So I know I've been pretty quiet on here the last week or so, and I'm sorry for that.
The first few days of silence i was sick and mush brained.
After that was a few days of irrational rage. Not at anything, but rather at everything. YouTube video lineup got me pissed. It was my subscription feed, the people I choose to follow because I find them interesting or entertaining and I was pissed that they weren't entertaining me in the right way. I have no idea what caused those days of hate. Hormonal shift from being sick? Lingering effects from a year old concussion? Jupiter in reverse osmosis retrograde? No clue, but I thought it best not to bring that shit here.
Then the car broke down. For Good. I'm still dealing with that, and it will either be a long post with lots of pictures or several shorter posts with a few pictures each.
So I've been very busy. Tonight a whimsy took me and i decided to make my own Arnold Palmer.
I cold brewed some Jasmine green pearl tea that my sister got me a week or so ago (she is now in love with those weird fruity teas Teavana has). To make it lemonady without diluting it (it's a very light tasting tea) i made a lemon syrup using 1 1/2 cups lemon juice and 1 2/3 cups sugar (the recipe i found called for 1 3/4 cups, but my dry scoop was for 1/3 of a cup) which i stirred over heat until the sugar was fully dissolved. The cup I had was 12oz., so this obviously made a lot more than i needed.
So i poured myself 10oz. of tea and 3 tablespoons of the lemon syrup. It's not an Arnold Palmer, but it is tasty.
Yesterday I dismantled shelves. When I wake up I'll be battling rust. Right now though, the American East Coast sleeps. I sit in silence, and drink my tea.
