Ice Cream vs. Fresh Fruit

I hate the mall. Let me start off with that. 


I'm not the girl who likes to go shopping. 
Not the girl who could spend hours in the mall. 
Not the girl who likes to try on clothes and carry tons of shopping bags around like I'm Cher from Clueless.
NOT the girl who would even brave the mall on a SATURDAY AFTERNOON! 

No. 

I'm the girl who always has a plan. Goes in with a list of things I NEED to get. Then I'm done. 

Yesterday I decided to just spend some time with the roommates (A.K.A: parents) and head to the mall with them. No reason really. But felt adventurous. :)


As we walked around the very crowded mall I found myself feeling like a 12 year old girl again when we came up to the ice cream store. Begging my mom for a sweet treat, we walked over and I got some frozen yogurt and she sampled her favourite, "Rum Raisin" 


Walking around the mall enjoying my cold treat I heard a man's voice right beside me. I turned to my right and saw the MOST ATTRACTIVE man I have ever seen in my life! I was focused on him I realized we were in step together. Mr. Hunky was on the phone when he looked over to me and pointed to my face. I looked back and flashed a smile his way saying, "sorry what?" To which he in then pulled his phone off his ear and said, "um, you have something on your face." and kept walking. 


There I stood. Man of my dreams walking away while I wiped the raspberry frozen yogurt off my face. 


Sigh. 


About a few minutes later I bumped into some friends. 
Introducing my friends to my mom, my one friend was explaining to me how hungry she was and had to stop to get a fruit smoothie. 


My mom turns to her and says, "Thats great hunny. But you should really try and eat fruit in it's original form. A real banana, or apple. Orange." My sweet friend looked at Carol like, huh? Partly because she probably couldn't understand what she was saying because of my moms slight accent. Or that moms was talking softly. 


When I clued into what my mom was saying, I turned to her and said, "This said by the woman who's eating rum raisin ICE CREAM!" 


My mom replied with, "Camitshka! I have been craving this for years!" 


Right ma. Right!




The trials of the Boodhoo woman!
