Well Hello There To All The Hivers!
Well this is going to be an awkward one, laughs!
I'm going to start with Onions and I'll most likely end with car parts or something so wildly unrelated to Onions! Okay the point of it won't be of the Onion, but the Onion made the thought pop up!
While I was busy at work today I realized something, well I've realized it sometime ago but the thought once again popped up in my head at random, yeah don't ask me why I'm thinking of Onions when I am actually supposed to be working!
I remember it quite clearly!
Really I do! Like it was yesterday!
I had this childhood friend and we were like best friends and we have been friends for years and years! Life drew us apart now but that's just how life is, people's interest change and then so does their behavior. All irrelevant now though.
Well me and this friend we use to sleep over all the time and end up playing games the entire weekend and or school holidays! But this isn't about that, oh damn I can stray from topic easily!
One thing I picked up over the years was that my friend's dad use to eat a Onion for dinner everynight! The one night it'll be cooked and the other night it'll be raw and the next it'll be chopped but he never missed the Onion with his dinner! It as like a religion, hmmm might as well have been thinking about it now ey!
The world is full of weird shit right?
Why A Damn Onion?
Of all the choices.
Of everything there is, a whole range of vegetables to pick from that is equally disgusting! Why would anyone pick an Onion over anything? WHYYYY???
Well that was what I used to think!
Now, now it's a whole different story on another fucking stratosphere!
I am a sucker for a Onion now! The Betty's dad makes a few whole Onions every now and then when we are busy grilling meat over a fire! There is very little that can go in comparison to that!
That's not even the best part! Grab a peach and a apple and put it in foil with two Onions! Then you take that and throw it on the coals!
I'm a sucker for those! I'll be honest I wont be as excited for pan grilled Onions as I would be for one that was thrown on the coals!
Why Are We Like This?
Constantly shifting and shaping through the phases.
As a human we all go through these phases in our lives and none of us even knows what it really means, I don't want to get all philosophical on your asses but why do we change? Why do we evolve?
Think about it, why would you not like something and then like something, especially something that you've tasted many a time before and all of a sudden it's on the other side of the spectrum being insanely delicious? I'm confused!
What triggers me is that I don't even know when that switch was flipped and it was done so with quite a few things! The same goes for chilli's and peppers! It wasn't that I completely disliked it, I mean who can say no to a "Chilli Bite" (Feel free to ask me what that is xD) Now I throw it over mainly anything and everything. I even made myself a few Provita's with Bovril and Cheese on it with Tabasco dripped over it!
Beyond Delicious.
Well that's my two cents around Onions! Laughs, well probably not the most reflective post but it was a reflecting moment for me!
I'm glad I evolved and changed over the years because if I didn't I sure as hell would not have been here where I am today and it sounds ridicilous and it's a topic often avoided or at-least by most who needs to delve into that topic.
Also I would not have liked my Onions as much if I didn't evolve or rather grow the fuck up xD
