I can still see my toes, can't I?

I'm not small by any means, but I'm not disgustingly huge either. I'm pretty content.

Martinis are dangerous things my dear
have two at the very most
Have three and you're under the table,
have four and you're under the host!

Yay! Done!

Speaking from experience?

I remember at a Uni ball, we had vodka-martinis because we thought we were cool.

Well, martinis do tend to f*ck me up, but no, it's a rhyme by I can't remember who, that was in a book I bought about making martinis. Very Happy

Found it, Dorothy Parker said it. Or at least the original. They're not quite the same.

I'll recommend a "famous chinese snack food", "since 1920's", called MaHua (I think, maybe this is the name of the company that makes it). I know it's popular in northern China, I don't recall seeing it in SH. I tried some in Tianjin, then bought a dozen to bring back to SH. My northern Chinese collegues were buying them by the box load.

It's many thin rolls of dough wrapped/twisted together into a coarse rope looking larger twisted roll (<--abomination of the English language, but pffft.) which is intertwined with 'the part' that has different flavors: nut, sesame, spicy...there were about 12 varieties. The whole contraption is then deep fried to seal in all the healthy goodness.

They come in 6", 10" lengths...up to 0.5m long and ~12cm in diameter. They're about as sweet as a plain donut, sweetened with cane sugar, but a better kind of sweet than some of the local deserts I have tried.
