My sister came down last week and I met up with her and a few other cousins last night at Sunway Pyramid. We decided to have dinner at TGIF and we ordered quite a bit of food which I dug into with a vengeance cos I was so hungry waiting for my sister who turned up about 2 hours later than originally planned. They came from KL and were stuck in the infamous KL crawl.
Well, the dinner was fine but when it came time to order desserts, ice cream was the first choice but I was so stuffed by then that I couldn't even put a single spoonful of ice cream in my mouth :*( Note to self :~ Must remember not to eat like a pig anymore before the desserts arrive! But I'm not complaining cos the dinner in itself was pretty good and we didn't even have to pay a single cent for it! *Whopee*
My two boys had a time of their life and the moment they arrived home, they headed straight to dreamland. The amount of ice cream the two of them had, it would have lasted them 2 lifetimes. But I was just too full to eat anything else even though I was craving for the ice cream.
And speaking of ice cream, I wish I could join the Awesome Coldstone Contest that's being organized by Coldstone Creamery. Unfortunately it's only for US residents, which by the way includes both Guam and Puerto Rico as well. And make sure you are between the ages of 13 to 19 years old.
It's a pretty simple and fun contest, all you'd need to do is whip up an ingenious ice cream creation of your own using the ingredients found at any Coldstone Creamery, give it a clever little name and let your family or buddies try it out, then get them to vote for it online. Nothing more to it. I told you it was simple didn't I?
So, kids, what are you waiting for? The contest runs until the 31st of December and with a prize money of USD30,000, why wait, get out there now and start creating already. Who knows, yours could be the winning creation!
I love Cold Stone ice cream!
ReplyDeleteWhy do these great contests always have to be in the US of A? What about us over here? I'm sure I could whip up an interesting enough ice cream concoction that won't poison anyone ... LOL! And I could use the USD30K ...
ReplyDeleteBaguskan contest ni, Nessa? I wish our very own 'Walls' buat contest yang macam gini!! Suda tentu saya join!
ReplyDeleteTGIF is fantastic and seriously I wish I could participate this contest as I've a name in my mind, "SweetDora", hehehe...
ReplyDeleteWish you and your family a Merry Kotobian Tadau Kaamatan
ReplyDeleteHi Stefani! Welcome to Mumblings :) I've never tried Stone Cold ice cream before, I haven't seen it being sold here. My favorite is definitely Haagen Daz but it's so expensive! But the taste is divine :D
ReplyDeleteNick ~ Hmmm, that you have to ask the company. Yes, the prize money is really 'attractive'... I could do a lot with USD30K! Shopping and more shopping!!!!
ReplyDeleteEmila ~ Lebih dari bagus esp. the prize money :) Ya, Walls patut ada contest yang macam ni, saya pun nak join juga! Walaupun I tak pandai buat ice cream... hehehe
ReplyDeleteDora ~ Would you believe that was the 1st time I ever step into TGIF?!! Kuno betul ya... hehehe. 'SweetDora' is a lovely and yummy name for an ice cream... what are the flavors??

ReplyDeleteYaaayyy~!! So you finally tried TGIF!!! I hope you liked it! I had Tony Roma's a few days ago and even tho I was already full, I just had to have the chocolate avalanche!! I'm just a sucker for dessert especially ice cream!
ReplyDeleteKotobian Tadau Kaamatan to you, your hubby and the boys! :) Hope you had a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteTGIF?? Masa mengandung Allie dulu, I so mengidam the chocolate malta cake, kesian lah my husband have to go to subang parade first before flying over to KK. And how he hates going to shopping malls. No matter how small or near it is. LOL!
Aunty J ~ Happy Harvest Festival to you too! :) Sepa la yang nokounduk ngadau? Dari Penampang ka?
ReplyDeleteYay! Another ice-cream lover :)
Hi Osindak! Kotobian Tadau Kaamatan kumaa doid diau om kohominan. Eh, harap butul sia punya Kadazan, lama inda prektis...
ReplyDeleteWah, best byk geng... nanti kita buli buat ice-cream party... hehehe
Syura ~ I had Jack Daniel's beef... I think I was kinda 'stoned' after the hearty meal! LOL I'd never miss dessert but that night I was exceptionally full... ruginya :*(
ReplyDeleteShemah ~ Thank you dear :) I wished we were back home in Penampang. Couldn't get leave la... Oh well, hopefully next year we'll make it.
ReplyDeleteSia paling inda suka kana suruh capat2 masa shopping. What's the point kan? Eh, di KK tiada TGIF ka? Somebody should open, mesti laku tu :)
I agreed with your *Note to self :~ Must remember not to eat like a pig anymore before the desserts arrive! LOL ;-)
ReplyDeleteNessa! What did u have at TGIF? :)
ReplyDeleteWe always plan to order dessert, but after the appetizer and main dish, we will be too full for dessert. Next time just order dessert first he he! :)
Err..im not a fan of ice-cream. But if i suddenly tiakan mo makan...the Caprilla ice-cream in chocolate flavor is my favorite. Hehe...mura2 punya ice-cream ni...sinang seja mo dapat, pigi seja Gaya Street every Sunday, gerenti jumpa tu 'aiskrim bergerak' yg jual caprilla ice-cream. Hehe...
ReplyDeleteMonica ~ I keep reminding myself the same thing, but I forget everything every time I face good food! Perhaps I should stick the note on my forehead so other people remind me instead :)
ReplyDeleteMarzie ~ I had the Jack Daniel's beef steak, complete with mashed potatoes with cheese, very rich... I couldn't even finish it. The beef was medium well, suggested by the splendid and friendly waiter :)
ReplyDeleteI actually asked for well done but he said it'll taste like 'selipar' LOL Lucky I listened bcoz the beef was just perfect and yummy. I definitely want to order it again, and I'll make sure I'll order dessert first!
Carol ~ Eh, I used to buy Caprilla ice-cream everytime sia pi Centrepoint atau Wisma Merdeka dulu. I think suda 5 tahun sia inda pigi Gaya Street Fair... balik nanti sia misti mo pigi :D
ReplyDeleteI'm craving the ice cream right now. My favorite all time ice cream is Monkey busines, Banana flavor with lots of chocolate stuff.
ReplyDeleteHi Mattyboy! Welcome to Mumblings :) I live in the tropics so I don't mind having ice cream everyday. If only it doesn't contribute so much to my waist line!
ReplyDeleteI wonder how Monkey Business ice cream taste like... but I don't fancy bananas though. Now chocolate is my ultimate favorite :D
