I am now located in Mississippi, the funnest state to spell (from now on tFStS!), where at random my neighbors bring offerings of food. I still adore Sonic. I plan to learn to make gumbo. I am reading Downtown Owl, by Chuck Klosterman (who brought us Sex, Drugs, and Coco Puffs). Downtown Owl has that sleepy, transcendent small-town aura down.
I am poking around the Internet reading about all manner of things, likely because while I find these sleepy, transcendent small-town auras to be endearing and beautiful, I am not meant to live in one.
Absinthe Hookah (technically the 26 Inch Amber Stargaze)
I found this hookah, which immediately reminded me of absinthe! Then I went off on a tangent of absinthe peekings (while debating the wisdom of getting licorice tobacco and adding a shot of absinthe to the base) and found some interesting and pretty things. Like the absinthe fountain, for when you want a little tap to drip water over your sugar cubes. And some absinthe spoons so pretty I love them (even though they’re gold!). Now tempted to drink absinthe with sugar and water (instead of straight, which is how I actually like it).
Pretty, pretty, pretty
I am now off to watch Naruto (because I have found that I greatly enjoy the RIDICULOUS NINJAS!) and have a pre-packaged mojito (that is really not comparable to the real thing but still tasty). I have spent the night wondering what breakfast foods/tobacco flavors would go best with ridiculous ninja, and have decided that either pancakes/waffles and many tasty toppings or salmon soufflé and mimosas (with pink champagne, ladies and gentlemen) for the sheer absurdity will do. The tobacco flavor I associate most strongly with this escapade is blueberry – extra interesting because I don’t actually eat blueberries.
Yes. Really. I have an affection for the ridiculous ninjas.
EDIT: Adding also – absinthe soap!!! (With or without sugar!!!)
