I <3 <3 <3 this oldschool italian espresso maker... IT BREWS BLACK GOLD!! (grazie simon mio! <3)


Dinner tonight consisted of way way overpriced Indian-Pakistani fusion food so I'm still left hungry for more food. I'm reluctant to make a huge ass bowl of ramen and egg at this hour. I guess I'll wait the few hours for some quality toast and yogurt in the morning.

I brought my siblings to Granville Island yesterday which was their first time really and I spent waaaaay too much on miscelleneous stuff (ie. beaaaads, art supplies, food and PAPER). However, it is nice to splurge a little on fresh produce, sausage and herbs. I ended up making my rendition of lebanese falafels for dinner. Next time I'm going to try making an embryo salad (I have a feeling it's going to a potluck staple).

I'm thinking of buying a $40 Diva Cup for periods instead of using traditional tampons and pads (I spend hella more than that in a year for these danged cycles). It's made out of silicone, re-usable, environmentally friendly, etc. But I'm reluctant to try it because: the whole process looks darn messy (not to mention the possibility of gross slurping noises pulling the thing out in washrooms), the collected "necrotic material" has to be dumped out and washed in the sink (once again a problem in public washrooms), and finally... the thing looks HUGE.



discuss.

I...can't even get my head around that. I guess it's similar to a resuable diaper...and people make worse noises in the bathrooms all the time...life is short? Does that apply here? Damn I need more coffee.

lol, the thing is, these cups have been around since the '30s... they've only recently made a come-back with the use of silicone. So vagina friendly.
