Yum!

So (as previously mentioned) I was searching for the difference between apple juice and apple cider. You may recall, that I've been trying to find great spiced apple cider. So I've been boiling apple juice in with these mulled cider spices that I found at QFC. And I mused if it would be better with apple cider instead of juice. So while in QFC tonight, I was picking up a new bottle of apple juice and I looked at the labels. Kroger brand indicates there is no difference. Tree Top brand seemed to indicate there was. (Read the ingredient list.) So I picked up a bottle of Tree Top. It doesn't seem to make it taste any better. (It is still good, don't get me wrong.) So apparently the difference is that apple juice is processed more and cider isn't. Although probably given that I bought Tree Top, both were probably almost the same.

Matty P & I went out to dinner tonight. I haven't realized how much I miss hanging out with MP. I'll be really really glad when his Film Festival job is over. Then he can play with me again! :) He has a different way of looking at things than Michelle does. Not better, not worse, just different. It's interesting sometimes to talk to him just because it is a different perspective.

I've cut out my 2nd evening soda (again). I have found that I'm not able to sleep at night. Then I don't want to get up in the morning. And sometimes I take a mid-afternoon nap. Which then screws me up again for the night. My life is so rough. :P I've had to start taking showers after work just because I'm so tired at night and in the morning I don't want to do it either of those times.

I didn't have that problem. I'm going to delete that comment.
