usually it’s a dunks med iced caramel swirl 1 cream no sugar

 

Kirsten...you....you little punk!  Well, cute punk anyway... ? I'm assuming that's a Dunkin' Donuts iced caramel swirl.  I'm jealous.  I LOVE DD coffee and coffee drinks.  They're all over the East coast, pretty well covered in the Midwest, but when you get out here to the west coast, not so much.  When we moved out here there was only 1 within a 100 mile radius of me and that one was on base.  Now the nearest one is about 15 miles away from me...in the opposite direction of my commute.  I guess on the bright side it saves me $5 and 400 calories daily that I'd have to double workout off.

Briana, you're right that there are very few DDs out here. I grew up in California and still don't understand the attraction of Dunkin'. But I'm one of those people that drink straight espresso shots with no sugar. That's kind of the opposite of Dunkin's coffee. People love 'em, though, so they must be doing something right!

That is a sad state of affairs! Life without dunks has to be tough. ?. I do so love their iced though. They are more like dessert than anything really. But lots of sugar and carbs if you don’t ask for less. I really like the butter pecan, and pumpkin too. Yum! ?

Good Morning everyone!

 

So, I am having a cup while waiting for partner to awaken...

 

A curiosity... How do you like your coffee?

 

I like mine with heavy cream and Pyure or Splenda Naturals. Both are Erythritol and Stevia blend.

LoL....?

 

I am so lost!?

 

My face is warm and fuzzy though...

Had my first facial electrolysis treatment today. With coffee of course!

 

That's why I was waiting for Shawn t rise. To say bye on my way to my treatment.

I brew my coffee in a French press with fennel seeds and ground cayenne, then pour it into a cup and add cocoa powder. Sometimes I stir in a little milk. It’s a very bold, rich, complex blend. 2 cups and I’m good for the day!

Just a drip machine here on a timer, I wake to the smell of it wafting up to the bedrooms.

 

As they say here in the PNW,

 

Uff da

I love having a timer on my machine, rarely use it mid week though despite my best intentions!    Just waiting for my "Tale of the Beaver" Sleepy Monks Reserve to finish brewing - my Canadian friends left me some decent coffee as a Christmas present so I only drink it a couple of times a week, today it is the perfect antidote to warm up my chilled bones after being outside for the last couple of hours. x

We used to have one of those fancy coffee makers with the timer etc. Until it broke and we got just a plain generic ADC pot. It doesn't even turn its self off. We have to remember.

 

Bah, you all can have your fancy arse coffees. I will just stick with plain coffee, folgers med roast.

 

Anyway, good news today. I have been assigned another provider today with experience with HRT. Got the letter in the mail today. So as soon as I get a free moment on Tuesday, maybe after another appointment I will get my first with him and be able to start HRT. yeah, ME.

 

The journey is starting soon.

Just drinking my mid morning cup. It is ground, but a cheap blend, which I will not be getting again. Fennel seeds and cayenne Josie? I have fennel seeds in my breakfast cereal, which goes well so why not! I have never tried chilli. Worth a try at some point. I do have it in many things. These days I prefer Mexican as they are good for the milder smoky flavours.

 

Good luck Kymmie!

I'm a 8 o'clock coffee gal.  I used to buy whole beans and grind them with a grinder that was from my great grandfathers hardware store.....used by my grandfather and father it now lives in our kitchen like a little robot.  I've grown lazy and now use pre ground with a drip machine.  

Just finishing the first cup.  A winter storm is due today so i'm out early for chores and errands.

Congratulations Kimmie.  Fasten your seatbelt.  It takes a bit to start but what a journey!

 

Hugs,

No coffee today yet because I slept in but I’m contemplating making a cup. It’s cold and windy out and snow is falling like crazy. I’m supposed to brave the weather for some work pants and unfortunately I have to pay a bill so I guess it’s time to get ready to bundle up and freeze my buns off. I might just wait for the pants tomorrow morning because I’m not looking forward to the cold bus stop. I can walk a short distance for the bill so that’s not nearly as bad. I’m really not a fan of arctic weather. I need an Eskimo coat. And moon boots.

I'm also an 8 O'Clock Coffee drinker!  It's the best.  I used to grind the whole beans but now I buy it ground too.  I use a drip machine.  Ahhhhh!

Good morning everyone! I’m finding so much affirmation this morning even in the ridiculous infomercials this morning. No coffee yet but I did have a bowl of cereal with soy milk and collagen and a scoop of chocolate powder mixed in. Hopefully I can get to Walmart today to get a couple pairs of pants for work without freezing and still make it to group. Hopefully they don’t cancel again. I’m not over this cold completely but I’m trying to keep feeding it which seems to actually help the symptoms. I’m probably going to take a nap since I woke up way too early.

