May I please begin todays entry with a warning for all jelly bean lovers. Jellybean lovers beware. There are fraudulent jellybeans in the confectionery aisle at the local supermarkets. I made the mistake of placing my trust in a well known name and found myself coming off second best. I had a hankering for jellybeans after the Bear had purchased a cheap packet at a gas station days ago, to which I helped myself to. After they had been sitting in the glove box in the cold for a few days, they had developed a chewiness that I just love. Given that jellybeans are usually dramatically sweet, the extra chewy texture somehow enhanced this and created the best jellybeans that I have ever tasted. I wanted to replicate this! When visiting yet another Walmart I looked in the candy aisles for some jellybeans but they did not have any of the cheaper budget brand packets. They did have the Lifesaver brand ones (since when do Lifesavers make jellybeans?) which were reasonably cheap in any case. Given the brand name, I figure that these jellybeans were going to be out of this world! A couple of days of these sitting in a cold glove box could only improve these and the end result would be simply outstanding!
Last night as we sat waiting for our flight to San Francisco, I decided to crack open the packet. When I did this, the scent coming from the packet was ridiculously sweet. It was just beautiful.....a bit like a bowl full of aromatic fruit at Christmas time. I popped a single jellybean into my mouth (it is sacrilege to put more than one in your mouth at the same time!) and waited for it to start dissolving so that I could get that awesome sugar hit. The wait was brief as my eyeballs rolled backwards, popped out and bounced off the window in front of . I nearly swallowed the said jellybean whole and choked on it. I spat the jellybean back out asking what the hell? I popped another one in, and the same thing happened. It was just like chomping down on a slice of ridiculously tart lemon. I reviewed the packet of jellybeans to see what I might have missed, but there was nothing. It just simply said that it contained many flavours. It did not say anything about containing jellybeans that were enough to sour milk. Mind you, I ate the damned packet because I am a pig. I was a glutton for punishment. Time and time again, I would put one in my mouth and have my tongue try to escape via one of my ears. Its a good thing I like sour lollies. But I just wanted a jellybean. A normal, sickly sweet, almost crystallised jellybean. So people....if you too are a jellybean freak....be careful at what you purchase. There are jellybean packets out there that promote being the real deal, where as in fact they are fraudulent jellybeans!
Anyway, today was an absolutely glorious day in San Francisco. There were probably not enough trannies around for my liking, but that was ok. I got a huge buzz last time out of trying to work out who was a lady, who was a boy, or finally more importantly, a lady-boy! We took a walk down to Pier 39 which was as awesome as I remembered it. There were some cheeky seals playing about, some of which had the locals very well trained. We didn't need to do the Alcatraz thing again. We did want to get closer to the Golden Gate Bridge, so managed to achieve that. We also drove up to "Twin Peaks" which gives an almost 360 degree view of San Francisco. The sky was an overwhelming view which complimented San Francisco Bay very well. I love San Francisco. I am disappointed that we wont have more time to spend here.
