Blood Orange Cafe Mocha Recipe { Original }

I love coffee and it's not a secret. I even have a bumper sticker on my car that shamelessly tells the whole world about it! Now the only thing you won't hear me shouting about is the after-effect of the creamer or milk that makes my favorite drink as yummy as they are! It's the awful payment I have to pay to enjoy my favorite coffee. It sucks but hello Lactaid! I'm a half-and-half creamer kind-of-gal but I'm also willing to try anything to enjoy my coffee without the gory, nasty side effect of being lactose-intolerant. Thus I tried my creative genius on Lactaid milk and created an original recipe incorporating my favorite chocolate bar and favorite blended coffee drink - Mocha! - and what do you know?! It turned out Yummmmyyyy!!!

The Day in Photos: { More } Reason to Celebrate Memorial Day

In Moving Purgatory

These couple make moving look good! If only it was real.

Lately, my days are surrounded by a growing number of boxes. Big, small and little ones in between. It's making my house look like a cross between a warehouse and a sardines can. It's getting tight in here so fast and we've just about started packing! All 10 years worth being squeezed in moving boxes.

Unreal. Just like the process. Put together box, sort, toss, fill, tape, pile, repeat.

It feels endless. Like a broken record, it's almost annoying. If this was Lord of the Rings, I'm in middle earth right now. Not hell. Not heaven. Purgatory. 

Do I Look Pregnant? Don't Answer that!

Hello? Anybody there?

Warning: This article is the ramblings of a woman under coffee coma. If you don't like muffin or loathe the word skinny, run away as fast as you can. If you love humor (at this woman's expense) then READ ON.

Not too long ago, I made a disconcerting decision to look at myself in the mirror, LIKE REALLY LOOK! I was probably naked. I tend to develop amnesia with things that shocks me. Though I remember, I started with a squint then bravely opened my eyes wide open, trying forcefully to not blink! If you were me, you'd be scared too and probably screamed! I did not scream. But what I saw in that reflection was one of those moments where you simply have to drop the "Whadda FFFF" expletive. Tracy Beckerman of Lost in Suburbia came to mind, not because she's a potty-mouth, though I'm sure she is sometimes, but rather specifically, of that chapter in her book where she mentioned "WIDE LOAD".
