Do you have any idea what goes through my mind as I am sitting on the couch freezing cold?
No, I don’t think of grabbing a sweater or finding a comfy blanket.
Not at all. Instead I sit there contemplating what hot beverage concoction can I create to warm me up on the inside.
While out and about, I bought a tin of chocolate chai tea. I brewed a cup, but to me it was lacking in flavor. So I took it up a notch or two.
Then I did the happy dance. Trust me, the dance is for the flavor and not because it’s the day after Christmas or because my birthday is two days away (well sorta).
It’s great being resourceful. Instead of leaving that tin of tea to get stale, I raised the bar and left quite satisfied.
Try this one, please.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.
