My new favorite afternoon pick-me-up: iced coffee.

Last week I bought a large catering size pack of coffee for a class I taught on a Saturday. I overestimated their like of coffee a bit and ended up with two huge containers of delicious yet too-expensive-to-toss coffee. So, I made room in my fridge and invested in some Half and Half and some sweet and condensed milk, and at any given moment am only one minute away from iced coffee. No brewing, no cooling. Just pour, sweeten and let the caffeine flow.

I love the brown on top, the creamy middle and the bottom coat of Sweet and Condensed milk at the bottom. Swirl it around with a fun straw and I can enjoy a little taste of happy!

Gimme a Push!

"You Powered Down That Whole Bowl?"

Michael loves snack time. He LIVES for snack time. Even if it's just half an hour after he ate a substantial lunch, the questions start coming, "Is it snack time yet?"

I am pretty good about keeping the snacks healthy. One carb (crackers or novelty chip from Trader Joe's which is usually made with lentil or some nonsense) and then fruit for any other snacks.  

Today, I gave him his snack of white cheddar puffs. He really likes it and was apparently very hungry today because just a few minutes after I gave it to him, he came to me with this face asking for more:

Me: "You powered down that whole bowl already"

Michael: "Yup. I sure know how to power it down!"
