There's Always Time For An Ice Cream!
This month's 
So how does the contest work?
How To Enter
All you need to do is write a >250 word post by the 9th November 2020 with #yourtop3 as one of the first 5 tags - full information on how to enter is in Q's introduction post here.
There is an entry fee (the non-HP half of your post payout) which gets contributed to the various prize pools but Q will be along to guide you the rest of the way!
Last Contest Is Next Month
I want to say a big thanks to everyone who's embraced the spirit of the contest and got involved with it. We (
Since we started this open-to-all community contest in March 2019, we've given out nearly $300 HBD to various prize winners who got involved and many folks received decent curation from voluntary sponsors and whales across that time! We're pretty happy with that!
However, when Q said he'd be setting sail at the end of December for the trip of a life time, we were sad that the Your Top 3 contest will be coming to an end next month but, well, we were all under the spell of that enthralling mascot and he's made his decision!
My Top 3 Ice Creams
I don't know about you but ice creams take me to a happy place whether I associate them with going on holiday or just providing a laden of cold sugary comfort in a tough moment in life. Needless to say, it was pretty difficult to narrow it down to a top 3 but there's no denying I'm a massive chocolate fan so that has heavily influenced my choices below!
My nominations aren't included in the contest dpoll later in the month but I'll be contributing the liquid half of the post payout to the prize pool
Ben & Jerry's Cookie Dough
Holy shiiiiii! I remember my first dose of this sugary hit at Uni when one of my housemates just wouldn't stop going on about Ben & Jerry's so I was like, "OK then, let's do this". One spoonful was all it needed and damn, she didn't see that tub for the rest of the evening haha! I can't remember the film we watched in the flat (probably Shaun of the Dead 
That perfect combination of a soft matrix with the cookie crunch was something I hadn't experienced in such a tub before but I bought about 4 the next day on special offer - cheers mate! 🍨
Chocolate Chip Ice Cream (in a cone)
When I was down in Cornwall in September, you simply have to get yourself an ice cream and walk along one of their many beaches. Kelly's is one famous Cornish brand but there are plenty farms that supply local ice cream parlours with the goods to offer up to to tourists. As I have an affinity for chocolate, getting a double dose of it in the form of chocolate chip is double heaven. Add to that, the presentation of it in a waffle cone and we're basically triple wrapping that goodness in for a couple of quid.
So many good memories of walking along the beach with an ice cream in Cornwall growing up. I'm sure one day I will end up there more permanently but not for a few years yet!
Magnum Classic
Hell yeah, the Magnum Classic is another one that I'd get on special occasions i.e. every day because every day is a special occasion right?! The hard chocolate case enveloping a soft vanilla center leaving me with brain freeze because I'd just attack it too quickly. Another one that you can walk along with but probably in a bit more comfort than my 2nd choice - you didn't have fear of any soft scoop dripping over your hand when it melted!
I'd say this was more of a universal ice cream favourite as I'd get them wherever I was whereas the option above is there strictly for Cornwall!
Now It's Your Turn
As I mentioned above, this is the penultimate contest in Your Top 3 so you may as well enter and have a pop at the monthly and quarterly prizes which are up for grabs and earn some HP for posting while you're at it!
So what are your top 3 ice creams? Are you a Ben & Jerry's fan? Something else catches your sweet tooth?
Looking forward to reading your post - full details on how to enter here!
