What’s a food item everyone should try at one point (1 Viewer)

[Selfmate]

That's interesting...I don't think they'll serve that where I live though, especially being in a land-locked state.

No, I like seafood. It depends on what it is though.
I really like crab, catfish is a safe option and coconut shrimp hits different.

I guess then sea urchin or even caviar is a food that one should at try at least once then to know if one likes the taste...
ah yes well it can be really expensive even when I live by the coast...

Hmm...that's very interesting...
Oh, I see! I have a hard time trusting seafood sometimes because I remember going to Galveston, TX (a beach town on the outskirts of Houston) and it's a pretty place but it's a bad idea to eat much seafood from there. Their tourism website says that the water and seafood there are completely fine, but someone died from eating their oysters. There's a power plant not very far from there.

We've been there twice in a row as our vacation, one where there are a lot of attractions, restaurants, and shops, and the other one was staying at a beach house in a more secluded neighborhood.

It was chilly too, but it was more just to sit back and enjoy the weather, sound, and view. My parents said we could not touch the water or eat the seafood that was caught there. The sand was also like concrete and the weather's not all that great. I still enjoyed it a lot though.

hmmm...if you like the beach then you would like my city
I've been to the beach three times over teh Xmas/new year break
once for swimming
once for just playing and another for my son's swimming lesson

(and that's not including the time spend by the pool)

btw how was your xmas/new year break - do anything interesting or get anything nice?

 

[Fallout]

OMG you've had it too? I went to a buffet and they had it one time and I thought it looked interesting. NO REGRETS AT ALL THOUGH!!

yep but it was store-bought and kinda stale T-T

Wow, that does sound nice!
How about if I come to Australia, you have to go to the U.S. someday?
I like Chris Hemsworth, Mako Mermaids and H2O and For King and Country!

Well, other than the trip to Galveston, we went to our paternal grandparents' house and spent a few days there. Our aunt and her dog were there too. I got my ears pierced on Christmas Eve, but they have since gotten infected to the point where both of my ears' earlobes have consumed the entire piercing (which I'm now taking 2 different antibiotics for), my brother and I got a lot of money and I got a bunch of makeup stuff.

It was definitely a more chill vacation. We always go to their house and then have a vacation for the week of New Year's so nothing incredibly new (especially because we stayed in the same place as we did last year's vacation). We usually have these vacations

2022 was Galveston and Houston, TX; 2021 was Disney World then Universal in Orlando; 2020 was also Disney World and then the beach; 2019 was visiting our late grandfather (mom's dad) and his wife; 2018 was staying in a cabin by the lake in Texas; 2017 was spending New Year's week with my grandma (mom's mom) and I don't really remember what we did before that.

Aww, stale desserts suck. But at least it was good enough to say that pineapple upside down cake is good!

of course but I might not make it to your particular city though and I'd be surprised if you came down under and visited mine lol
I know three of the four things you mentioned lol

first time with the ear piercing huh? interesting I would have thought more girls get their ears done way younger...

holidays with family is the most important thing!!! (and the money lol)

 

[seungfloral]

I dont like fish .. i see a lot of fish related foods here TT Im kinda squirmish about it and the smell.

I personally would say pistachio ice cream. It's surprisingly sweet and unique

I'm not even saying each other's cities. Just countries hehe. Though I'm only really kidding.
It would be nice to go to Australia someday, especially where Mako Mermaids seemed to be filmed. And there's so much to see in the US!
LOL you probably don't know For King and Country, I'm guessing? They're a contemporary Christian group that doesn't always make songs for just a certain religion.

This song is "What Are You Waiting For?" and it's about how you are given limited time and that you can do so much with it, including being a change in the world or someone else's life. The lyrics "What are you waiting for? Why are we wasting all the time like someone's making more? What if we could be the light that no one could ignore?" (And what's special is how the first pre-chorus they're like "I guess the crisis is, we've just one life to live and no one knows what happens next" to "The beauty of it is, we've just one life to live and no one knows what happens next."


And this one "Priceless" is about you being worth it and you matter. Sounds cliche but this message hits different in a song.


Even this one can be for anyone depending on how you interpret it. It's all about leaving your mistakes in your past and moving on to the future with a changed perspective. They wrote this inspired by Luke's wife (curly haired brother) dealing with addiction and overcoming it.


I love their messages and the way they do their melodies.

Yeah, my dad didn't let me because he thought I would become a boy magnet which my mom thought was ridiculous😂
I don't know if they have Claire's or Icing down there but if anyone you know says they're going to get it done there, warn them against it. Please.

Haha so true.

If you mean the music artist, just the radio. And they've toured the US a few times. (Yes, I have an analog radio in my room)

Hahahaha yes. He's like "you're not allowed to listen to it" and my mom, dad and brother all make fun of me for it. And it's not all I listen to. But it's better than me listening to songs about sex, drugs or drinking...imo at least.
