Episode 21: Ice Cream Soup
When I was little we used to have competitions at the dinner table. One was icecream soup. This is where we would mix our icecream to a liquid ... See animation.
My brothers and I were not allowed to make soup out of our ice cream. My father wouldn't allow it. We had to make ice cream soup in secret.
Now that I'm an adult I can't imagine what was his problem with ice cream soup!!

For contests, he won the ear wiggling, while I won the raising one eyebrow at a time, as well as the all important reciting the alphabet backwards.
Posted by: jimbuh at August 14, 2004 10:51 AMI remember that many many children I was friends with would make ice cream soup. I HATED it. I felt then, and still feel, like I was missing some kind of essential child gene.Why did I hate ice cream soup? I still don't know. I also liked to eat my oreos in one piece (after separating to see if I could perfectly get the top off without ripping the center, in which case you get to make a wish, I would then reassemble the cookie).
