The Best Thing About Today...

In Norway warm milk with honey was supposed to be the cure. Slightly better I believe although I hate warm milk. Eww

Mod
Uh-oh.
Mod
And here I was thinking nothing could sound worse than garlic milk. :-D

I mean, it is what it is."
In three weeks you will be as de-stressed as one can be. That's a promise. :-D"
Fingers crossed. SEVENTEEN DAYS.
Mod
If it's really, really hot and there's nutmeg and stuff (booze) in it, it's not too bad. ;-)
Mod
Think Catalina! :-)"
I am definitely thinking Catalina!
Mod
That reminds me of the cocoa scene from " 'Night, Mother":

Ha!
You know what I love is that William-Sonoma cocoa mix. As I've no doubt said a million times. :-D And if you add a little raspberry vodka? Even better.
Not for a child, granted!

My hot chocolate recipe is more like: microwave a mug of "milk" for two minutes on high, toss in a handful of chocolate chips, and whisk. I drink cow milk only if I can get it fresh from the farm; otherwise I stick to soy, almond, cashew, oat, or whatever's "in."
Mod

I only drink goat's milk. I am totally cool with Swiss Miss, which I grew up with, or Silly Cow Farms does hot chocolate powder in min glass milk bottles that's pretty good. :-)
Mod
Learned a new-to-me word from urban dictionary today. :-D"
I’ve not heard of this one. Interesting!

LOL I had to look it up and it's adorable.
A type of very cute doggo not to be confused with a pupper which is a younger daggo.

:-D
From the point I wrote that yoga series and discovered what the hell was going on in the dairy industry, I've never been able to drink a glass of milk without feeling queasy.
IT'S BETTER NOT TO KNOW.
;-D
Kidding. I think.
But I love almond milk on oatmeal and in everything I can get away with. But when I opt for cocoa, I go full on decadent. Half and half or heavy cream mixed with milk. If I'm going to be hung for a lamb, by god, we're having steak.
Wait. What?
Anyway.
Mod

Huh.
Frankly, that word is too close to another word flung at Italian and Mediterranean relatives for me to be happy with it.

:-D :-D :-D
**I'm laughing but actually my memories of Swiss Miss are fond ones. My grandparents lived over us in a duplex when I was really small, and I used to sneak out of our house and go up the back stairs to my grandma who would let me in and fix me breakfast. Swiss Miss was part of that morning ritual. And when I was REALLY little I thought it was perfectly natural that me and the coca label looked the same. :-P
Of course now a lot of this qualifies as child neglect--three year old scampering out of one house and into another in the pre-dawn hours. But in my parents' defense, I was born a cat burglar.
Mod
I hear you.
Mod
Hugely productive week.
Dizzyingly productive.
The alarming thing is that for all I got done--and I got one hell of a lot done--my TTD list has not dwindled in any appreciable manner.

:-D
Mod
Is it not weird how the more you do, the more there is to do???
Mod
Mod
ha!

Maybe paint brush, Bob Ross style? ;)
Mod
All of those, yes. :-)

Took my first Tai Chi class in over ten years last night. :-)

Great for you!
I met a Tai Chi teacher at the climate demonstration today ;-)

Picked LB Gregg up at the airport yesterday and now we're buzzing around prepping for the Fanyon Retreat. ;-)
Then more quality friendship time on Catalina! :-)

That reminds me of the cocoa scene from " 'Night, Mother":
Mama: God, this milk in here.
Jessie: The cocoa helps.
Mama: Not enough, though, does it? You can still taste it, can’t you?
Jessie: Yeah, it’s pretty bad. I thought it was my memory that was bad, but it’s not. It’s the milk, all right.
Mama: It’s a real waste of chocolate.
