‘Tis the season

Hello Lover.

Right around this time of year, I meet my absolutely favourite ice cream ever nemesis.

Presidents Choice Candy Cane Ice Cream.

One would like to think that I can exercise some self control with this stuff in the house, but I absolutely cannot. I can hear it taunting me from the freezer: “Ammmmmmmmmmmmy, come and eat me”

I’ve caught myself MANY times sneaking a spoonful or 7 right out of the container.

Some might like to say “Why Amy, why don’t you just NOT buy any?”

Sounds easy enough, right? WRONG! What makes this problematic is that I find myself close to it almost everyday as my gym is located in a Loblaws. And if you think it taunts me from my freezer at home, you should hear it taunt me at the store. “Ammmmmmmmmmmmy, you just burned a million calories. Come and take me to your palace”

Sometimes I even catch myself thinking about it mid-workout. Yes, this is true.

Its a perfect combination of minty, chocolately, creamy deliciousness.

Admittedly, I’m not a huge fan of the holidays. But this my friends, makes my holiday season just a little brighter.

My name is Amy, and I’m a Candy Cane Ice Cream Addict.

Ohhhhhh! I may have to make a trip to the superstore or Loblaw's tomorrow! Have you ever had the Birthday Sprinkle Cake ice cream they make? Also tasty.

Never had this...don't wanna.....if I get something like this I realllly like I will do anything to justify eating it.

I have the same problem, a container might last the weekend in our house.

I think it's hands-down my fav ice cream.

It's my all-time favourite ice cream! I've already gone through one container of it and am really trying not to buy any more this season!

I'm obsessed with the "snow" ice cream. I remember eating it as a child while watching all those awful claymation Santa movies!
