ice cream in the summer...awww those were the days!

skaorsk8 skaorsk8OG 2002 oobiewan

WAAAAAAIIT one second. so you had to pay for your ice cream in the winter and you got it free in the summer?? what kind of marketing is this? how did he expect to make any profit? WHAT is his public relations dept. DOING??

malibu malibuOG 2001
