Loading ...Its Lazy Time
What is the purpose of this blog? I meant it as a place to share recipes, but I just don’t have that many recipes. So I loosened up and added some music content, but its a bad time to add music content because the Web Sheriff is cracking down. Can I talk about tv? This season of Lost has been top notch*, The Office has been a bit of a disappointment, but 30 Rock has been splendid**. Thats it for tv for me, except for those Friday night news shows and Saturday afternoon cooking shows on PBS. Movies? I don’t watch enough. Naked Mole Rats? Thats just creepy. Here’s what I came up with. I mine the depth of my now defunct blog WhatGoesOn and share with you some of my favorite posts. Enjoy. (Following the Pozterisks of course)
*I would normally say awesome, but I’m looking for a new awesome substitute. Any Suggestions? Something timeless like Cool, but eith more emphasis.
**This is possibly the first time that I have ever used splendid in a sentence, it just doesn’t sound right, but here are my other easy fix options.

Snickers Schmickers
Sound the Trumpets. Today is a day that will live in infamy, for today is the day I crown… A new King of candy bars*
Today, for lunch, I had Punjab Choley, basically a (very) spicy chickpea chili. It burns. So for desert I need chocolate and lots of it. Here are my choices from the candy bag: Snickers, Almond Joy, Peanut Butter Cup, Butterfinger, Baby Ruth, Hershey’s Chocolate, M & M (plain and peanut), and Crunch. A nice selection. 4 of my top five candy bars right there. So faced with such a selection what did I choose? A variety (3 different candy bars)? A top heavy small variety (2 of my favorite and one other? No, I chose 3 peanut butter cups.
For as long as I can remember, Snickers has been my favorite candy bar, it really satisfies. It has it all, peanuts, nougat, caramel, and chocolate, but I’m just not that into it anymore. I don’t need all that fancy nougat, I just want something simple and satisfying. That is why I am writing you here today. I just want you to know that Reese’s peanut butter cups are now my number 1 favorite candy bar. I’ve known deep down inside for some time now, it just that snickers and I have such a history that I wanted to give it another chance. Really, how can snickers compete with Reese’s Peanut Butter Easter eggs? It Can’t, I’ve tried snickers easter eggs, they’re horrible.
*I Use the term bar loosely, it doesn’t necessarily have to be in bar form. I don’t really know what the limits of form are, but let’s not get nitpicky o.k?
Wow, that’s some in depth blogging. Bye.
