I take my spoon and dip in
Enjoy the smooth creamy vanilla
Then notice a difference …
Is that a little salty chocolate close by?
The next spoon confirms
Oh my 🙂 …
Yes … there’s a weave of solid chocolate here
With just a touch of salt!
As my palette anticipates what might be next
My spoon hits what appears to be a large chunk of chocolate
Or is it?…
My eyes look closer as my spoon traces the outline.
It reminds me of a Hershey’s kiss.
Curiosity aroused, I bring it to my mouth
and place it on my tongue.
Gently pressing down between my teeth
I crack open the dark chocolate and find
A silky smooth peanut butter center.
Oh my 🙂 …
The mouth experience and taste is almost complete.
Just one more spoonful …
As I reach for the spoon and begin to lose myself
in the blissful moment of sensation,
in the flavors, textures, comfort and gratitude.
Its called Nelson’s Dutch Farms Ice Cream
From Royersford, PA
There motto is “Nix Besser”
Darn right!!

I could write about all life analogies here but I think this time I will just back and enjoy the ice-cream 🙂

Reminds me of the new Ben & Jerry’s “core” offerings. I love their Karamel Sutra. While an odd pairing perhaps, decadence and tempatation can create space in which to sense and reflect. Pleasingly. 🙂