Good morning all,

 

Yuban gold when I'm lazy and don't want to grind whole beans, also my soul mate appreciates me not using the bean grinder to make the 2nd pot whilst she is asleep. It's much quieter to dip my spoon into the can of Yuban ?

 

Hope you get over the cold soon Josie

There are good points about everything. A good excuse for at least some more window shopping! :D

 

It is colder here now, at the moment, but if it is the same tomorrow morning I may be able to get out for a good walk in firmer conditions than the squishy earth there has been lately.

I am now looking forward to my coffee later this afternoon, having just finished lunch.

Finishing the second cup having had some lovely eggs toast and jam.  We lucked out and the temps here were a bit warmer than forecast.  Otherwise the heavy rains had would have been snow.  I'm sure my sisters and brothers to the north got hammered.  

Have a great day.

 

Hugs,

Hi all!

It's been the year without a winter up to this point. But winter finally os trying to get started. Got snow Friday night, and will be -4° tonight. 

 

Lots of love and a good morning hug,

Timber Wolf?

Well, I’m not better yet...it’s cold but sunny so hopefully the snow will melt off now that it’s washed over the grass and sidewalks. I’m sure it’s a slippery wonderland right now. I’ve got to get ready to go so I don’t miss group later. It’s going to be interesting to find work pants because I’m sure my butt won’t fit my usual size. But they have to be new and a specific color and no jeans, so that eliminates everything I already have that fits. I’m probably going to be in the fitting room. Wish me luck and shoehorns!

Not bad here.  There was only an inch of snow on the ground at midnight and this morning about 7 inches had accumulated.  Much less than predicted.  Seems the storm tracked further north than expected so it will end sooner too.  It is much colder though, still at 14 degrees F. 

 

I hope you find something that meets the needs Josie!

Currently 42/34 wind chill. cold wind cuts right through you. Looking at a winter storm advisory 2-6inchs. some places may get 9. Hope it clears by Tuesday so I can get over to another appointment in Cheyenne. No big deal if I miss it. But will be calling for an appointment with my new PC Dr. SO I can start HRT.

      I'm hoping to read the next section today.  Many of the reforms they are calling for are good, such as expediting the military procurement process, and have nothing to do with transgender issues.

      Good afternoon,    I have a young friend who is vegetarian and married to a full on meat eater. They have two areas of their grill clearly designated for their different cooking requirements. When she’s cooking she uses tongs or chopsticks to handle any meats. When he’s cooking he respects her request not to cook her meals on the side where meat has been. They get along fine and respect each other.    When she attends our house, she usually brings her own food, but knows I will clean my grill to meet her requirements. We love and respect her commitment to be vegetarian. I love that she trusts me to make her comfortable when visiting us. There are ways to make it work.    Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I was going to call it Numbness, then I realised well.. it isn't. basically, yeah, it isn't.   this only happens to me sometimes. I'll be lying down and my legs will.. well, I guess lock?   If I straighten them out, they will unlock- when I roll over again, they will lock again. this lasts for around 10/ 15 minutes I guess   it's not pins and needles either

    • atlantis63
      so, a close friend wants to cook for me   the issue is, she is a vegitarian and won't handle meat- I, on the other hand, won't handle vegetables- hate the things   every time she goes out to the shop, she comes back with something.. a cake, a fruit smoothie, a coffee, I won't eat any of it. please help me think of something that she could make for me that I'll actually eat   disclaimer: you are talking to the most pickiest eater in the world. good luck

      I think there is some truth in this.  They intend to implement Project 2025, whether or not he spends his energies persecuting the Democrats who have been persecuting him (in his view, a debatable point) and does nothing else.   I have seen numerous accusations that the document is about "Trumpism", whatever that is, and is merely a vehicle for him to become dictator.  From what I have read so far, that is the same sort of truth as the Steele Dossier, denying the validity of a certain laptop, Schiff's non-existence evidence of collaboration and a host of other things, many directly from Biden, that are simply not true.   I will continue reading it.

      Wife of mine pointed out that not getting a haircut for a month looks hideous - weird bald patches.  So back to super- short buzz cut.  This morning I braced, looking in the mirror.  I look like a woman trying to pass as a a guy, maybe  a small-breasted woman with enough T treatment to grow a mustache.    I would not believe me if I read what I write about me.  This is nuts.   White t-shirt: that they sell in the back of WM so you can tie-dye them or otherwise decorate them. They are thick and long lasting and slightly fitted, so that they could be a man's.  I like them.   Jeans, flip flops.   I will no longer point out these are women's.  What else would I wear?

      Quite right mate! I have been letting my hair grow out again (I cut it all off when I was 18).    I'll never look this good:    But I'll aspire to look my best! ☺️
