latte art

The other day my brother sent me the link to this clip on latte art. It is very fascinating to watch being done and very beautiful.

So far my successes have not been good at this art.
BUT,
I'm going to keep trying. We'll see what happens...





What did you think?   Are you going to try it?  If you do tell me how it goes.

you are probably tired...

...of hearing me talk about Christmas. So, this will be the last thing I've got to tell you about.

For Christmas all the kids left at home in my family draw names. This year Addy got my name and I got her's.  Just you wait and see what she gave me. 

When we were Black Friday shopping I saw the most adorable espresso set ever! I had seen a set like it at another store, but not so cute as this one. We have an awesome Espresso Machine and I knew it would go real well with it.

Now don't you think that looks cute?!? I love how the edges of the plate scoop up.

You can probably guess by now what she gave me. Yep, that espresso set of cups and plates with the cute little stand. It is just AWESOME!!

If you can't tell I'm having a ton of fun with it.

 Between my whole family and I we've used it at least once or twice a day.

Thanks again Addy!! I love it!!

thankful five

 This year  I'm very Thankful for...

1) My whole family.

  

   This picture was taken a year ago, but it is the only one that has all of us.

...and then later on came Yoanna!!

She has changed a lot.

2) Shyann. The BEST dog in the whole world!!

We've had her for at least 3 years.

3) My awesome flute teacher!!  No, I don't have a picture of her. I been taking from this new teacher for over a year now and have felt very, very blessed with all I'm learning from her.  

4) Starbucks or you could say coffee in general. :)

5) All my great friends. I don't what I'd do without them. You guys are great. There are a lot more I just can't fit them all in here.

Hope you all have a great Thanksgiving!!!

poll for you...

I got a poll for you to do. It's to your right, on the side bar.

Since I love the change of the seasons, I thought it would be fun to see what other people think of it. This week the weather finally changed in Kansas. Before that we were painting our house and it was still hot. AND IT WAS OCTOBER!! Something was strange, because it is NEVER hot in Kansas during October. Monday morning my sister, Addy, and I went outside to finish up the painting. We both came back in for another jacket with a hood. Five minutes later we were back in again looking for gloves. Times change...

Although I like fall, I don't think I'm ready for winter. Winter comes way to soon for me. Oh well. 

 Someday, I'm going to get a moose in scenery like this.

Fall is a time to drink more coffee than normal. 

So, don't forget to vote on my poll. I would love it if you would tell me why you picked a certain answer. Or maybe you have something else you like about fall.

5 things

5 random things I want to do...and they aren't in any particular order.

1)  Travel the world and work in a mission somewhere for awhile.

(o.k. many that is two in one)

2) Own a coffee shop

3) Go skydiving

4)  Own one of the following cars.

5) Go on a BIG long hunting trip in the mountains and get myself a moose and an elk

Well, at this point I don't have the money to do all that. I guess I'll have to wait awhile.

~Susanna

one of my favorite things is...

.....COFFEE!!!!

Doesn't matter what form it is in either.

hot

cold

latte

espresso

frapp......too good to pass up?

bottled frapps

pretty coffee with cream

or just plain black coffee. 

As long as it has a good flavor I'll drink it. (I might even drink it if it doesn't.)

So, what do you like to drink?
