Dear Coffee, I miss you.......


This is me without coffee.  I used to lie when I said I wasn't addicted to coffee. I am. Totally and utterly addicted in love with the stuff.  I love & miss everything about it.  The aroma of freshly grounded coffee beans, the slightly bitter first taste of a long black before adding a wee bit of full fat milk to it.....  that feeling around 10:30am when I need another hit and the socialisation of me and the barista who knows exactly what coffee I need at certain times of the day (I like to mix things up a long black with or without a dash, a strong latte, a piccolo...)
Today I tried a decaf latte... it was good, enough to satisfy my brain that I was indeed "having a coffee".  Nearly 7 days in... 21 to go.  I need to be strong, like a nice long black.
 
If you would like to sponsor me, please do so. Small cost of a coffee or wine perhaps?

Mother's Day - made it ok!

Another Hallmark holiday but a good reminder to give extra love & thanks to the woman who birthed you (or raised you), bathed you, wiped your backside and burped you and who was there for all the good and bad times growing up and even still as an adult.  Mum's are the best. I know mine is the best ever. So many stories I could tell you about growing up with mum being there for me,  it would take forever.  I always feel a little sad as my mum isn't in the same city as me, but we chat often and see each other a few times a year & love buying something little to send her that I know she loves. This year was humbugs and Ginger Fudge from Hobart and a gorgeous printed scarf. Lovely.  I am so lucky and grateful that my mum is still here, where so many others don't have their mums with them. Grateful. I have always wanted to be a mum.  There was a few years back in my early thirties that I honestly didn't think I would get the chance.  But so glad...

Tomorrow is the END of NO Sugar!

Image
Technically.  It commenced on the 1 July (I commenced a week earlier) so it will really have been 58days sugar free tomorrow for me, well 56 days sugar free as I did have two big blowouts.  But I see that as a learning curve and honestly can say I am enjoying being sugar free and good timing I just got my I Quit Sugar recipe book by Sarah Wilson in the post after attending a talk a couple weeks ago at Flow Athletica in Paddington. So even though it is technically the end of NO sugar, I won't be rushing out to buy my body weight in lollies or chocolate because I don't feel like I have to make up for that time, I feel like I have totally changed the way I think about sugar, food and fructose.  It has truly made me reduce processed foods to a minimum.  I don't crave anything really anymore, I fancy a chai latte or I fancy the cinnamon on top really.  I enjoy making fructose free chocolate, muffins and now that I have my new cookbook I am excited to make lots ...

666

*The number 6 vibrates to the energies of ownership, possessions and material wealth, love of home and family, care of others and nurturing, empathy and sympathy, responsibility and selflessness, provision and providing for the self and others.  Number 6 signifies the need for stability in all aspects of your life.   Angel Number 6 is a message from the angels to keep a balance between your material goals and aspirations, and your spiritual, inner-self.  Be gratefulfor what you have already, as an ‘attitude of gratitude’ encourages further positive abundance. When the Angel Number 6 appears repeatedly it tells of the ability to use the intellect to bring about positive outcomes in your life.  Be open to angelic signs and signals, maintain apositive attitude, and trust that opportunities will present themselves that will allow you to meet your material and financial needs. Trust that all will be provided for as you...
