Somebody at work has just been to the US and brought back some sweets and chocolate. Today I ate a small fragment of a milk chocolate Hershey's bar. I do believe that it was the most disgusting thing I have ever tasted IN MY LIFE. I was warned that it was disgusting but I thought I'd try it for myself. I smelled it and it smelled like chocolate, I put it in my mouth and chewed it and it tasted like chocolate and then a few seconds later it started to taste like vomit. Like chocolate and sick. Mixed together. In my mouth. It's like the oompaloopa's had been on a binge the night before, come into work the next morning and vomited into the chocolate vats. Jesus. And it wasn't just me that thought it tasted like sick either. Vile. I had to rinse my mouth out. I'm never going to live anywhere that doesn't have Cadbury's. Gah.

On a more happy note, the [livejournal.com profile] shoebox_project was updated despite my scepticism yesterday. Yay! Sirius and McGonagall - classic. James and his moulded rubber fetish - also classic. Gorgeous art as usual. And the end - a kiss! Guh. It's so beautifully characterised and believable. Whenever I read HP now, this will be Sirius, Remus, Peter and James for me. And that's actually heartbreaking in the light of what happens to them all. What I thought was really telling was that I read through all the billion comments on that installment and there were quite a few from non-slashers and even non-fic readers that love it.

How is that possible? That our chocolates taste different!? What does yours have that mine doesn't? When you say Cadburys you mean like the chocolate egg that's filled with goo they have on Easter?

I don't know why but it does! Cadbury's is a brand of chocolate in the UK, not just the creme eggs - they have it in other countries too but the Australian stuff isn't as nice. It is is the best chocolate ever.

I feel the same way about Hersheys. One of us has broken taste buds!
