FIC and 80's cartoons

Last night was a family day, a birthday celebration and a heavenly ice cream treat sponsored by Paolo Aguenza of DT Photography. It was unfortunate for me that I wasn't able to join them for the Red Crab dinner special in Greenhills, but I was especially delighted on the dessert segment, at where else, FIC Bar in Rockwell. Upon seeing Mitch, I was immediately excited since he's been craving for that customized FIC sugarfree Mango Ice Cream with Suman. I cannot begin to thank establishments that continue to revolutionize the world of Desserts especially for those who are medically advised to refrain from sugar. The world has been more accommodating.

Before reaching there, I vowed that I would try something new since it would be my third time, twice with Tracy and Gigi. On our first FIC Bar experience, Mitch and I only got a Rootbeer float whereas Tracy and Gigi got the Grasshopper concoction. ON the second visit, I wanted it to be guilt-free, so I ordered their frozen yogurt while Mitch experimented on Mango Suman, and loved it. ON this third visit, I'm going for a creamy fruity overload. I got the mouthwatering Peach Melba Parfait, not really a big fan of peach (yikes), so I gave the slices to my ever-reliable friend and food lover, Tracy. I was just after the peach syrup, strawberry, vanilla and mango mix.

Our conversations veered towards the usual photography subjects, to Batman (with emphasis to Christian Bale for Tracy and I) and to the wacky 80's cartoons. Tracy and I kept on cracking up when we confirmed to the more "80's teevo experts" that there was a show called MANIMAL. WTF? I am personally an 80's shows lover, but my lack of MANIMAL knowledge may be either a direct effect of its premature extinction or it was just so lame that it didn't register in my memory. Well whatever it is, I'm not expecting any movie remake soon. Some other cartoons worth mentioning on our discussion were those of Thundercats, Tiger Sharks, Karate Cat, Alvin and the Chipmunks, Dungeons and Dragons, The three versions of Voltron (which introduction's still memorized by Paolo), and She-Ra and He-man. Now those are the movie versions I'm hoping to watch in this lifetime.



80's cartoons ROCK! memories...good ones!
