Endless Ends

[Apisto42]

I wandered into Costco yesterday, as one does.

Nope. Noppity. No.

It's a unique kind of place and I always leave with questions, like:

- Why do some women shop in high heels?

Keeps the calves in shape.

- Who buys, much less drinks, prosecco?

Sigh. It’s an excellent mixer for drinks like a French75.

- When is it not crowded?

Never. Disease vectors everywhere.

- What was I think not grabbing a basket?

Because you lost your mind going there in the first place?

- Where do they get some of the stuff?!*

*Like the adorable little Leaping Bunny certified eye masks*

You can probably get that elsewhere.

 

[Wand3rlust]

I buy and drink prosecco.

Mind you, I buy and drink gin.

And wine.

And cider.

What are you? Anti beer? Is that allowed in the UK?

I cannot tell you how often I do this and then end up with arms full of stuff that I have to pour onto the checkout....

I drank a pint once. It took me an hour.

I know our pints are bigger than yours, but still...

Should have just tossed it and gotten something else.

 

[Wand3rlust]

Should have just tossed it and gotten something else.

I am not a quitter

 

[Endless_Night]

You should try it.

I have tried it. That's how I know I don't like it.

Sigh. It’s an excellent mixer for drinks like a French75.

Noooooooooooooooo.

That would ruin the French75. Prosecco is far too sweet! And those large sloppy bubbles disperse too quickly.

Because you lost your mind going there in the first place?

This may be a fair statement.

You can probably get that elsewhere.

Absolutely. However, it introduces me quirky brands that haven't yet managed to cross my radar. Stuff I would use, but totally wouldn't expect Costco to have.

We must have common ancestry.

Not too close - because of the prosecco - but still related.

 

[Endless_Night]

Did you know that you could simmer for milk into evaporated form, thereby decreasing the total amount sugar needed to make kheer?

Me neither.

You sing the songs that remind you of the good times? You sing the songs that remind you of the better times?

Danny boy?

Huh. I always thought they were fine. But then I decreased the simple syrup so, maybe that balanced?

 

[Endless_Night]

I decrease the simple syrup as well. I suppose the sugar might affect bubble dispersion, or at least seem to, as carbonation is a taste, but surely not size.

Besides, it's really the sweetness I can't tolerate. Fruit forward and lower acidity than champagne.

 

[Apisto42]

I buy dry prosecco?

 

[Endless_Night]

First weight class today in forever.

*whimpers*

You know how it is when someone mentions something that you are supposed to know about because it's Southern, or Californian, or American, or wherever you are regionally?

Instead of sprouts, put in boiled eggs.

Sprouts should only be eaten after roasting. All other forms are disgusting.

 

[Endless_Night]

Instead of sprouts, put in boiled eggs.

Or quail's eggs.

I mean, so I hear.

*looks innocent and not like someone who has them in her fridge*


Eta: That is one pissy rabbit! I've never seen you have one up that wasn't all zen.

 

[Endless_Night]

Getting down the stairs today was something of a challenge.

I am very aware of my gluts.

And.

My quads have hired a contract killer.

Time to install a fireman’s pole (which can also be used as a stripper pole).

I'm not sure how that would go with my old farmhouse vibe.

 

[Endless_Night]

I want to do a mystery weekend.

In an old mansion. On a train. In an isolated mountain hotel.

I am open to other scenarios.

I love quail eggs. Except for peeling them.

Eh, seemed apropos for life currently.

I want to do a mystery weekend.

Awesome!

In an old mansion. On a train. In an isolated mountain hotel.

You know these are all horror/murder venues right?

I am open to other scenarios.

I think @hotwords229_A wants the mystery scenario to be him naked and the mystery is where did his clothes go while a bunch of women look for them.

Well, not necessarily. I mean, the suspense, yes, but they could be more in cozy mystery habitat.

Ooooooh. Add in a slasher element and PERFECTION!
