30 by 30: Amendments

I like my list. I don't actually want to change it.

But.

As it turns out some things might come up this year that didn't come to mind as contestants for making the list.

And their function will be to be the B team and sub in just in case I don't make it on any of the items on the A team, the original list.

So far I have 2.

Thing 1. Rent a car.

Since turning 25 I have intended to do this, but have never had the need, until this week. My mom and Tim came down for short visit and rode back to OH with them. The plan was for my dad to bring me back, but he was under the weather and could not. After bouncing around ideas and ways to return southward, I landed on car rental. And by mom's suggestion googled a coupon code and saved $100.

I got a 'complimentary' upgrade (aka, we don't actually have the car you reserved online) from a Ford Focus to a Nissan Sentra. I must say it was much nicer than my car and pretty fun to actually have some get up and go under my foot.

 
Thing 2. Try as many interesting chocolates as I can.
 
This has apparently become a strange addiction for me. I like chocolate (preferably dark) with stuff in it. Almonds, toffee, coffee, etc are all great, but I have taken a liking to trying the ones that just sound strange. For example, chocolate with crystallized ginger. Sooooo good. Who know?! Coffee with sweet potato and pumpkin, not so good, but not so bad either. The jury is still out on that one. So I am going to start a list of all the interesting chocolate I find and try.
 
If you find any and want to give it as a gift please send all gifts to:

or if you think of any more good ideas for the B team, feel free to share!

  2. I have tried chocolate with cayenne pepper (not bad) and have seen chocolate with bacon but have not tried it. I also had chocolate covered ants when I was a child. My dad was the kidder of the world and told me it was Nestle's crunch. Actually, that's what it tasted like.

    I'll keep you in mind when I come across something I like. :-)
