Everything else

And we’re back!

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.
