Hi Dave,

My dad used to tell us about how he would fill the cavity with vanilla
ice cream when he was young. I understand he did some of the family
cooking in his teen years when his mom had serious health issues. Melon
and ice cream would be filling enough for me but his dad (and he, during
the summer) worked in a lumber yard so would have needed more than that
to sustain them for the hard work.
