Morning Coffee

A morning isn't complete without a fresh brewed cup of coffee. It always tastes better when somebody else makes it (like a Starbucks barista), alas homemade does the trick too.

Girls, Beer, Prizes

How anybody learns english properly is an amazing feat to me. Just look at this sign. Each time I read it I interpreted it differently. Is it:

"Bud Light Lime. Sampling Girls & Prizes!" meaning girls will circulate with samples of Bud Light Lime and you can win prizes.

"Bud Light Lime. Sampling girls & Prizes!" meaning you can have some Bud Light Lime and sample different girls but I'm not sure what exactly the prizes would be for in this case.

"Bud Light Lime Girls. Sampling & Prizes!" because someone had run out of room when they started writing the sign and didn't end up spacing the lines properly.

I can find out Sept 5 apparently.

No Vermouth, No Ice

"What'd you do last night?"
"Oh, I repeatedly threw olives into a glass and made a splash."

I'm having fun with my new macro lens, getting up close and personal with one of my favourite noshes. Coffee beans brewed in hot water not only make a deliciously necessary morning beverage, they're also a snack that is tasty on their own. A warning though that weird looks will come your way when you reach into a bag and eat handfuls of coffee beans as you would popcorn or nuts. My poor teeth... I'll bet crunching on roasted coffee beans isn't recommended by even 1 out of 5 dentists.

Avian Flu Practical Joke

I didn't have a glass of water here, and was thankful for that after witnessing Bird pull this unsanitary fast one. I doubt that water jugs like this are scrubbed with as much soapy and hot water fervor as plates and forks. You wouldn't think the need to. Until seeing this.

Slushed Around

This is a lifesize representation of how a summeresque afternoon was spent on the back patio of the Penticton Lakeside Resort Convention Centre & Casino. A sweet and tangy lime margarita quenches the thirst after a strenuous dog walk!

Belly Up to the Bar

One has to be mindful of the establishment they're in before they order a beverage like the one listed on the bottom of this specials board. I can only imagine the different versions that could be delivered to the table.
