BPAL Review - Bloody Mary
Jun. 15th, 2007 02:42 pmMonster Bait: Bloody Mary - Chunky, glistening red fruits with sweet cream accord, black clotted cherry, and powdered sugar!
So, when I was little, there were candies that cost $0.01/piece. We called them penny candy, and our neighborhood store had an entire shelf that you could pick pieces by the piece, all for one cent each.
My favorites were the cherry dollars - very much like the cinnamon dollars you can get now - a coin shaped cherry gummy candy. It also had a hint of cinnamon because there were the cinnamon dollars back then two, and because they were stored together, the cherry picked up a bit of the cinnamon flavor from absorbing the smell.
In the bottle it smells like spicy black cherry - like A-Treat's Black Cherry Soda. Wet on me, it smells like black cherrys with a faint hint of sugar.
It morphs into red cherry chewing gum. But dry and a few minutes latter, it is the cherry dollar of my childhood.
Gah. I want more. Or I don't. Because I can't get those candies and this makes me want them very badly. But it smells so damn good.
<mopes> And someone is selling a bottle of Nuclear Winter but I don't get paid until next week.
