La Insight - Week 5I’m a day late but I wasn’t feeling exactly inspired to answer this week’s LA Blog’s LA Insight. This weeks edition calls attention to the heat and what we do to escape it. Maybe the heat is making me cranky, but it seems that my answers are a bit contentious. 1. What is your favorite beach to cool off on? When do you go to beat the crowds? I don’t go to the beach to cool off. Seems whenever it’s hot, that’s where people go. I think I’d prefer going up to the mountains, but I never have. 2. If not the beach, where is your favorite cooling-off spot outdoors? indoors? 3. Where is your favorite spot for ice cream/sorbet/gelato? 4. What is your favorite flavor? 5. Stuck at home? What are you making in your blender? I don’t make blender drinks. I drink water for the most part, I don’t care much for flavored drinks. Alcoholic drinks, on the other hand, are flavored and there I prefer things with gin in them. Gin and Tonic with lots of fresh lime. I like most things made with lime too, margaritas (on the rocks) and 6. Got any original concoctions you want to share? I’ve tried making up drinks but they don’t turn out very well. I sometimes make a gin gimlet without the sugar. I’m not sure what that is, but it’s damn sassy. Is there a name for grapefruit juice, gran marnier and gin? 7. Favorite winter-themed video or book? I like A Charlie Brown Christmas. 8. What was your favorite water-themed activity as a kid? This one I can answer! Swimming. And tubing. I don’t see river or creek tubing too much here in California, I think because there just aren’t the right kinds of rivers. Sometimes we’d go tubing on the river, which is fun because you just drift downstream. But creek tubing is better because there are usually rapids. POSTED BY Cybele AT 7:25 pm |

During November it's all about me writing a novel. Sometimes it's about whalewatching. You know, and then there's other stuff.
