I wanted sweets from the old days of big glass jars in the corner shop, so I bought aniseed balls and cola cubes online, because they are no where in my sleepy town.
I only briefly glanced at the weights and assumed they were about right, and in my giddy, pre sugared state I glossed over the price.
Imagine my surprise when I got a kilo of each.
I have eaten so many aniseed balls everything tastes like medicine, which I also quite like.
I really wish I enjoyed anise flavor. I like pizzelle and they are originally flavored anise traditionally and I just can’t. I have to be boring and eat the vanilla ones. The anise smells so nice but my tongue goes ??? then no more thanks it says.
