Adventurous Candy!

My sister got me a box of Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans made by the JellyBelly Factory which I mentioned in a previous post. I'm excited to try the stranger flavors to see how they're pulling this off. So far, I've tried Grass and Spinach flavored beans. And they're suprisingly good, herbal and not too strange. I have a weird rule about eating jellybeans though. You cannot go searching for specific flavors in the box. You must shake the box, and whatever comes out, is whatever you eat. I have a strong belief in fate and yes, it extends even into my jellybean eating. This is what happens when you grow up in a family that never took to any particular religion, but believes in various "truths," you end up making your own rules. I'm much too full today to experiment some more with these beans though. We had appetizers at Postrio's, then went to Suppenkuche for some interesting beers and hearty German fare. And now I just want to give my poor aching belly a rest.
