I don’t like nuts. They have a weird texture. Ok peanuts and raisins can be a bit addictive, but the raisins make the whole thing better. But I digress. I don’t like nuts, I pick them out of my cereal. I leave the nuts on the counter in the kitchen for the nutty people in the house.

So it has been ages (about seven months) since I was regularly blogging about stuff. Alicia is now seven months old, and there is no coincidence that the 2 time periods are the same.
Ninja Dog and the Thunder storm

This morning we had a relatively rare thunder and hail storm in Cape Town. I grew up in JHB where storms like this mornings are commonplace during the summer (like a thunderstorm almost every day). So when Lightning booms across the sky it is met in my household with joy and delight (my wife is also an ex-Gautenger).
Well not so much joy and delight this morning.

You know those experiences that just turn you off something?
Like the time I ate so many tomato flavored chips as a kid and it made me very sick. As a result I could not look at tomato chips for a good number of years.
Or like a friend of mine who can’t eat anything with sweet chilly sauce, cause she got food poisoning from something that just happened to contain the stuff. You have had one of those experiences right?
Think about it, I will wait…
