The "Love" Mocha and Weekend. :)

Wow, it's been a few days since I've posted! Sorry about that, guys.

Anyway, so on Friday I tried Whitney's "Love Mocha." ...I'm sorry to say, but it was definitely not my favorite drink ever. It was so sweet that I couldn't finish it, took it home to have Eric finish it, and he (the human vacuum) couldn't even finish it! Don't get me wrong, it tasted really good, but it was just so sweet. Basically, this drink was a white mocha with loads of caramel, hazelnut, and vanilla. If you want a really really sweet drink where you can't taste any coffee, this is definitely the way to go! Otherwise... you probably won't like it too much. But thanks for this option, Whitney! It's good to know what kinds of drinks people like. :) (PS - Congrats on the engagement! Your ring is beautiful!)

Well, this weekend has definitely been busy, but very good, with the hubby. We've been hanging out together all weekend with no official plans, and it's been awesome. For our date last night he took me to Rudy's Redeye Grill, which we were actually able to afford thanks to crowdcut.com. :) It was so much fun! Then we went to Cleary Lake and the Mall of America! 


We went to MOA today as well, but it was definitely a different experience. When we left our apartment, Eric told me that we could spend money, but only something that was $3 or less. Thus, we walked around the entire mall looking for the best deal, and we found it! For $2.95 we got a small "Top-It" frozen yogurt from Yogen-Fruz! It's also healthy because it contains probiotics (good for your digestive system!).

Anyhoo... That was our weekend. Hope yours was equally fun! Have a great evening!

Iced Espresso and shot numbers.

Alright, so this drink was for Carter. Aand... I definitely didn't get the large size like he said he gets, and I also made a couple other variations. :D If I had gotten the large iced espresso, it would've had a whopping 5 shots in it! Yikes. I would've been bouncing off the walls, and then I would've completely crashed into oblivion. So, since I'm pretty sure my husband still wants me to be alive, I needed to stay away from that. ;) Therefore, I did a 3-shot medium with the white chocolate, caramel, and a touch of milk. It was okay... but definitely not something I want to get again (sorry, Carter). If you want something that is definitely stronger, this is a way to go. Here's how espresso shots in drinks go from small to large:

"hot" drinks - 2.2.3
"O" drinks (Americano, espresso, cappaccino...etc) - 2.3.4.
"iced" drinks - 2.3.4.
"Iced and O" drinks - 3.4.5.

So, if you were confused before, you don't have to be now! You can know exactly how much espresso you're getting in your drinks. :)

Oh, and my hubby came to visit me at work again. I love him. He's so great. I caught myself a good'n! :)

Well, I think that's all I have. I worked out in the hot sun today, and I'm definitely tired! Time to go lay down and rest for a while. :)

Mint Condition. :)

Woohoo, today I got to try my favorite drink! I was super excited when I saw that it was next on the list. :) Since you can get the Mint Condition in a variety of ways, I decided to get the Mint Condition Cooler with dark chocolate. And man... it is SO good! It tastes like mint ice cream in a cup. :) It's definitely a sweeter drink, but totally worth it. I've never tried it iced, but the hot version is very good too. I'm sure it'll be one of my trademark drinks for the winter as well. :) Aaand of course I brought home another blackberry scone. I can't get enough of those things! (I'm addicted.)

And I had a wonderful surprise today! So, there I am, obliviously making drinks and talking to my co-worker, and then I look over behind the bar area, and I am shocked to see my husband standing there! :D :D This was the first time that he's ever been able to visit me at work, and I was thrilled. He stayed for an hour and a half until my shift was over, and then he walked me out to my car before he had to head to church for a staff meeting. I love him. :) Absolutely, 100% made my day (Thanks baby!).

I'm pretty tired, so I'm gonna go. It was fun working the afternoon shift today, but I go back to working the morning shift tomorrow! Looking forward to a hectic time. :)

Oh, and if you haven't seen my other blog, I have a poll on there right now that has to do with a *heated* debate between my husband and me, and I would love for you to participate! :D Here's the link.

Thanks guys! Hope you're all doing well!
