Today was:
Breakfast: Ethiopian Blend coffee with regular Almond milk

After cleaning off my car and the sides of the car; It was 2.5 hours later-- at 30 degrees.
I had my snow/ski gloves, snow/ski pants, hooded sweatshirt, smart wool socks with snow sneakers on... I was warm at times, pushing hood on and off.. I had to take the mask off as my nose was just dripping... I was a hot mess... ugh

Came in, sweating, took clothes off, put bathrobe on, and then got chilly.. had a cup of decaf coffee with some Sambuca (alcoholic)... That is my post shoveling ritual, and has been for many years... I used to have hot chocolate.. perhaps tomorrow...
More snow, tomorrow. ugh....

I could not get the coldness out of me.. even after a shower.

So, I only had two tablespoons of white hot chocolate mix left, and a serving is three. So I mixed those two with a tbsp of sugar and a tbsp of cocoa powder for a hot white chocolate/regular chocolate mix. I'm like a 5 star chef or something. :crazy:

Ha! Sounds like me playing barista all the time. :thumbsup:

I switched things up yesterday, and had my green tea in the afternoon, and my suisse mocha in the evening.
That sounds exciting! ;)

Since DH and I went out this afternoon just as it started snowing we decided to stop at one of our favorite coffee shops. I had a large Americano and DH tried a new drink, i.e. Mocha crafted with handmade ganache. He loved it! :thumbsup: Best part was since they eased the restrictions on indoor dining so we were able to sit inside and enjoy our warm drinks.

What's that?
It's basically a mixture of chocolate and cream, very smooth and satisfying.

Cold and snowy day here, already had my morning cup of dark roast coffee. I bought a new bag of my favorite coffee beans and just ground enough to last the next 2-3 days. I try not to grind too much so that it stays fresh.

I'm thinking of stealing that Folgers Black Silk dark roast coffee that my mom wanted to send to my brother. I can always buy him another one.
