Food for thought

This post is all about food. Well, it's not going to be a huge post that will answer all your edible item questions, but just a quick thought about a couple things I've eaten lately. First is a pic of my morning coffee. That's me pouring in the joe, on top of the creamer and sugar. A lot of times I pour the coffee in slowly, because it makes a cool effect. The powdered creamer is very absorbent or dissolves very quickly, depending on how you look at it. Either way, I can pour just a little bit of coffee and then watch as the liquid creeps across the powder mound, making little riverlets, twists, forks and turns as it goes, looking like a different roadmap everyday, giving directions from one side of the mug to the other. I suppose I think about stuff too much. But speaking of coffee creamer, I always used to use the liquid flavored creamer in my coffee. Then, when I went on a business trip in which I was working a lot of late hours and drinking coffee. At that office, they only had powder creamer. I was very pleasantly surprised that I actually liked it more than all those "foo foo" flavored creamers I had been using. I guess "coffee" is actually a "flavor" and I actually like it, not needing to add "caramel hazelnut sunrise mist" to it to make it good. Go figure.

Here's a picture of the new McDonald's Angus third pounder burger. Apparently, MceeDee's testing the burger in Southern California before a nationwide release. So, being the helpful person I am, I went and tried it (to the tune of three times now). It's pretty good, probably my favorite burger at McDonald's now, beating out the Quarterpounder. I really like the Carl's JR Six Dollar Burger though, the flame broiling makes the difference.
