Around the World

Lisa Collins, fellow WhyBother team member, physical therapist, amiga, and best present giver, gave me the best present EVER. She not only hit the mark, but dropped a bomb on it, obliterating not just the mark, but everything within a 10 mile radius of it. I'm talkin BOOOOM. She hit me up one afternoon and told me she had a surprise for me from Penzeys Spices. I was tickled. Within the quaint and functional paper bag with two color printing, I found 5 of my lovers from around the world; cinnamon...all with different purposes and preparation suggestions on their labels. What more could I ask for??? Cinnamon from China, Ceylon, Indonesia, Vietnam, and big Penzeys gang bang of them all for when I'm too stoned to make a decision. There were not only little jars of cinnamon in the bag, but cinnamon cassia chunks as well! Cassia chunks? Fuckin riiiiight doggie, cassia chunks. You take them nuggets of love and put em in your coffee grinder with the beans. Supposedly it turns your coffee into a cup of heaven. Sadly i don't drink coffee, so i've resorted to putting the bag of chunks up on my wall and have since called it art. Take a trip down to Penzeys sometime for your next cinnamon fix and BIG UPs to Lisa! Muchas muchas muchas!

Here We Gooooooo!

okay so if you know me, you know i have a little obsession. i tend to refer to her as the female sex, as i put her in my mouth on the regular, but it is not a woman that this internet adventure will introduce you to. in fact, i'm sure you've already met. you've at least had a few run-ins with her, and yeah, you've put her into your mouth too. of course i'm talking about cinnamon. my relationship with her has taken on many forms, from cinnamon buns, to pull aparts, to ice cream, to groovy mexican drinks. i'm in love. she comes with me everywhere now in a costco size container and i dash her lovely flavor onto more things than i should. this weee blog will serve as my little drop box for pictures and sidetales of this love story. it'll be a little bit of sweet, a little bit of spicy, with a whole lotta mmmmmmm.

This insaaaane cinnamon french toast is hidden away on the menu at Brother's Burritos in Hermosa Beach. the perfect way to top off their infamous breakfast burritos. chyeaaawww.
