Food Therapy: My Love For Ice Cream Is My Father's Fault

When I was the tender age of 1 month old, my father fed me ice-cream to see how his baby girl would react.  Apparently, I loved it and have been loving it ever since.

I recently asked him what he was thinking because I'm pretty sure you shouldn't be feeding ice-cream to a 1 month old baby.  His answer was a classic: it's non-sense that made perfect sense.  He said, "What's the big deal?  I just wanted to see if you would like ice-cream.  Beside I didn't feed you the hard kind of ice-cream.  A baby can't have hard ice-cream.  I gave you soft serve from Dairy Queen.  A baby eats only soft foods."

Mmm...how can someone be such a good and bad father simultaneously?  So yes, I blame my life-long love affair with ice-cream (and apparently it really is practically life-long) on my father.

When did you have your first taste of ice-cream?
