"My favorite ice cream flavor is
the most delicious thing on earth!
It is a super bright blue color. My
ice cream also kind of tastes like
peppermint toothpaste but it's
not toothpaste at all! Then hidden
inside, it has brown chunks of
sweet chocolatey goodness! Can
you guess my favorite kind of ice
cream? Of course! It's the best
kind, chocolate mint!"

"The local ice cream factory has
been so busy lately! They have
needed to hire 200 new workers
just this week. Every day they sell
250,000 pints of delicious ice
cream. When you look at the front
door, there is always a giant line
of customers ready for their icy
treat. If you are wanting to take a
trip there, I highly suggest you get
there early to be in line first. Their
ice cream is so good!"
