Poetry Challenge #199-Strawberry Sundae Sunday aka One Scoop or Two?

While the proper spelling might be debatable: Sundae vs Sunday; the exact recipe might vary: One scoop or two? Cherry or no cherry on top?; and its origin is up for dispute: Two Rivers, Wisconsin in 1881 or Ithaca, New York in 1892; one thing is for certain:

Ice cream with crushed strawberries & a dollop of cream tastes like summertime!
