Coffee and Other Ramblings

I love my coffee. I really, really love my coffee. I start each day with a big mug (equel to 2 cups), recently I moved from instant to perculated. Then when I get to work I have another coffee, then at lunch I have another. Sometimes I'll have one at night with my neighbour. That's a lot of coffee!!
Recently I have been thinking that's too much coffee. So from today I am having my normal morning coffee and that's it. Oh I'm also having it in a normal sized cup not my huge mug. I'm going to use my huge mug for hot lemon or warm milk at night. It will be interesting to see if I get headaches etc from not drinking as much coffee.

This morning I decided to make waffles for breakfast. That's the beauty of only working 2 days. I can cook breakfast. it's fairly easy to make waffles and while they are cooking I can do other stuff, like blog. They are so easy that I doubled the recipe. That way I can have waffles in lunch boxes for snacks or feeze some for quick breakfast on my working days. Stuff like waffles or pikelets is easy to double or triple when you make it and it is so worth it in the long run.

Since I don't work on Thursdays anymore, I have booked Breanna into swimming lessons. Both girls were doing swimming on Saturdays at the Rec centre where we danced. It was so easy swimming then dancing all on the one day. Several of the dancing kids did the same. Then as the saying goes "all good things must end". It shut down. To make it harder Stella dances Tuesdays. Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays and often has competitions on Sundays. So at the moment Stella is not doing swimming. I was able to get Breanna into lessons Thursday mornings at the YMCA. I think swimming is not negotiable so I need to find a school holiday swim program for Stella.

I think that's all the little things that I wanted to say. You know the little things that on their own don't amount to much but put them together you have a blog post! I haven't blogged about my garden yet so that's next on the agenda. I have started a Facebook group with the same name so join up! There are pictures there ( I can manage that).

  1. That sure is alot of coffee! I drink about 2-3 cups of tea a day. Need to drink more water.
    Glad you have Breanna back in swimming lessons. I've been thinking about Mikaela going back now too now that she is FINALLY not sick!
    I've never made waffles and I don't have a waffle machine boo! I did make pikelets the other day for snacks.
