Some Wierd stuff

Was at the supermarket yesterday and saw this pack of Jelly bean that feels weird. It's a collaboration between Jelly Belly and Cold Stone Creamery - Ice Cream Parlor Mix Jelly Beans. I wonder how the taste is like. But i think it's weird. Jelly bean that taste like ice cream?

Another separate thing. Most of my plants are blooming now and when i saw the Hens & chicks blooming. I thought, that look weird. The ones on the right are the normal Hen & chick while the one with the tall stalk and mini flowers is the blooming one.

Blooming Hen & chick

and guess what i found out later? that blooming means the plant is going to die later...

Quote from wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hens_and_chicks:
Upon maturity (usually around 3 to 4 years old) the plant will send up a single stalk that can reach 5-25 cm tall. The head of the stalk is a cluster of star-shaped flower buds 1-2 cm in diameter, which range in color from dark pink to yellow and that flower for several weeks. After blooming, the plant will die. Usually by this time it has produced many offsets ('chicks').
