        omg that’s so unfortunate! To make up for this let’s all listen to Zayn Malik’s new song in which he even sings about vanilla ice-cream. It’ll soften the blow ❤️http://zayn.at/letme

        I love pure vanilla extract, it makes my tea delicious! No wonder sometimes it's "out of stock!"... I hope the climate favours the farmers and things get back on track for them!
