Things I heart this week

Beer! (If you know me, this is no suprise). This weekend was a beertastic one for me, as it was the birthday of a friend of mine who is a total beer snob. I got to sample all kinds of yummy micro brews and funky German stouts. He also shared some strange organic cider that tasted exactly like hay, but worth the experience.

Lychee! These crazy little Chinese fruits look like alien pods. So yummy! A flavor unlike any other, lychee have a texture much like if a starfruit and a grape had a love child. We've made them into sorbetto, and the kids have come a runnin'!
Frogs legs! I also went to a BBQ this weekend, and although it was pouring down rain, a French friend of mine brought tons of marinated frogs legs with him. It's true, they taste exactly like chicken. What made these little guys even more awesome is that many of the people there were snooty vegetarians and totally grossed out. Ha!

Good covers! I found this cover through a source that shall not be named, but it's this 16-year old British indie folkster named Birdy doing a cover to Bon Iver's 'Skinny Love'. Awesome. Can't stop listening to this song.
