 Dimitris's Go ask Alice page
Alice's repeated pledges of devotion to her diary, the one "person" that understands her, clarify her morbidity: no one knows what is happening in her mind, hidden from sight.
Alice slightly remembers this: she had been thinking of her grandfather while eating the peanuts, since he used to like them, and then during the acid trip he materialized as a skeletal figure.
Alice believes she's in neither category, presumably because she came from a stable middle-class home, but the line she continually walked between childhood and adulthood is becoming easier to define.

Given champagne's lean, acid makeup (it's the acid that allows most sparkling wine to age gracefully) the idea of serving cheese and assorted tasty treats to help soak up some of that acidity is making my stomach feel better already.
Alice describes it as a brine-washed cheese that has a thick orangey-brown velvety crust and creamy inside.It is wrapped on the outer edge in spruce bark which imparts a wonderful flavour to the cheese.
Alice says, "It has a chalky texture (somewhat like champagne) and a slightly sour taste, but when fully ripe, its flavours develop and it has the consistency of soft butter." It's $9.95 for 200 grams and $15.95 for 400 grams.
