Lara Timbrell has a job kids die for. With five other Oteha Valley School pupils, Lara got to sample icecream for a cause - the kids' choice section in the 10th national icecream awards.
The 6-year-old thinks she's a pretty good judge and rates icecream as one of her favouritetreats. However, after yesterday's tasting Lara admitted she felt a bit sick and had a "sore tummy", which proves you can have too much of a good thing.
While the winners are not announced for two weeks, Lara let slip she liked the "goody, goody gumdrops" flavour the best. The cookies and cream and marshmallow coconut ice did not fare so well, however, with Lara's conclusion they were "really yucky".
