Well, to make a latte you need an espresso machine because it's steamed milk and espresso. BUT there is a drink called a "Misto" (you can order one at Buck's) that is steamed milk and coffee.  Those you can make at home.  For a misto, you'd heat about half a coffee cup with milk ( non fat or 1-2%) and some flavored SF syrup, then fill it up the rest of the way with coffee.

Yummo!

I just threw out my espresso/capp machine because it was never used and I toted it from here to hell and back.....ok well anyhow....thanks

tammy........who cleaned out the kitchen cupboards......

After being up half the night with a migraine, I'm feeling better this morning.  (woo hoo!)

I have offically hit the 180's today! I weighed 3 times to make sure, it said 189.5, it seems like i was stuck at 196 forever and then last thursday hit 192, now 189.5. I love my band!!!!!

breakfast -unsweetened tea(daughter was in dr.'s office getting cast) no time to eat


lunch - jr burger at sonic, unsweetened tea

snack- handful of peanuts

supper- cheese and crackers( i had made smoked sausages for family for supper, after 1 bite , knew i couldn't eat any more of it)

Well, I finished bulding the pergola last night and got to sit under it and have a cup of coffe this morning before work.   It was still standing this morning so I guess I did OK with it.  Still trying to fight off this silly cold - had to sleep in the recliner last night so I could breathe (grumble/grumble).   Gonna play in a golf outing this afternoon with some work buddies who are in town from around the country.  That beats working in the office any day.   Hope all of you have a great day.  Well, here are yesterday's Eats:

Hey all,

Things went pretty well food-wise yesterday.  Hubby and I had a come-to-Jesus with our teenager about her grades, so that was fun (not).  They're so much easier when they're little.  Fortunately, I only grabbed a sf popsicle when it was over.  It would have been so much worse before the rny.

I exercised yesterday AM and had planned to again today, but I didn't quite make it out of bed in time.  Maybe tonight?

Here's eats:

B-fast: most of a piece of string cheese
Lunch: 1 c beef/veg soup and 1/2 c nsa fruit ****tail
Dinner: 1/2 small turkey & cheese melt w/ranch dressing
Snack: 2 popsicles and 2 pieces sf candy

Yesterday started off great and went downhill from there.
Black Coffee, u/s tea and lots of it all day long!
1/2 ham & cheese sand minus the crust, couple of cheese puffs
then I decided, about 4:00, to grap a couple of malted milk balls........MISTAKE....BIG MISTAKE OMG I stayed down until 10:30 last night. I only wanted a couple...NEVR AGAIN..Have I told you I hated chocolate? I got them wretched things outta my house and NEVER want them again. Chills, fever, shakes and then comode huggin sick! This went on for 4 hours! That was the 1st real time I have gotten sick since surgery! OMG we had company last night....well they had company while I was in the bed!
Lesson learned!
Rhonda.....the one that feels better today!
