Mind Blown


Dear Lean Cuisine,

Your meals are frozen, they are processed and are quick and easy. They advertise they are healthy and delicious. I would somewhat beg to differ on those last two. But I am completely mind blown on how you use the microwave. When I pulled out my chicken club panini I couldn't quite figure out how it could possibly look all nice and toasted like it did on the box, since it is cooked in the microwave. Because generally when you put bread of any kind into that radioactive box it becomes soggy and then turns hard as a rock. Lo and behold, however, you're directions were quite different from your other meals which included tearing the box in a strange way and placing the bread on some weird mat. As I squished the two pieces together I noticed something remarkable... and MIND BLOWING. The bread was toasted to a lovely golden brown, just as if it had been grilled!

Sincerely,
Amazed

"I love reality. I love the world. I love the smell of it. I love it."


I've discovered just this week how significant smells are to the activities that you perform.

If you are stinky it is usually because you a) did some sort of strenuous activity like dancing or b) had a lazy day and don't care what you smell like so you didn't apply deodorant or showered.

If you smell lovely it is usually because a) you are going to be around people in close proximity b) going on a date or c) meeting new people and of course you want to make a good impression. However when you smell lovely it isn't really based on the activity you did, unless you took a tour of a Scentsy factory.

My week's smells began on Sunday when I came back from home and my apartment smelled like curry. It wasn't a very good beginning to the week. (don't worry the smell is basically gone now, even though I'm sure that is the smell I have been fighting with candles and sprays ever since I moved in)

On Monday I smelled like kettle corn and Costa Vida

Tuesday I smelled just like myself... it was lovely

Wednesday I came home with a campfire perfume

Thursday it was a gunpowder perfume (the boys I was with thought it should be made into a cologne. Yes it has a somewhat pleasant smell but not THAT pleasant)

Friday I wore
parfum de chlore (translated from French to English via Google translate is chlorine perfume)


Tonight I'm guessing it will be the smell of a USU Boys Basketball game.

Hope you're enjoying the smells of life!
