Current Obsessions:

• Nespresso Pistachio Vanilla Over Ice Pods - SOOOOO GOOD if you like pistachio in coffee! I like them with white chocolate sauce or dark chocolate sauce and milk or just plain with chocolate milk!

• Dr. Pepper Creamy Coconut Zero Sugar- This is a new flavor from Dr. Pep and I’m in love! I drink it with True Lime and Torani Sugar Free Mango Syrup and I look forward to it every day!

• True Grapefruit and True Orange! I’ve been a fan of True Lime in my drinks for over a year now, but I finally tried True Grapefruit and True Orange and I absolutely love both!

• Strawberry Simple Modern 40 oz Tumbler- I bought my mom this strawberry print tumbler for mothers’s day and I loved it so much I had to get one for myself!

• JavaSok Nalgene Style BotlSok- I had been complaining that none of my JavaSoks fit my big 32 ounce wide mouth mason jar, but I recently discovered the Nalgene Style JavaSoks do fit these jars, so I bought one and I’m in love!

Thank you SO SO MUCH for reading this week’s newsletter! This newsletter is simply a way for me to share my recipes, and my love for coffee and food! In the past, I struggled with an eating disorder, and I would “avoid” certain drinks and foods I loved, just to be thin. I now have a healthy relationship with food and my body, and I understand all foods fit into a healthy lifestyle! It’s okay to love food. It’s okay to enjoy sweet coffee! It’s okay if certain foods bring you more joy than others, and it’s okay if there’s more of you to love than when you were younger ;)
