Scotch and Broccoli

As I sipped at a wee dram of Balvenie DoubleWood single malt Scotch while chopping sweet onions and broccoli in preparation for baking them together in a dish, I realized this is not how I pictured myself turning out when I thought about my future as a kid. Originally, I was going to be a rock star, but that faded out when I realized I might need to learn to play a guitar.  I next moved on to the idea of being an archeologist or paleontologist. But… college, nope.

So, I became a working guy. Now, here I am, actually liking both Scotch and broccoli (which I hated as a kid).  Life is funny that way, eventually the booze and vegetables will catch up with you.
