double rainbow and popping candy ice cream

7 January 2011, 01:28


So in case you don’t already follow my rantings on twitter or facebook lookit double rainbow! So bright! So vivid! Double rainbow, double rainbow! Not quite all the way across the sky but still, so intense!



I missed my usual bus the other day and had to catch the bus that drops me off a whole football field away from my house. If you know me at all you would know I absolutely hate walking anywhere. Long distance running I love, but walking ugh. And oh boy was I hungry after work! I wandered into the Domino’s and a sign caught my eye- Popping candy ice cream!


For $2.95 it was ok, a relatively creamy chocolate ice cream with chocolate covered popping candy. I was kinda hopping there was gonna be a layer of pop rocks on top of the ice cream instead of them being buried in the ice cream. But eh a cheap snack for the loooong walk home haha


And here let’s end with a pic of some egg tarts from Ho’s Dim Sim Kitchen (451 Pitt Street, Haymarket) which were only one freaking dollar each woohoo!

 

 

  1. Long distance running? You is crazy. Popping candy ice cream – now that I understand! And egg tarts! It’s been so long….

  15. You could of run and pretended it was a long way? Though hard to do when scoffing ice cream LOL

  16. I would’ve hoped for more poppy candy too. And the egg tarts look so good, and they’re so cheap!

  19. laughs The funny part is that even though I know I don’t like the popping sensation, I absolutely would/will buy this if/when I see it!

  21. I still haven’t tried those egg tarts but every time I’ve walked past there’s been a massive queue which means they must be seriously good!

  22. I love rainbows, especially double rainbows! I wish I saw it too :( I also love popping candy but am not such a fan of dominos desserts. I agree that the layer of popping candy on top would be best, maybe even multiple layers through the icecream…. hmmmm….

  23. Dominos makes what now? I need to go there to (a) get some and (b) ask Mr Domino Man how they get the popping candy to stay nice and crisp in the icecream. I’ve always wondered…
