Absinthe

I haven't posted for a while so I figured I should put up a few words. I guess I will start with some background; I'm on a diet.. I have been for almost two years, when I started I was 260 lb overweight, now I am only 41 lb overweight.. One of the stipulations of the diet is that I can not drink alcohol at all, so its been 21.5 months since I have had anything alcoholic to drink, this has not been a problem except for a few brief times. See last year real Absinthe was finally legalized in the USA a few domestic company's immediately started production using various recipes. One of the domestic company's that are currently producing the liquor is St George in Alameda, the same company that makes Hanger One (which I currently consider to be the best Vodka available to the public). So now.. sitting on my shelf at home, I have two bottled of the St George Absinthe sitting, waiting for me. I know some other people that have tried it.. and they said it was great, but I have to wait.

I have had real Absinthe before, before I was on this diet I would import it and serve it to my friends. I do not crave anything really (except donuts), and its not that I don't know what the absinthe will taste like, I cant really explain why I am looking forward to that first glass so much.

I'll probably be off this portion of the diet by the end of next month, then I will still have to count calories and be careful with calorie dense foods (like Alcohol) but, I will finally get to try the St. George Absinthe.

Anyway.. I didn't have much to say, just posting for the hell of it.
