    You reminded me of someone who said:`Enjoy the ice cream served upon the dish.' I nice commenter @ UT said:`Eat pistachio, vanilla, chocolate, rocky road, butter pecan, and do enjoy a waffle cone before the cone becomes soggy. I hate drips of nutty buddy on my keyboard. So, Eat sorta hurriedly before you/anybody 'kicks a rusty trash can'... Enjoy the bowl before the ice cream melts. I hate ice cream headaches.

    Eating the ice cream bowl is indigestible.

    Gwendolyn Brooks- said this. C.T.s idea.

    `Exhaust the little moments. Soon it dies.

    `And be it gash, or gold, it will not come,

    `Again in an identical disguise-G. Brooks.
