All my good friends know how much I love ice cream. I almost always have ice cream at home. And alongside chocolate, it is my number one weakness! I can never ever say no to ice cream (and chocolate). So of course I was super delighted when my favourite magazine asked me to do some ice cream drawings and collages for them. Oh yay! Only problem is, it makes me think of ice cream all the time! So fun but not such a good thing for someone like me!So, ice cream aside, I'm a big time chocoholic too. I 100% identify with this post of Anna's. These days, Woolworths, Big W and IGA all have my favourite Cadbury bars on sale. 2 for $5! So bad, very bad. I have been trying very, extremely hard to gather my brain's worth of willpower and tell myself not to cave in and buy any chocolate or ice cream. Stress makes me eat a whole bar of chocolate. Yes a whole big bar. Not the tiny one serving bar. My brain thinks that's kid-size. It wants to go for an adult-sized bar, which means the entire big bar. Not good!
I've been trying to not eat any ice cream or chocolate at all. So far so good. I think the last ice cream I had was last week? And the last bit of chocolate was a small teeny baby block my friend offered me. It was small and super tiny, it wasn't even kid-size. It was more like a new-born baby size. My brain wants more, but my muffin-top says no.
reading this made my mouth water.

I love all your drawings Dawn - they are just delightful! Love, love, LOVE the colours too! I really like pictures with annotations on them (I do this in my sketchbook and often prefer my annotated pics than the finished ones). Anyway you have succeeded in making me feel like fluffy yummy ice cream now :D
ReplyDeleteooh i love those ben and jerrys! irresistible, aren't they? :)
ReplyDeleteChocolate and ice cream are a vice in itself! Baskin Robbins' World Class Chocolate is the best! Dark Chocolate and White Chocolate Mousse ice cream. Omg craving it right now!
ReplyDeleteOh Dawn what lovely drawings! Nice ones on the kit products in this round's issue of Frankie too. You do know lots of other people love Baby One More Time too but just don't want to admit it! Ha ha ;)

PS:I follow you!
I read this while eating chocolate - which just made it all the more satisfying! :) I love ice cream as well, but especially gelato. The smoother the better!
ReplyDeleteMy muffin top never says no to chocolate, and who am I to argue?
ReplyDeleteLove your ice-creams Dawn! Let me know which magazine you will be, I will try and buy it :)
