"OW! These aren't little etable ball bearings on this cake--they're real!"
Okay, so here it is, early evening, rainy sunday...lights flickering again (and again, thank you National Grid). I'm sitting here with a really good freshly perked cup of real coffee. None of that dribble of hot water through a flimsy paper filter nonsense for me--I've got a real honest-to-pete blue enamel perk coffee pot (albeit mildly used) from the camping department..and coffee from Green Mountain coffee roasters--ummm-ummm. I'm not really that much of a coffee drinker--but I do appreciate a really good cup a' joe, when I do have one.
But I'm sitting longing for some cake or biscuits or donuts or something sweet to go with it. Now I really do miss my car, ha-ha. It is an incentive to stay away from sweets--when you have to walk that half-mile or so into town--and back, in the rain and/or cold to get something from the store.
It's really odd, though, this sudden craving out of the clear blue, for sweets. Believe it or not, I'm really not much on sweets. Oh, I love them, but don't really buy them, that often...maybe some cookies once in a blue moon--or a bit of candy or ice cream of something, but not real regular. And it's very, very rare for me to have any sort of fixation on wanting something sweet...don't know what to make of this...hmmm. Another weird side effect of the head injury? My mind's reaction to sheer boredom? Or just..a "normal" craving? Dunno'. But, not about to plow through the rain to satisfy it, so my body is just going to have to suck it up and deal with it, ey, ha-ha.
Love the cake. I know what you mean regarding sweets. I always have some jelly babies in, because if they are there you don't fancy them as much as when you have not got any.
Enjoy your coffee.
