Very big difference compared to my own mother (and many other moms here in Romania), who was firmly convinced that ice-cream during any time of the year that is not July or August can totally and irremediably compromise her children's health :-) .Mihaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10820331232656905046noreply@blogger.com
