Libraries and Ice-Cream
How can I not mention the goal of creating a library inspired Ben & Jerry’s flavor? Such great combination of library, Vermont (the home of Ben and Jerry’s) and ice cream (that wonderful sweet treat which I have failed to eat more often lately). I am personally fond of the first suggestion from the above post, that being Gooey Decimal System: Dark fudge alphabet letters with caramel swirls in hazelnut ice cream. Just sounds delightful. make it happen Ben & Jerry’s!
On another library note, I just realized that The Go-Between’s song “Karen” is about a librarian with the wondrous lines and references to literary greats:
I know this girl
This very special girl
And she works in a library, yeah
Standing there behind the counter
Willing to help
With all the problems that I encounterHelps me find Hemingway
Helps me find Genet
Helps me find Brecht
Helps me find Chandler
Helps me find James Joyce
She always makes the right choice
Awesome stuff really
