With life there comes good, bad, and just plain awful days. Sometimes you just simply need a break. The solution: Ice Cream. Sometimes you need to devour something sweet and unhealthy to jump start you, so you can keep going with your hectic week. I have found that there is a perfect ice cream for almost every situation.
1. Halo Top
This is the kind of ice cream you eat when you are really into being healthy and do not want to feel guilty. Not gonna lie, there has been so many times I go to a near by Kroger to get one of these babies right after a workout and I do not regret it. This is one of those times when you just say - "Treat ya self" because you just busted your butt at the gym and your health is your number one priority afterall.
2. Ben & Jerry's
The type of ice cream you get when you are having a terrible day or your heart just got completely broken and you need to rebuild yourself. My best friend introduced me to the Half Baked flavor and let me tell ya, there is no going back. The before and after results are so worth it because once you are done consuming the entire container you feel like a brand new person. 10/10 definitely would recommend.
3. Talenti Gelato
This is definitely needed when life is just overwhelming you and you need a break. Also, if you want to try out new and different kinds of ice cream, Talenti is the way to go. They have some bomb flavors - my top two are Caribbean Coconut and Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup. Plus, they come in some pretty cute containers so it kinda makes you feel like you have your life together for a minute.
4. Baskin Robbins
Baskin Robbins is the go to when you are in a rush and you need a little extra motivation because you know.. being 19 is not necessarily the easiest at times. I mean it's the easiest and hardest times of our lives. Time just flies by with the ten million subjects we have to study for, while working at the same time, and trying to have a social life. Back to the subject, I recommend getting anything chocolate with a waffle cone. Remember you are in a rush, drive with caution (quick story, I was driving to work just eating my ice cream cone at peace until I rear ended someone due to looking down at it, so be safe kids).
5. Dairy Queen
One usually goes here to grub after a long and tough week, well maybe that is just me? If you have not done this, you gotta give it a shot. Ice cream and a side of large fries may have you feeling guilty afterwards, but not to worry because walking from class to class on Monday is gonna have you losing those extra calories in no time! Oh, I also suggest their banana splits and triple chocolate brownie sundae. For any dog owners out there, they give you a free puppy cup!
