2 of my favourite things: chocolate & pepsi. I don't think i could EVER give up either....if i ABSOLUTELY had too? ...the chocolate would definatley gotta go - i need my agua!!
When i was growing up, I lived in a house where COKE was the cola of choice - for my parents. I used to always go to the corner store with my grandmother and she'd give me some change to buy something. 'Go ahead, get yourself something'. She would be in the fruit/vegetable market and i'd say, 'can i go next door?'. Next door was this fish & chip place that had one of those old school freezers. I'd insert my change and this little tiny Pepsi bottle would come out. The owner would open it for me with a bottle opener, pass me a straw and i'd sip it and savour every drop. I would do this a couple of times a week. I always looked forward to these outings with my grandmother. My money would be used not for candy (like any other normal kid) but for Pepsi. I look back on this and think, that would make an awesome commercial. That is the story behind my addiction....and I was only 7.
Today the cola of choice in our house is my choice!! We always have at least 2 bottles and 1 box of cans. If the reserves (yes, reserves) get any lower than that, i always know. My DH thinks it's funny and will announce, 'Oh no...emergency, emergency...we've got a crisis situation, please head to your closest Pepsi supplier!!'. who is he kidding?...he loves it too...
...and no...my kids have never touched the stuff.
On a photography note: 2 days ago i discovered that i had ISO 3200, so after dinner the kids and i went outside & i of course got snap happy. Came inside to do my POTD and only after i finished taking the pictures i realized that i forgot to readjust my ISO....just got too lazy to retake the shots. Does anyone know if there's anything i could do to reduce the grain?
The 2nd photo looked kinda 'blah' to me on my screen so i thought i'd do an image effect on it leaving the color in the center. I also know i should have used my speedlite - again--- i was too lazy. Shame on me.
