Coffee malt

I don't know about you, but I'm a huge fan of coffee. HUGE!

I also love anything sweet...icecream, malts, etc...

I happened to drop on by to Blissfully Domestic (good blog for ideas...go read it...NOW!) to find they had posted a recipe for Coffee Malts!

YUM-O!!!




Have you ever had a Jamocha Shake from Arby's? Well that's what it's like. And if you haven't, well then you're missing out on something wonderful in your life! Go HERE if you want the recipe...I think I may have to make this tomorrow...you know, since it's super hot and muggy out, yeah, that's why I'll have to make it!!!

(I think) I'm addicted to caffeine

Well, this may not come as much of a shock to you Zizi...seeing as my mom drinks about, oh I don't know, 5+ cups a day of this stuff! I, on the other hand, don't think I drink as much. I do LOVE my coffe in the morning and it just doesn't seem right if I don't have it. I only have 2 cups in the morning and then, occassionally, one at night, if we decide to make some. Now, this being said....last week, I started to get a headache at work and got a pop for some caffeine, just to see if that would work...and IT DID!!! I don't know if this is because of caffeine or not...but it kind of worried me. I thought to myself, I don't usually 'crave' caffeine, but I also don't want to be dependant on it!!! So I don't know...but I do know that I don't want to give up my morning coffee!!!

On a side note...I have been having 'issues' with my mouth! I have been getting tightening of my jaw. I am trying to do some research and it keeps coming up as TMJ. All of the reading that I've done doesn't exactly pin point how to get rid of it. So I went out and bought a stupid mouthpiece to wear to bed. In the directions, it says that aside from the mouthpiece, it wants you to focus on 'mouth closed-teeth open'. I have been 'practicing' this all day yesterday and it helped a bit. I just don't get it though...it is so frustrating and I want it to go away!!! I don't know why it is happening and I don't know which doctor to go to...the dentist or the doctor. Plus, I'm sure talking all day at work does not help one bit!!!

Any suggestions? Does anyone you know have this, or do you?

please...HELP ME!!!!!

The Maestro

My Mister and I, frequent Dunkin Donuts for their deliscous coffee occassionally (used to be much more...we're talking like every day during the summer). During our visits, we usually had the pleasure of being serviced by a mid-to-late-20-something-man,

to which we have no clue what his name it.

We dubbed him THE MAESTRO

He was given this name for a major reason...he makes THE BEST coffee, no matter what you order, it is how it should taste. I'm sure you all know what I'm talking about, considering it is a chain, you can go to different locations and certain drinks will taste differently depending on where you order (I can't blame them, I couldn't replicate something someone else made to a T, could you?!). THE MAESTRO has a few traits that make him unique, like, he always says WELCOME TO MCDONALD'S CAN I TAKE YOUR ORDER (does he work at McDonalds and just get confused, or is he trying to confuse us?!), he would ask why we didn't get an iced coffe (which we normally ordered in the summer) when we ordered a hot coffee, and then I can't remember but he made a comment or said something nice,

acknowledging us when we went once.

Last night, on the way to my Mister's show, we decided to stop for a hot cup-o-joe, hoping we'd have THE MAESTRO to serve us. My Mister knows that I have a hard time finding something to blog about at times and said, "There's a topic for your blog!"

So here I am...and unfortunately, we didn't have the pleasure of sipping some hot joe made by THE MAESTRO! As a matter of fact, we haven't seen him in awhile...we've cut back on our Dunkin Donut runs. Hmm...maybe we'll have to start drinking more coffee...
