Thanks a “latte”!
Welcome to a terrific Tuesday! I’ve got a little “latte” thank you / pick me up for you today.
Once upon a time, I truly enjoyed coffee, but in the recent years, I’m not a “regular” any more. Now, latte? Oh, I can definitely enjoy the occasional latte! Mild, creamy, oh soooooo yummy! Tex’s Tip: Just one mention of caution to the latte lovers out there. The last time I ordered one in an airport (2009), I started to add my usual embellishments of cinnamon & nutmeg to the frothy top. WAIT!! CHECK the lids! Someone had unscrewed the nutmeg lid so that when I tipped it to ‘shake’ … the whole dispenser commenced to empty into my cup. Blech … not a cool scene, and a very messy mess to boot. I’m sure you can figure out how to guard against a similar event. Yep .. I’ve got a new “check the lids” habit too.
😉
As you can see, there was no such nonsense on this latte … … frothy, served in a pretty cup, and ready to savor! In fact, I’m honestly ready to try another one at an airport layover later this month on the way to Winter CHA … if we spot a coffee kiosk!
I’m a ‘newby’ to the Mojo Monday challenges, but I simply had to participate when I spotted the MOJO121 challenge for this week. I knew at first glance that I enjoyed the sketch, so it was instantly on my “hope to do” list. Check it out if you’re looking for inspiration and a challenge!
“Thanks a latte!” for stopping by today! I appreciate your visits and your ‘Howdy’s” too! My studio time is partly devoted to prepping for the upcoming visit to Anaheim, CA for my ‘first’ Winter CHA event. Yiiiipppppeeeeeeeeeee!! I’ll be in the fabulous company of darling friends … but … will opt to share more about that later. Please chime in and let me know if you’re going to be there! I would love to meet you or see you again, as the case may be! For now, have a terrific Tuesday and a fabulous week!
