It's not often that I tell you guys that, is it?
I don't drink it every day, but I might drink two cups today. It's cold outside and I'm chilly so I thought a nice cup of coffee would do the trick.
I'm using international delight sugar free pumpkin spice creamer and one packet of monk fruit zero calorie (negligble carb) sweetener to doctor it up.
I had a few of the sausage balls I made the other day for lunch.
Do you ice skate? I know there is one lotter here that does. A friend tagged me in a video about a place that has an ice skating rink and a lighted pathway. It's a little winter adventure and we might consider doing it.
Oh and I settled on $20 per gift card instead of $30. I didn't see any gift card envelopes around so I am going to make my own out of wrapping paper most likely... Or I guess I could crochet something up.. Hmm... Anyway..
How is your Tuesday going? I have some work to do but I thought I'd pop on and say hello so HELLO!

I can't go a day without having my coffee, well I guess I could but it wouldn't be pretty lol..and no I can't ice skate at all.
And as right now my day is just beginning and it's going to be a lazy one.

I had to go without it because for the longest time it would mess with my cycles. I still steer away from it during that time of the month, but I'm actually (knocking on wood here) seeing normal cycles since I started keto.
I can't skate either, but it won't stop me from trying.

@hillhjill Thank you. So far so good. Truthfully I should dedicate more time to exercising, but I've gotten lazier as it's gotten colder.
Oh I am really clumsy myself.

@ScribbledAdNauseum well I hope everything gets on track and that you can enjoy your coffee!
And your right but with me being me I would probably break my neck lol.

We used to drink coffee only on weekends . . . but these days we've been having it daily. I just have a zap of almond milk in mine. Yes, I figure skate (or used to, I should say). I hope you get to go skating . . . skate for us because our rinks are closed for public skating - has been for a while because of covid. I love it when they do pretty things on the ice to make it wintery festive. Gift card decision sounds good . . . we've taped it inside greeting cards just to make life easier. More cleaning and a walk for us later . . . I'm thinking about baking cookies maybe!

@ScribbledAdNauseum Can you eat almonds?
I once got a Starbucks gift card in a Starbucks paper cup. I saw a gift card in a jar with candy. I think I remember seeing a paper gingerbread man holding a gift card. Lots of fun possibilities!
A lot of rinks out here are on the brink of closing - again, due to covid. I don't think we even have any seasonal temporary outdoor ones this year. I am going to step on ice cubes on the kitchen floor to make skating happen .

I wish I could drink almond milk but there's something in it that makes my stomach hurt.
I thought about getting a couple of greeting cards or finding some around here.. I might do that instead with a personal message. hmm..
I am only about 90% sure that ours are open. I think they must be though as I suspect my friend wouldn't have shared the TikTok if it wasn't a recent one.

@much2say I don't eat many almonds, but I've never had any stomach issues from it. Admittedly, it could be the brand of almond milk or the type (chocolate) who knows?
Oh those are all fun ideas! Hmm.. I know both of my friends have more than enough cups so the jar / mug thing is out, but I like the idea of a gingerbread man holding the card or something like that. I'll have to think about it.
Oh gosh! Don't do that! Don't want to break your head as well as your neck.
I feel like the skating rinks could find a way to do some social distancing, even if it means increased hours and reduced group sizes..

I hadn't thought of using it when my blood pressure is low. I guess it raises it faster.

I've never ice skated. Always wanted to try. $20 is a good price point. My Tuesday is the same old, same old.

I thought it was an excellent price point too. I don't know if we'll do it though.
Same old same old can be good.

I think it would be a lot of fun to do, but I've barely even skated before.

You know I start my day with coffee
I used to love to ice skate when I was a kid but wouldn't dare attempt it now

I drink water for my health to lose weight and feel better. I used to drink coffee with toast and cheese when I was a child.

I didn't start drinking coffee until I was in my twenties. I tried it once when I was around eight and it was disgusting. Of course, there was no cream or sugar.
I take apple cider vinegar in my water sometimes to help me lose weight and detox.

How many gift cards are you planning to give? Crochet pockets for those gift cards? That's unique!!!
My Tuesday went okay... I sat too long and my back was hurt, but now it's better after I laid down.
