Ice cream...

or just anything cold.... as it is soooo hot!! and tomorrow even hotter; 38 degrees celsius (100 fahrenheit). but i only notice it during the short stretch from home to subway and back as everywhere else the airconditioners are working at full speed... wearing an extra jacket at work to keep warm! isnt that weird....
just read on wikipedia that in the persian empire, 500 BC, something like ice cream was already served. when it was hot, people would pour grape juice concentrate over snow and eat this as a treat.  either snow would be saved in the cool-keeping underground chambers or taken from fresh snow that still remained at the top of the mountains by the summer... want to read more about ice cream? go here; then i goto sleep now... good night!
