Lent

Ive given up alcohol for lent, I wasn't much of a drinker anyway, but it's surprisingly tough. I went out for cocktails last night with friends from work, they all drank alcohol; I had a banana milkshake. It was an odd feeling, knowing that I couldn't drink. More often than not I choose not to drink, but the choice was no longer there. So it got me to thinking about how limited the soft drink options are when you go out, and I like soft drinks quite a lot, they are soft after all! Anyway...

• I want to make my own cola.

Ive found an awesome looking recipe here, I think ill probably wait for summer, and give it a blast along with some homemade lemonade. Yum. I'm such a dork.
