SINFULLY DELIGHTFUL DELIGHT OF THE DAY:

Delicious!

Before revving up the engines for a full day of studying, I went to the market near my house just to get some lemons. This place is called "Marvelous Market" and it's a really expensive gourmet tiny little marketplace. They have some fruits, lots of bakery stuff and brownies and good bread, as well as tiny little overpriced meals (4 spoonfuls of chicken salad: $5.79). I just needed some lemons or limes, to use on the avocados that are waiting to be eaten. But of course, temptation in the form of mille feuilles presented itself. Not just any mille feuilles, but my favorite: The Napoleon (picture). So sexy.

Mille Feuilles is bascially a pastry with thin sheets of filo dough and layers of custard or cream or something else, then a glaze on top (or powdered sugar). The Napoleon is the one with black and white stripes on top.

"Mille feuilles," means "a thousand leaves" in French. The French may be tight asses, but they sure have some great stuff (kisses, fries, toast. Love em all!)

Speaking of a thousand leaves, during my walk to the market, I saw that more and more leaves are turning yellow and red. It's so firey and awesome! There are leaves all over the ground. The only time we saw so many leaves on the gound in Miami was after a hurricane. : (

Speaking of Hurricanes, the canes play Georgia Tech today. They'd better win and not get into any fights. GO CANES!

Speaking of fights, I'm constantly fighting the urge to slack off, and losing frequently. I've blogged twice today. My tendency to blog is inversely proportional to the time I have left to study.

The REALLY sad part is that what I'm blogging about, isn't even remotely important, deep, or interesting. It's like, "Hey, this is my boring life. Oooh I ate something good. Whoopie!" And then I just go on and on and on, getting on silly tangents (speaking of...) and going on a neverending pointless rant.

Brevity really is not one of my strong points.

Having said that...

In Conclusion, the point of this blog was just to give shout out to the delicious Napoleon that I just inhaled, completely cancelling out the time spent on the treadmill yesterday.


Speaking of treadmills....

just kiddin'.

"Brevity really is not one of my strong points."

The understatement of understatements...

I mean, I know that I talk too much. But never have I been able to transition from pastries to behavioral assessments of other nation's citizens, to seasonal changes, to a mediocre (at best) college football team, to time management (or lack thereof), back to pastries.

What can I do to get a mind as active as yours?! Dag!

Later, alligator.

Brevity in the bedroom is not one of my strong points, if you get my drift honey.
