British Food Adventures Continue!

Let today be known as the day that I found, bought, and ate Turkish Delight.

After reading The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe, there has always been the lingering question as to what Turkish Delight actually is.

My father always said that it was like applets and cotlets. The truth is not that far from this statement.

It turns out, if you buy it in candy bar form, it is a rose-flavored jelly (like applets and cotlets), coated in chocolate. It is much more delicious, and far less nauseating than applets and cotlets.

If you enter the site, they have a free download of their song, "Fearful Bones." I like the driving beat and violin.

One of my former housemates, Ivan, is the drummer. :)

You Heard it Here First

peersuasion = persuasion + peer pressure

Say what?

Yesterday, in the space of 30 minutes, I was told that I sound like:
A. A stoner.
B. Someone with an accent from Buffalo (NY?).

Interesting. Apparently, I have an accent.

CORE group

After 4 years of meeting with my CORE group, we met for the last time of our college years. And boy, did we ever have a good dinner!

We went to a new restaurant, Ravish, that is right across the street from the East Lake Bar & Grill.

Their baked brie was my favorite, but the rest of their dishes were delicious as well. Our group leaders ordered a little bit of everything off the menu, and we ate family style. It was the best.

But seriously, check out the restaurant. It's good, reasonably priced, delicious, and the decor is super cute.

Overheard on Campus

Dude #1: How was your weekend?
Dude #2: Good! I tried something new that I've never tried before.
Dude #1: What was it?
Dude #2: Adderall!

Okay people, that stuff is nothing you should mess with, even if you do need to focus to get a paper done. Don't abuse medication.
