We All Scream for ‘Strawberries and Ice Cream’!

Let’s get real, it’s not that cool in Baguio City anymore.  *sigh.  The -ber months are in and I still haven’t taken my trusty comforter out from storage.  With this strange extension of warmer days, a great way to cool down is to eat ice cream.  (Though some say that ice cream can warm you up like soup can, it can still provide for a moment’s comfort of beating the heat. =D)

Wood Nymph: Satisfaction Guaranteed!
