9 Paddle Pops 'til Winter

At one stage before Australia day my freezer contained almost 50 Paddle Pops. For weeks they were grazed until the heatwave made them staples. Since then the supply has dwindled and today I opened the last box. Sure, it's still sunny and the long range forecasts of rain always seem to remain.. long range, but I can't ignore it. It will be ANZAC day soon, it will start raining and for six months I'll forget what Paddle Pops taste like.
Next time I go shopping I'm checking for multibuy specials on soup.

You know what is good about the onset of winter! Football! And you know what that means! An AFL Dream Team! Only 15 days, 22 hours and 37 minutes to go!

I maintain rainbow is clearly the greatest of the Paddle Pop flavours. Do you ever have the problem though when you get through the ice cream and there is the gross feeling of licking the stick? If they could somehow market them with plastic sticks (to take away the fear of tongue splinters) they would be so much better than they already are.

I'm more of a sucker than a licker. I might try rainbow again, next summer.

I love trees. They're tall and stoic, so I relate to them. I feel a sense of serenity and belonging when walking beneath an ancient forest canopy and that is not just because most ancient forest canopies I've walked under have been adjacent to a thriving craft beer industry
