Last night before bed I had a sweet snack. I was at the end of my Midnight Moo so I poured milk into the bottle and it worked like a charm. Plus a Peppermint Pattie. :)
For me, the key to good chocolate milk is an ice cold glass. I always keep one in the freezer expressly for this purpose.
Some people keep beer mugs in the freezer, I keep milk glasses. Typical.
Today is not your typical day however.
First - I ate this for breakfast.
hummus and cheddar on half a whole wheat wrap
I know. Branching out ever so slightly. Will wonders never cease?
Next - dinner tonight will be at Rustico. We're (my department at work) going there as a teambuilding event. It should be fun. I'm excited to see what we'll be making. A few years ago I went here to do a site inspection for an event I was planning. After hearing about what they do there I thought about taking a few classes there but never did. Now I guess I have my chance!
They also offer culinary tours. I would absolutely LOVE to go to Tuscany and Umbria and cook for a week. It would be heaven.
That's all I have to report till lunch. I'll see you then.
I'm from the UK, so I can't tell what a Midnight Moo or a Peppermint Patty would be, but I just wanted to say I liked your attitude and your food ideas. And way to go with the Tuscany/Umbria idea - you'd love either.
ReplyDeleteHi halfastone! Thanks for stopping by! Sorry!! Midnight Moo is chocolate syryp sold at a store called Trader Joe's here in the states that you mix with milk or put (gasp!) on ice cream. It's organic and not made with high fructose corn syrup - which is a plus. Peppermint Patties are these chocolate covered soft mint filled candies seen in the picture (all wrapped up). Not sure what the UK equivilent is!
ReplyDeleteI am seriously going to look into the cooking tour. I think it's just something I need to do!
I am obsessed with chocolate milk (and icy cold is an absolute must)... I might have to steal your b-fast idea. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's the only way to eat it. I'm also obsessed with hummus - hence my breakfast. I do find though that it works really well with the sharp cheddar. Feel free to steal!
