I had all sorts of good intentions. I swear.
I was going to blog while I was in Mexico….but then the pool and sun got the better of me.
Then I was going to blog in Vegas….but we all know how that went 🙂
So now I’m back. Pretty sure I’m going to catch a cold anytime now. Too many hours on the plane and too many lost hours of sleep – all for fun, so I’m not really complaining.
When we got home from Mexico, it was FREEZING. Summer turned into fall in a matter of days. Yes, we’re spoiled in CA. But it’s still a shock to the system. It’s now time for boots, scarves and hot chocolate. Yay!
Nick and I took our customary weekend walk to Starbucks. I couldn’t believe my eyes. It was time for eggnog lattes. My achilles heal. That and granulated-sugar-coated-donuts. Two things I can’t turn down. There are more, actually….
I’ve never been a fan of eggnog. I use to drink it mixed with sprite when we were younger. Then I stopped drinking it all together. And then there was that fateful day in college when the barista made samples of a hazelnut eggnog latte. And we all know that college students don’t turn down anything for free. Holy spandex batman! A.Mazing. I then proceeded to purchase 1 everyday for a week. Did you know it’s possible to gain 5 lbs in a week? It is. So then I limited myself to 1 per week. A little more reasonable.
So today commemorates the first hazelnut eggnog latte of 2011.
