Companion cube

March 27, 2023

I had occassion to spend one night at a hotel, and brought along my charging cube for the first time. For some reason, I assumed I would not be travelling with the cube, which in retrospect was very strange. A three-in-one charger looks neat and all on the bedside table at home, but charging three things with one cable is a major convenience improvement when in a hotel room.

And it still looks cool, of course.

The downside is that I feel like I should get some type of travel bag for the cube. A small, dense cube does not sit all that naturally in my backpack, and I assume I would manage to bump or scratch it one way or another much sooner rather than later. Cables do have an upside there.

Candy followup

I, of course, had some of that candy from yesterday very soon after writing about it. Plopp mint is not nearly as minty as it could have been. Plopp is usually slightly on the sweet side for my taste to begin with, so the mint was still an improvement over the regular version, it just was not as big as I had hoped for. I was hoping for a clean After eight-type mint cream kick, but what I got was a somewhat less sugary-feeling Plopp with a pinch of mint at the end.

2,5 out of 5, I think.
