...usually when I get self-indulgent, there'll be pizza, cheesecake, Chinese food, weed, Farscape marathons, sex in public or all of the above involved.

Except today I was shopping and my impulse buy was a box of this stuff. Because who could resist something rose and vanilla flavoured containing a herb whose name means 'she who has 100 husbands'? Not me.

It smelt fucking divine and tasted ...like I was drinking a goddess' bathwater. Mostly in the good way. It just felt disconcertingly like a thing I should have sprayed on me rather than poured in me. It's also a bit disconcerting to enjoy anything that's meant to be good for me - what, am I suddenly growing up or something?

I liked it, but I grew up eating things like rosewater ice cream and cardamom, so I like thing with perfumey flavours. And it probably does me good!

Mmm... roses and vanilla

My favourite thing at the moment is rose petal jam from the Turkish grocer. Actually, I think I'll make myself some toast and jam right now :o)

It sounded wonderful until I saw licorice root. I can't abide licorice.
