I scream, You scream, we all scream for ice cream!


Yes, I know the title is not terribly original…but I finally finished another post and updated the food blog.  This time it’s about Ici ice cream, a small artisan ice cream parlor in Berkeley.  They always change their flavors (with the exception of chocolate and vanilla), and offer interesting choices such as Bourbon Salted Pecan, Honey Chamomile, Persimmon Brandied Currant, Chicory Cinnamon, Saffron Coconut, Earl Grey, and Oatmeal Chocolate Chip!  
God, I could go on forever about them…and every time, I’m just so tempted to get all 10 scoops of the day.  What’s so amazing about them is that it tastes exactly as it sounds!  (Though obviously I haven’t tried their curry flavored one…so I’m not sure).
Their ice cream is light and icy more than rich and creamy, but that suits me just fine (I feel like I’m eating less calories, hehe).  If you’re interested, click here to read about it!
I've been waiting for chapter 6 of Dear Brother to pop up...but it's still not out yet...tsk tsk.  I also picked up a new manga series called Otoyomegatari the other day, and omg...the art is gorgeous!  Even though some pages have nothing but pictures, I feel like nothing is wasted.  It's not meant to be a fast story in terms of plot movement, but it feels very natural...and omg, did I mention the art?  The drawings for the clothes, each patterned fabric, no matter how small the panel is, is painstakingly detailed.  It's definitely a change of pace from light titles like Hapi Mari, but so worth the read.
