What! You couldn't resist THIS? Oh say it ain't so.
ReplyDeleteApple? Really?
Heels.... I like those. But I'm a guy, so I'm superficial.
....I, too, have done a number of these things and never thought I would.
ReplyDeleteI am shocked, do you hear me, SHOCKED, to learn that you have done a few things you swore you would never do again :) Well, I guess that just makes you human along with the rest of us. I vaguely recall renouncing a few things along the way, like chocolate, coffee, alcohol, and California dip with Ruffle chips. I went back to every one. (You will note that they all fall into the gastronomic category.) I will say for myself that I have stuck with one "give up" for many decades: smoking. It, too, involves the pleasures associated with the mouth and palate, but in the interest of preserving my own life, I have managed to give it up completely. There is a non-gastronomic thing I thought I had given up forever: taxis. When I first came to New York over 40 years ago, the average taxi ride was about $2.50 with a 50 cent tip. I took a LOT of taxis. As the price rose, so did my resolve to give them up. But, sadly, occasionally I have to grit my teeth and do the deed : "Taxi, here, Taxi! Please Taxi!" (accompanied by a little dance in the street).
ReplyDeleteLOL! I love this... I suppose as we evolve, our needs, priorities and preferences do too ;)
ReplyDeleteWe evolve? Cous... what are you saying?
