When I was little, I picked the good stuff out of my ice cream and ate it first - cherries, chunks of cookie dough, chocolate chips, bubble gum, all got consumed before the ice cream surrounding them.

When I was a teen, I picked the good stuff out of the ice cream, ate the ice cream quickly, and then savoured the good stuff. I was an enthusiastic proponent of the maxim that the best should be saved for last.

As an adult, I eat each spoonful with relish, whether or not it has any cherries in it. The creamy ice cream, the sweet flavours, and the chocolate morsels get consumed as they come up on my spoon, each enjoyed for what it is.

I still, however, try to save one cherry for last.
