In the Good Ol' Summertime

I mean, why shouldn't I be singing that song when our high today is supposed to hit 85?

Yeah, that's like "up north" summer temps, and nice, beautiful weather for down here in Texas, but other places are already talking about snow and preparing your home for winter while I'm contemplating wearing a tank top and blasting the A/C at work.

We get a cold front blowing in Friday, so I'll actually get to wear a sweater around again. The thing is, I don't actually mind summer, even broiling hot Texas summer, but I also love me some nice, crisp fall sweater-weather as well. And 85 ain't crisp.

I'd Cry if the Song wasn't so Cute

The Truffle Burp

I've always wondered, and now I know.

"You get what we call a truffle burp, ten minute (sic) later. The truffle goes down, your stomach acids work on it, the gases are released. You actually taste the truffle when the gases are released and come back up from your stomach through your olfactory senses."

This conversation happily brought to you by my hearty lunch - truffle mushroom swiss Smashburger making its return trip "through my olfactory senses."
