Bubbles… Without Soap
They've shared how they get the caramel inside the Caramilk bar, but how the heck do they make Aero chocolate bars so hole-y? Deliciously holy and heavenly, indeed.
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.
OR
"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.
OR
"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.
A Celiac’s Best Friend
All of you who also have an intolerance to wheat I'm sure appreciate this grain as much as I do. Rice is nice.
No Vermouth, No Ice
"What'd you do last night?"
"Oh, I repeatedly threw olives into a glass and made a splash."
Java Hut
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.
Engrish Sushi Menu
I think translations are one of the best sources of humour. Here's a snapshot from a local sushi menu. There's so much I just don't know where to begin.... the weird capitalizations, the incorrect punctuation, the spelling mistakes. Most entertaining is the word "lettuce"; at least the translator was consistent in their inconsistency of spelling it:
A Line of Quails’ Gate Wine
The tasting bar at Quails' Gate Winery in West Kelowna was bustling this past weekend. Glasses were lined up and ready to go. They must have a high capacity dishwasher for fine stemware, or somebody with quick but dishpan hands!
Even if you aren't a wine drinker, the vistas alone are worth a visit...
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!
