A summer gift

Day after day, come what will, come what may, it keeps on being way too hot!
Even in the early morning, the summer sunshine from the east makes our house very hot.
And on such a morning, we received frozen strawberries filled with ice cream from my sister. Is it a product I’ve recently been seeing at Net shops? Is it one we’d never buy for ourselves? I called my sister to say thanks, and she agreed that she’d never buy such an expensive thing for herself.

Chris said it made him recall the song ‘Ice Ice Baby’ (by Vanilla Ice), which got stuck in his head. Then he forced me to look at the song’s video, for some strange reason like family duty. However, I didn’t know the song at all, so only the part of the melody from ‘Under Pressure’ (by Queen & David Bowie) repeated in my brain. Anyway, that melody didn’t become a problem when the song was released? It’s not similar, it’s exactly the same!

I must say, on behalf of Chris, that he has never liked the song called ‘Ice Ice Baby’!
