JENN McKINLAY: Today is National Vanilla Ice Cream Day! Hurray! Yes, this means you can have ice cream for dinner. You're welcome! And, by the way, if vanilla ice cream is your favorite, it means you’re impulsive!
Of course it’s 100% true because I read it in a Reader's Digest online story! I know we have some unusual flavors out there thanks to Julia's Fast Five a few days ago but maybe you'll find yourself on this list. The breakdown:
Vanilla = Impulsive
Strawberry = Introvert
Chocolate = Flirtatious
Mint Chocolate Chip = Argumentative
Rainbow Sherbert = Pessimistic
Rocky Road = Aggressive
Coffee = Dramatic
Chocolate Chip = Generous
Butter Pecan = Conscientious
Normally, I think these online lists are bogus, but this is where it gets a little crazy. In my house, we happen to have two strawberry ice cream lovers and both are introverts. There is also a mint chocolate chip lover, who from the time he could talk (at six months – very early with full sentences -- mostly, we believe, so he could yell at us) who is the poster child of a born debater. And, lastly, a coffee flavor lover who is just a little bit “extra” at times. Yes, that’s me, the (ahem) dramatic one.
