So, one spoonful lights up the happy zone.
I like this sentence very much, it somehow makes me feel optimistic.
I often mention unmenschables. How's your feet?

Hmmm, yes too good a sentence for me to have made up. I have the awful feeling some quotation marks ran off - crikey, I'm a plagiarist :?
See article ' How ice-cream tickles the brain' - by David Adam, the Guardian, 29/4/05 - where he quotes Don Darling of Unilever.

I wonder if he was inspired by Mary Poppins - she has a lot to answer for - with her spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down in a most delightful way. Sponsored by Tate and Lyle ?
What about people who don't like icecream? Especially not vanilla???

You were very specific about the study applying to vanilla icecream. I can't really think of anything I enjoy licking right now.

Remind me, Marjoram, what significance do my feet have in all this?

No matter, regardless of who's sentence it is, henceforth whenever my happy zone lights up I will think fondly of you.

Your feet are, of course, of great significance in the matter of rambling. And...er...that woz whot my thoughts were doing...er...about how...er...blistery bloody body appendages might have replaced your very soul...after a lengthy walk. If it happened.

Yes, of course, I'd forgotten about that. Yes I did tag along with the wandering pensioners the other evening, it was a rare and refreshing experience for me to be among a group of people and be one of the youngest. We only went about three miles so the feet are fine, they are doing an eleven miler tomorrow -the mad fools-, I haven't decided yet if I'm going to be foolish enough to join them.
