I was over at mom's the other day and we were watching this show. It was called "The History of Ice Cream" and it was all about different ice creams and how they're made. The show featured an upscale ice cream parlor in New York, called Serendipity 3. They have all sorts of flowery desserts, I'd love to go there sometime, to be honest. However, one of the dishes they serve is known for being the most expensive ice cream in the world. It was called something like the "Golden Opulent Sundae" and it cost 1000$.

It consisted of golden foil wrapped vanilla ice cream in a golden foiled crystal goblet with both the rarest and most expensive chocolates, gold leafed orchids, passion fruit flavored caviar, and a dusting of gold flakes. Anyway, they showed this lady who was eating one.

She said excitedly that it was her birthday and it was her birthday present to herself. She was all alone at this big table, save the camera crew, eating a 1000$ sundae, on her birthday. Is it weird that it made me sad? I mean, a successful jewelry designer, but all alone on her birthday...in fact, the sundae was a present from herself. I don't have money for a 1000$ sundae, but I know that if I did, there wouldn't be any point in ordering it if none of my friends or family were there to share it with me.
