Like a Song From Oliver

So I up and decided to join up for the July topic on NaBloPoMo. Why did I do that in a month that contains a holiday and will start off with a trip for me with a performance and all sorts of other stuff? Well, the topic was food and man, I've probably never loved food as much as I have this year and a half where I've been trying to eat less of it. So, its food, glorious food, all month long over here. Probably not just food but mostly. Also, it's Tuesday, so here's 10 Foods that make me happy without fail.

1. Chocolate

2. Hot chocolate

3. Chocolate cake

4. Lobster

5. Champagne (it's the bubbles)

6. Ice cream

7. Fresh sweet corn on the cob with butter

8. Fresh homemade bread straight out of the oven, also with butter

9. Sushi

10. A clean, sharp, cold vodka tonic

So, yeah, mostly it's dessert and drinks for me. What about you?

  7. Suebob, specifically 7 year old Grafton cheddar? 6 is too young and the 8 is over the hill? Also, what is White Sapote?

    Gert, I LOVE dark chocolate, I like milk chocolate once in a while, I don't really get into white chocolate. It feels like a different animal to me. How did I leave the gravy food group out?

  9. Well, there are very few chocolate cakes I'd turn down but, yes, I was thinking of Grandma Dow's of course!

    Would it be silly to make rum balls in hot weather like this?
