"...And they admitted that they were aliens and strangers on earth. People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own. If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return. Instead, they were longing for a better country—a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them." Hebrews 11:13-16

Hmmmm...Ice cream....hmmmm.

So there is a wonderful thing that I have discovered about Sri Lanka...they make wickedly good ice cream. Not only is the ice cream creamy and smooth you can get it in a wide variety of flavors. Now they have the same kinds as home like chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, mint chocolate chip, butterscotch and the such. The cool thing is that they also have some different kinds that you wouldn't find in Canada. Flavors like ginger cookie, pineapple (with actual fruit), mango (with actual fruit, that doesn't cost an arm and a leg) and last night I tried a flavor that I am sure we'd never find in Canada...

Avocado!!! That's right folks. Last night I ate Avocado swirl ice cream. It's like chocolate swirl in that the flavor is swirled through the vanilla ice cream. It was totally weird to see green swirled through the vanilla!!

I liked it. It doesn't have a really strong flavor...it doesn't taste like guacamole for those of you who are wondering! It had a kind of nutty flavor or at least that is the best that I can describe it.

If you ever have the chance you should try some.
