random thoughts about random things

Weird combination huh? That’s what I’ve been enjoying the last two weeks.

Carlsberg’s out with a new/old beer called Tuborg Classic, and in the absence of other favourites like Spitfire, Whitstable Bay or Corona it’s been my primary choice. Seems I’ve grown terribly fond of red beer lately; for that I’ll throw some blame on a pub in Bergen called Baranen. Downside was that my beer-consumption was a bit excessive for a few days when I first discovered it and the weather outside was simply marvellous and I spent time outside mowing the lawn, drinking beer, and getting somewhat of a tan. Thank god that’s a thing of the past!

With regards to cigars I’m not really a knower of any sort actually, I just like a good cigar every now and then. Having quit smoking quite some time ago, thank god, I find I still love cigars. There’s something amazing about them. The taste, the smell, the feeling (remember kids, don’t inhale a cigar, atleast not often. Or wait, please do *grins*).

And seriously, my consumption of fruits of various kinds has been pretty high. Nectarines, watermelons, oranges, apples, passionfruits, pomegrenades, mangoes; the list is long damnit! Which is a good thing, for as long as it lasts. And I’ve been lucky so far on the selection of fruits, though the last spanish watermelon tasted pretty boring, like a mix between the normal taste of a watermelon and water with flour in it. Yeah, there’s still half a melon left. Not sure I’ll be eating it at all. Not bad, just not good either.

Oh, and I forgot pineapples. Muyo muyo nammo. Fresh pineapples rock so incredibly. The difference between the canned shite and the fresh stuff is hugemongous! Never tried one, or been a long time since you did? I’m pretty sure you’ll thank yourself for trying it out again. Stupidly good stuff, especially on a hot day with some watermelon and passionfruit/pomegrenade mixed into a salad with a cold beer like Corona next to it with a lime in. Yeah, it actually works out neatly, since Corona is great if you’re eating/has eaten something sour.
