The only reason I'm posting right now is because I'm procrastinating. I'm procrastinating the writing of a review of a freakin fantastic show I went to Friday. Luna is on their final tour ever, and after 11 years of making music, they're flushing the toilet on the band. Friday's show was wonderful and like sunflowers on the beach, and yet the thought of actually having to tell an audience why, has me chawing frozen Australian licorice with nervousness usually reserved only for finger-crossing over my debit card in line at the grocery.
I'm hurtin for a few things out here, and VVB has taken the job as procurer of all things New England quite seriously. When she was visiting here in the fall, she dragged five bottles of meticulously wrapped Ken's Raspberry & Walnut Vinaigrette Salad Dressing to my kitchen. I can't live without the stuff. Seriously. I don't know how it survived the flight, but my vegetable intake is at an all-time high.
So I just received a hefty shipment of Devil Dogs from her. Two boxes, one for eatin and one for display. People doubt the existence of Devil Dogs! But I've got proof. And while in search of them online, I came across a site called Hometown Favorites that caters to folks far from their Drakes Cakes and other comforts of home. They even have Foxon Park Soda, bottled in beautiful downtown East Haven, CT. Luckily I've got my own importer, but should things get dire...
If you do have access to Devil Dogs, I highly recommend them in the freezer.
Oh and so Nevadelia Lotus Blossom got catnip grass from her Dad for Christmas. Here's a time-lapse photo documentary of her attempt to enjoy it.
