The CK Daily – A Sweet Start to Summer
Happy Wednesday, everyone! It’s midweek again, and it’s already the last week of February. This month really just flew by in the blink of an eye, don’t you think?
This week in my area, we’ve started to feel the warmer weather. I think we’re now transitioning into the summer season here in the Philippines. For me, summer is the season of halo-halo, one of our well-loved Filipino desserts. Aside from halo-halo, I once tried fried ice cream. At first, I didn’t believe it was possible. Ice cream and then deep-fried? Seriously? How? I had so many questions. To satisfy my curiosity, we looked for a restaurant that served it and tried it ourselves. Honestly, I was so surprised. It really was ice cream inside a crispy coating.
I’m always amazed by people who have such creative and exploratory mindsets, willing to create and try something new. My next dessert to try is chili ice cream. I haven’t found an ice cream shop or restaurant nearby that offers it yet, but the search is still on.
How’s the weather in your area these days?
