What is in your cup? - Page 1313

Pot One of Rooibos Capetown.

(hugs)

It sounds like you are working a plan to deal with this. The good news is that pizza and a movie can be replaced with some other yummy food or maybe cheeseless pizza and a movie. In most of Europe you actually have to order cheese for your pizza so it is not that strange a notion. It can be quite yummy.

Finding a place to replace McDonalds can be a really good thing. Better food or a new activity.

It sure sounds like a lot but I know that you will adjust and make it happen. I am sure there are some great websites ans upport groups out there that you can turn to. Restaurants are getting better at dealing with this type of thing as well.

Mulberry juice!

Lion Mountain Keemun. I'm totally heads down from now to the end of the month. I'll be light here, and pretty much everywhere, but I won't forget you while I'm buried.

There's a reason for the sun shiny sky
And there's a reason why I'm feelin' so high
Must be the season
When that love light shines all around us
So let that feelin' grab you deep inside
And send you reelin' where your love can't hide
And then go stealin'
Through the summer nights with your lover

Good morning, everyone! More rain today... and Rainy Season hasn't even begun yet. Oh well... I have a good rain suit! Big mug of Ahmad "English Breakfast" tea in front of me, along with some home-made English muffins with raspberry jam and fresh butter. I wish I had a fireplace, just for the ambiance.

Hot water and lemon. I just had ice cream and the hot liquid helps to clear the throat.

Onto my sixth and last cup of tea today, yesterday I had 13 cups.

ProfCrash · 05-02-2012, 11:09 AM

That sounds like a normal day for me when not pregnant. How big are your cups?

I came in to work this morning to find a bag of milk chocolate covered potato chips and dark chocolate potato chips. I love my teammates.

I am being good and saving them for my afternoon snack. I have had my banana and are working on pot number one of Rooibos Plum Cinnamon.

Dylrob · 05-02-2012, 11:55 AM

Pepsi Throwback.

I am in heaven

(stares longingly at the remaining chocolate covered potato chips and tests her will power)

I predict abject failure

lucasfernan89 · 05-02-2012, 01:05 PM

Banana smoothie on soy.

So hard to tell if it is getting worse or he using it more.

Also he has tested negative for this stuff in the past but they had been warning us all long that since he had such serious issues in the past that new ones could develop around aged 5-6 ... so these appear to be new issues that possibly developed over the last 2-3 years.

For now we are going to try and keep our dog. He is old for a dog (12-15 years probably, we rescued him so no way to know for sure, but he a was at least 3 when we got him over 8 years ago) so the reality is he might not be around much longer anyways.

There are things in life that we have gotten experience in that I really would have rather not had... such as ambulance ride to ICU and staying there for Christmas... having a rusty metal stake suck in my left side just below the arm pit, and so on. This is another one for that list for sure!

Brewing up some Kona for me cup...

Can he have bananas? For the ice cream fix, peel some overripe bananas and put them in the freezer overnight. Then cut them in chunks, dump them in the food processor, and process until it magically turns into what looks and tastes exactly like ice cream. It is amazing, no other ingredients needed. I had seen this on several internet sites but didn't believe it until I tried it. This isn't a smoothie, this is just (pretend) ice cream. From what I understand, you can actually make it and refreeze it to eat later. I haven't tried that because I can't seem to avoid finishing it.

Good luck finding some workable solutions...

Yes he can, will have to experiment with that. Probably could add cocoa too.

So do I.

Golden Dragon Oolong this morning. And probably for most of the afternoon as well.

ProfCrash · 05-02-2012, 03:48 PM

I still have a third of the first bag (and these are not Lays sized bags, think more the smaller lunch box size) and have not opened the second. And I have shared.

I am very impressed with my will power.

Now off for some cake....

Can I just say that chocolate covered potato chips sounds absolutely disgusting

. You can't get anything here like that, as far as I'm aware (there are other awful things, I'll admit, like deep fried Snickers bars, but that's only in specialist places, not generally available).

What on earth do they taste like?

Red wine in my glass.
