Ramblings on a Christmas morning


Happy Holidays to all.

At our house it really hasn't felt like the holidays at all. Lack of $$ to buy gifts for causes (Toys for Tots, Operation Jersey Shore Santa, etc) and and such and the fact that there isn't one decoration hanging up. Bah humbug!! It really feels like any other day today but it is in the middle of the week and I am off of work just for today,

Hubby is still sleeping and I am drinking my coffee trying to get motivated.

Low carb stuff:

I am starting my low carb, high fat plan once again tomorrow. I would restart it today, but I want to eat more of my chocolate covered strawberries! LOL. I actually started it Monday, did good all day and yesterday but when I went home and hubby said "its Christmas, enjoy your gifts (referring to the bottle of wine and my chocolate covered strawberries!).

BULLETPROOF COFFEE

THERE ARE SO MANY WAYS TO MAKE IT OR DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF IT...experiment and find what you like.

So I will make my coffee in the morning using a big spoonful of coconut oil and a spoonful of unsalted butter...add in some cinnamon and a splash of Torani sugar free vanilla syrup and blend in my Bella blender. I ordered a little hand frother that won't arrive for a few weeks - it is battery-powered and I can take it with me. One time I made it with orange extract and a little cocoa powder, OMG to die for!

So right now, since I have still have some hazelnut creamer here and since I am restarting this tomorrow, I am sipping my carb-filled coffee and its quite yum!
