In the beginning...
I remember during my early childhood, a birthday party was commenced in my honor at the age of 4 or 5 years old. For some strange reason, I can't remember anything before that. To my knowledge, there is no scientific evidence that shows a person can remember back as far as a certain age but, I remember this particular birthday party because of the Cake & Ice cream me and my cousins shared around mom's kitchen table. Till this day, I have friends that say they can remember their early childhood for example, events when they were 2 years old. Not me! I remember the moist and delicious yellow cake with thick butter cream frosting and strawberry and vanilla ice cream that was so cold it froze my two buck teeth in the front. This was no normal fat kid birthday party. I mean, don't get me wrong, my cousins were there (I had enough cousins to start an army) and my cake had Indy 500 race cars on it, but this was the beginning of something big, something extraordinary, something that changed my life for ever. This birthday party was were I learned that mixing ice cream and cake together was such a succulent treat, and it kept my two buck teeth from getting a cold shock. I think I should have had a patent before all of the Ice Cream companies started to put cookie and cake pieces in their Ice Cream. With all of their corporate dollars and shareholder investments, they are stingy with the cookie and cake pieces in the little cup of ice cream. On several occasions, I had one of those "Big Name" cups of Cookies n' Cream ice cream and all that was in their was a lump of cookie in it and the rest was ice cream. I was so pissed, that I was cussing the ice cream out and still eating it at the same time. I could picture myself going to those schmucks at the "Big Name" ice cream factory and peeing on their leg (just kidding). If I just wanted ice cream, I would of bought the brand that was $3 cheaper and in a bigger size than the "Big Name" brand. No one does the mixing of Ice Cream and Cake mixing better than me. Till this day, my 8 year old has picked up this habit and does it himself. WOW! Isn't life sweet?
