Ok, I'm bouncing back from complete blogger lock up yesterday with the assistance of the idea generator.**
Today's topic: Name five things in your freezer
So without further ado, here are the first five things that came to mind while sitting at my desk at work:
1. Green chile
Only a small amount, but those few bags of the good stuff make me ridiculously happy.
Roasted it myself!
2.A bag of really, really good coffee
French roast. Ground for a melitta. Just. Yum.
Honestly, I'm not really supposed to drink coffee. It doesn’t agree with me or my tummy (or my esophagus, actually).
So when I indulge, it better be the ding-dang good stuff.
And this is it.
Served with real half and half and brown sugar, if you please.
3. A bottle of Siberian vodka
Hand carried to The Good Man by our friend who grew up in Siberia and made a visit home to see family. We coddle this one bottle of the good stuff like a colicky baby. It's deeeelicious. Smooth. Perfect.
Best when sipped straight from the freezer.
4. Frozen fruit
I'm a little bit obsessed with making smoothies. Fruit juice, almond butter, a little egg white powder for protein, and a bunch of frozen fruit.
Blend!
Totally addicted. Now...there is a LOT of sugar in there, so I have to limit it to only one or two a week. I could have a smoothie three or four times a day if I'd let myself.
Gah!
I get twitchy when we are out of frozen fruit. There is a Northwest Triple Berry Mix you can get at Costco that rocks the house. Marion berries, raspberries and blueberries.
Yes, please.
5. Several of those blue freezer thingies that you put in an ice chest.
What the hell is that blue stuff made of anyway?
Seriously. I've never had one break on me, but I always wonder what sort of biochemical hazard would occur if one of those bad boys was leaked out upon the world.
Hmm...maybe that's the basis for my new blockbuster screenplay. A truck carrying a load of those blue packs overturns. Through a series of unfortunate events, thousands of the blue packs are burst open.
The blue stuff takes on the world! Freezing things on contact. Sort of "The Blob" meets Medusa meets Outer Limits.
I like it!
**The idea generator has been pretty maudlin of late. Questions of death and dying, faith, etc. It just wasn't working for me. I need fun, silly and weird to get The Muse off the couch.
