Violet set up shop in the living room today, pretending to sell ice cream, of a sort, today, scooping it out of a bead-jewelry-making set, naming the different collections of beads according to flavors she dreamt up on the spot.
Here we have, according to Vi: strawberry heart, vanilla-lime, and smashed strawberry. Other flavors on the menu were smashed orange, and, well, more smashed strawberry. Gotta say I’m pleased to detect in her imagined ice cream a rustic, artisanal gelato-like theme.
