HOLY HOT CHOCOLATE , BATMAN!

I’m scared of hot chocolate!

A couple of weeks ago I stopped by Brahms to get a hot chocolate. Brahms makes everything better and they also put whipped cream on their hot chocolate. What does whipped cream have to do with anything? Will it usually cools down the hot chocolate. The morning that I purchased this wonderful drink but still scary they asked

“would you like some whipped cream with that?”

and I replied

“ yes please”.

Now this is when it gets interesting, anticipating drinking the hot chocolate( which is a wonderful drink at this time and no way scary) on a cold November morning even though I know that it is hot but I thought the whipped cream would make it safe so I decided to take a sip. A sip that’s all just one little sip what could that hurt but the sip was not a sip it was a swig.

That’s when it happened the wonderful drink turned scary. It was in my mouth burning.

Should I spit it out but where?

Should I swallow? The horror

I burnt my tung (that’s how you spell tongue after you burn it). That’s when I started to fear hot chocolate.

I, like batman have decided to use my fear and turn it against my enemies and become Hot Chocolate man. I could wear a brown outfit and shoot whipped cream at my enemies.

I really don’t have that many enemies other than AOL, DHS and the Galleria furniture store. Somebody already took the website name HOT CHOCOLATE MAN (GROSS!) and what kind of superhero doesn’t have a website.

So, I guess that I will go on living my ordinary life and maybe I will try that wonderful but scary drink called hot chocolate one day but until then.....

BEWARE OF THE HOT CHOCOLATE!

Countdown to Turkey

We’ll the countdown has begun to Turkey Day. The emphasis has moved to the turkey somewhere between the Pilgrims and now. This doesn’t bother me that this has happened because I try to be thankful all the time not needing a certain day to remind me hey you should be thankful. I mean it’s nice idea to think that everybody’s focus is giving thanks. I might have a cynical view but this day is not about thanks. It’s about eating as much as we can eat, watching football, some time off from work and shopping at the crack of dawn.

I’m surprised that the Turkey (the official food of the Thanksgiving Holiday) has made it as the main course. I always thought it would be kind of nice to have our favorite dishes instead of food that we only have once possibly twice a year. I think this would spark interest in thankfulness.

I like Thanksgiving; it has some of my favorite things.

family
football
eating
time off from work
rest (hopefully)
hand art
giant baloons in the shape of cartoons
putting up Christmas lights

I’m very thankful for this time.
HAVE A HAPPY THANKSGIVING!




COMING SOON

COUNTDOWN TO CHRISTMAS

Goodbye sweet treats!

We’re trying to promote healthy living in our house. We’re giving coupons to our 4 yr old to take to her Grandma/babysitter’s house and for our house. The coupons will be for one sweet treat every once in a while or just one cup of chocolate milk instead of many. We hope this will help her make healthy habits not just now but good habits in the future. This can only be done if we her parents are a good example and make good decisions too.

I’ve known people who have said when I have children then I will go to Church because I want my kids to be raised at Church. There is a chance that this person’s children will grow up to be Christians but the truth is probably look to parents spiritual habits. If they don’t care about their soul now than it will be hard to make good spiritual habits.

I know it’s going to be hard to change my eating habits but I know who’s watching me.

Landslide

I’ve heard the song Landslide four times(Fleetwood Mac 3, Dixie Chicks 1) in the last week.

What does this mean?

What is this song about?

I took my love and I took it down
Climbed a mountain and turned around
And I saw my reflection in the snow-covered hills
‘til the landslide brought it down

Oh, mirror in the sky – What is love?
Can the child within my heart rise above?
Can I sail through the changin’…ocean tides
Can I handle the seasons of my life?
I don’t know….I don’t know

Well I’ve been afraid of changin’
Because I’ve built my life around you
But time makes you bolder, even children get older
Am I’m getting older too…

So, take my love…take it down
Climb a mountain and turn around
And if you see my reflection in the snow-covered hills…
Well the landslide will bring it down
The landslide will bring it down

Your guess is as good as mine.
