yesterday i made coffee for the first time in a month or so. actually, it was partially instant coffee and partially the fake coffee substitute. i wanted what i would call a dessert coffee, with plenty of creamer, some sugar and vanilla. i took the bottle of vanilla out of the cupboard and opened it (it's a fifth in size, glass bottle, from Mexico, we've had it for nearly 20 years and maybe even longer because we had some other vanillas that we've used up over the years) and then when reaching for something my sleeve (not Steve!
@digitS') caught the top and knocked it sideways but i managed to catch it before it fell on the floor. spilled a few precious tablespoons (on the counter so it was clean enough to lick it off
), but none hit the floor and the bottle was spared too. so, yes i did get my dessert coffee and it was delicious.
i found a supplier of vanilla for a decent price, i'm waiting to see if the new vanilla is as good as the olde stuff. i sure hope so. i was not looking forwards to running out and i really like a good strong Mexican vanilla in my tapioca pudding and our other favorite desserts - they're just not the same with the regular vanillas.
this morning's breakfast was cauliflower with cheese melted on top, some garlic salt and bbq sriracha sauce, then i had a cookie and milk while i was cutting up some banana and walnut bread and reloading the butter dish and then i had a piece of that bread with peanut butter on it. so that's a rather extended and complicated breakfast for me. might be too much and make me sleepy. i have the sun coming in now on my feet.
it feels very nice after having the AC blowing on them.
