  • PSA: simplified (Updated: save the honey bees)

    five

    In life I’ve been a big proponent of simplifying, whether it be through organization, design, really just all around if possible. Though I never thought that this would relate to one of my most favorite vices of all time. Yes, that’s right Ice Cream! I love me some ice cream… DQ Blizzards, Ben and Jerry’s, Coldstone and my all time favorite was Capagiro Gelati… yummy yummy in my tummy. But the other day I went to my local grocer to pick up some desserts for the rents’ birthdays and as I was strolling through the frozen foods area I came across an anomaly. A newish product by Häagen-Dazs called five, consisting of only five ingredients; milk, cream, eggs, sugar and, in my case, mint.

    Now, I have to say that usually I go for the crazy flavors with tons of random, but tasty, ingredients, but this intrigued me and I am so glad that it did, because I can honestly say that this was the most amazing ice cream I have ever experienced. I can describe it in two words light and refreshing. Unlike other ice creams it satiated my ice cream craving but didn’t leave me with that awful heavy feeling.

    Wow, um, this really sounds like some sort of infomercial. I’m sorry about that, but it’s soooo good! Well in the words of Vince the ShamWow/Slap Chop guy, “you’re gonna love my nuts”

    Update 1: While I was looking for more info on Five, I found this cute little flash site on saving honey bees

    Update 2: Here is some info on colony collapse disorder …craziness! We need to save these tiny guys so I can have my ice cream! Save Honey Bees = Save Ice Cream!
