Undiluted Drinks

So, this week has been full of undiluted drinks. Well, two actually, but how many times do you expect to get an undiluted drink in a year? That's what I thought. Anyway, my dear hubby, in an effort to keep our milk from disappearing so quickly mixed up a frozen white grape juice concentrate. Well, at his work the pitchers are twice as big as here. So he put two cans of concentrate in... and four cans of water. Now I don't know how familiar any of you are with juice concentrate, but you usually need three cans of water per can of concentrate, and that multiplied by two doesn't fit in our pitchers. So we had to take a few sips at a time until it was low enough to add more water, which we just did, and it tastes fine.

But that was only the first event. A day or two ago my hubby had some extra cash in his wallet and we went to a restaurant called Sconecutters. It's some really good food, but that night they forgot to add a bit more carbonated water to their root beer syrup, and boy was that sweet stuff. Too sweet. I didn't finish it that night and just added some water to it the next morning. It was already flat, so what's the difference? It tasted ok. I don't mind flat soda. Strangely, Tyson's Dr. Pepper was too weak. They must have got all mixed up and diluted something that didn't need it. Well, those are my adventures so far this week. And since tomorrow's Valentine's Day, happy Valentine's Day everybody!

Now I lay me down to rest
A pile of books upon my chest
If I should die before I wake
That's one less test I'll have to take
