Vince bought Christmas Cookie ice cream the other day . . Blue Bell, of course. Last year they came out with it and it was a huge hit and shortly after Halloween, there was none to be found and desperate people do desperate things so Blue Bell assured us there would be plenty this year but I still felt a bit of panic when I heard that Christmas Cookie ice cream was out and we hadn’t had any yet.
A while ago, Vince said “Do you want ice cream?” I said “We’re going to eat in about an hour. We should wait, don’t you think?” Vince said “When you’re old, you can do what you want!”

So . . we had ice cream and then we had dinner. What a wonderful life! 🙂

Life is short, eat desert first. That’s my mantra at times.
Dot Murdoch says
I do like Vince’s attitude…….
Carolyn says
Yes, I was often told it’s too cold eat ice cream. There is no such thing as too cold for Blue Bell!!!
Kaye says
Every now and then my husband & I order sundaes first! After a certain age, it’s permitted! Go for it!
Wanda Jordan says
Now a diabetic educator once told me to eat dessert first then food. That way your sugar doesn’t spike twice only once with the dessert . So just look at eating your ice cream first was good for you .

Vince was right this time, I think. I don’t even see Blue Bell around here very often. I’ll have to make a point of looking for this one. Maybe Wal-Mart? There’s a grocery only not far from me and I can tolerate going in that one. =)
Nelle Coursey says
I think that is a terrific idea! Life is too short not to have dessert first!!
Bon says
Life I should uncertain, eat dessert first is my motto.
Bon says
Autocorrect is at it again. Should be “Life is uncertain, eat dessert first.”

Vince is a smart person. He knows so much.
Vivian Oaks says
Yes, excellent plan!! Vince really out-did himself this time!! He’s exactly right – when we get older we’re allowed to eat dessert first!! Wish I had the guts to do that more… except I would have had enough after dessert, and wouldn’t have room for the meal . Maybe i should try that – eat dessert instead of a meal… maybe i could lose some weight!!!
JEAN says
Vince is smart!

Joyce says
And occasionally dessert instead of dinner is ok too! 😉 I really wish we could get Blue Bell ice cream around here!

I apply this attitude to many things. Eat when and what I want, get up of a morning when I wake up with no alarm anymore, sit all day and read if I want and go when I want or just stay at home for days and days. Looks like Vince is catching on to this retirement thing.
