drip

does anyone know how to eat an ice cream cone? i need tips.

i rarely eat them. but today was inpired by the film "little manhattan" to grab a yummy haagen dazs rocky road waffle cone. only to remind myself that i have no idea how to work the things. instead of the quaint image of wandering the streets lapping the chocolate-marshmallow-nutty treat, i found a different reality.

my hair blew into the cone, becoming sticky with chocolate ice cream. the ice cream quickly dripped down the sides of the waffle cone drenching my fingers. the cone became soggy. my lips and cheeks painted brown with smeared chocolate.

that spare napkin definitely came in handy.
