Mmm... I am a-DICTT-ed to Starbucks Iced Carmel Macchiato. OMG. It's amazing. And I'm on a bit of a coffee high right now in case you can't tell.. But I feel soooo guilty drinking it. It's become such a habit. And a pricy one at that! Its 4 bucks for a medium (grande?) and that's almost as bad as a pack of cigarettes a day. I don't smoke anymore, but its really not much better to be addicted to these. So I looked up the recipe online, and soon I will try to make it on my own. I knew it was mostly milk and that it had to have shots of expresso in it cause when you get the drink, its layered. The bottom has carmel (OMG, yum!!) then most of it is milk, and at the top its dark, which is the expresso. Mmmm... I'm gonna get the ingredients to make it myself this weekend cause I'm addicted to it like whoa. And we have an expresso machine here. Well its actually an old italian coffee maker, the cute kind that comes apart, and you cook it over a stove burner. They're wicked adorable. And Rob has one, and he taught me how to use it.. AND he has real coffee grounds from Costa Rica.. Some GOOD SHIT!
Wow.. I need to reLAX! I'm going into work soon to make up my shitty hours this week.. I went in for like 5:30 yesterday and I was ready to go CRAZY, but we got out early.. around 11:30 which is wicked early! But today's Friday.. PayDay.. So we will likely have more work tonight. ANYWAYS.. I need to burn off this caffine, make myself something to eat, and then head into work.
Love you all!!
