burning the midnight oil!
… after midnight, we’re gonna let it all hang down … they call me the midnight rambler … all I know is I just got home, it’s well past midnight, it’s been a LONG day … I’m tired as fuck, yet here I blog. Snapped this tonight, edited it on a few apps, think I have half a dozen versions … but something about photoshopping making me look like shit appeals to me. I think it’s my new favourite pic!!

Chimay Blue
Ordinarily you won’t find me driving 70 km … leaving the GTAย for nuthin’ … ‘less it’s for some sweet stuff! Chimay Blue Cap qualifies. Been checking my LCBO app for days, and to my delight realized they were bringing it back, restocking it … seems to be either seasonal, or a one-off thingie. In any case, for three days straight kept showing zero inventory … till Thursday when 209 bottles became available (rubbing hands together) for the WHOLE province of Ontario … in ONLY two stores no less … one all the hell up in Orillia, ‘sup with that, lol?! A day later, the inventory shrank in half (almost) … only 128 bottles remained. Which brings us to today, Saturday … and me to Pickering … and from what remained on the shelves, just in the nick of time. An hour drive (each way)? Pshaw, ain’t nuthin’ … this boy’s a smilinghappycamper!ย ๐
Come to papa. My haul y’all …
Look at the head on that mother …

Once bitten twice shy baby. And I ain’t even givin’ ya dude’s gender … but heyย since I’m havin’ at ‘erย … might as well add another that fits the bill. Bookends … bullshit bookends the both of ya!!
Grilled Rainbow Trout!!
… Greek style, my version at least. Bought four gorgeous fillets and laid them skin side down on heavy duty aluminum foil, seasoned them with sea salt, pepper, oregano, thinly sliced sweet onion, a bit of more seasoning, and finished by squeezing the juice from a lemon over top of it all. Using an equally sized piece of foil, I then covered it and folded the edges of both pieces together (making it airtight) and essentially created a pouch, which I threw on the hot grill. Now, while it’s more poaching, ’cause of being steamed in the pouch, I did manoever it over the hot coals to crisp the skin, as well as subtly infusing charcoal flavour … cooking it perfectly, if I do pat myself on the back saying so myself. Served with Boston lettuce, tomatoes, olives, and feta salad (and with pita bread and tzatziki – sorry, no pic), and drizzled with Acropolis (y’all must know the drill by now, lol), and you got yourself one helluva great Greek meal!
listen to the wind blow watch the sun rise
run in the shadows damn your love damn your lies
and if you don’t love me now you will never love me again
I can still hear you saying you would never break the chain
Honeydew Bubble Tea
little stupid things people do
Why do they do them? A personal peeve is shoppers who insist on grabbing the weekly grocery flyer, but don’t move along … out of the way, and insist on perusing the flyer right there, and usually with a shopping cart as well taking even more space, clogging up the entrance into the store. At times they even block the flyer display, but you can be damned sure I let them know they’re annoying/bothering me, creating a nuisance, by my terse “excuse me” and as I embellish struggling to reach over/past them grabbing a flyer for myself. It’s just plain fucking rude and inconsiderate! I am ALWAYS aware of my actions, I wouldย NEVER obstruct anyone, I just don’t get it … why do people do little stupid things like that?

Maldon sea salt flakes cellar
And I’ll keep this world from draggin’ me down
Well I won’t back down, no I won’t back down
You could stand me up at the gates of hell, but I won’t back down
Well I know what’s right, I got just one life
In a world that keeps on pushin’ me around
But I’ll stand my ground and I won’t back down
Roasted green bean, cremini, & grape tomato salad!
LOVE roasting veggies, this one’s easy peasy … and healthy as hell to boot.ย First snip, then wash the beans (and tomatoes), wipe clean the creminis with a mushroom brush (or a damp paper towel), then slice in half … season it all liberally with sea salt and freshly ground pepper (oh, I also threw in a few cloves of smashed garlic for added flavour, which I later removed after roasting). Liberally splash with olive oil and toss till coated … evenly spread on a parchment lined baking sheet, and throw into a 450ยฐ oven, and half an hour later Bob’s yer uncle!! A coupla pics, enjoy!
My life has been a nightmare my soul is fractured to the bone
I cannot save you I can’t even save myself
But I am not your saviour I am just as fucked as you
Please don’t take pity on me
Please don’t take pity on me
Please don’t take pity on me

$80
This has been repeating lately. On three separate occasions, and not just the number eighty, but in monetary terms too. AND, if I had to be more precise it’s an extra eighty dollars ALL three times. Weird eh? Correct post title should read; $80 extraย ๐ฏ
