It's the Godzilla of ice cream cones!

I don't actually like posting pictures of myself on my blog, I think it detracts from the food in some way, but someone *wink* asked for a picture of the monstrosity of an ice cream cone that I got at 淡水 (Dan Shui) on one of my trips there. You'll have to ignore the goofy bald kid in the rowing shirt... he's just there to act as a scale. Anyhoo, apparently these things originate from 逢甲夜市 (Feng Jia Night Market), but when I got one there... all I got was a monstrosity of fail. Number 1, it was 25 NT... number 2, it barely topped 10". Well, I gave a different shop a chance since it was only 15 NT (less than 50 cents) and they certainly made good. From tip of peak to top of cone, this beauty measured in at just around 18". To boot, they had way more varieties, including mango, green tea, red bean, and taro, and every combination swirl of those in addition to the plain chocolate and vanilla. I personally went with green tea and taro, which would explain the green and purple swirl.

On an unrelated note, I don't know if I've been a really good student, or a really poor blogger. I've neglected posting for senior projects. Look forward to new posts now that I'm on Spring break and have nothing better to do! In other news, I'll have the great (dis?)pleasure of announcing which graduate school I plan to attend in a few weeks. Maybe I'll make it a poll option and let my readers choose my fate haha. Have I mentioned I make poor life choices?
