Strong Enough for Whisky and Candy?


Well, I finally lingered long enough in the liquor store to find the locked cabinet with the single malt scotches. I even asked for a recommendation, based on wanting to try something new, something not as awesomely expensive as the top shelf stuff, and something strong-flavored. So I got McClelland's Islay - super peaty, super smoky. I quite like it. Reminds me of lapsang souchong tea. And it's surprisingly smooth to drink. I look forward to the day that I can sample more expensive scotches, but this is diverting for now. I can now sip neat - I've graduated from ice! Hoorah.

Also, my Islay is a very nice counterpoint to Cadbury Mini Eggs. Though it's doubtful whether anyone else would agree with me on that point.

So apparently I have quite the family history of diabetes; it just keeps getting longer and longer. I am wondering if I should devote my life to fitness or nutrition or something. Like, get a degree in it and make my body a temple. Eventually sell my self-designed fitness equipment on late-night television infomercials! Like Tony Little's Gazelle! Like Bowflex.
