snacks!

so i showed this blog to a friend. i was happy. pointing and waiting excitedly for her to tell me that my blog was amazing, inspiring, life changing. she said none of these things. she told me i can't have a blog with just one post. 

so i blogfailed. dang.

the thing is, anonymous reader, i don't know what to blog about. i am trying to find 'my voice', 'my audience', my 'thing'.

the title of my blog is snack and caffeine based. i spend many an hour drinking iced tea and snacking. maybe i will recount moments of epic snacking.

i woke up this morning, confused, tangled in blankets, spooning last nights clothes. i crawled to the east side of my bed (i have a very large bed, i have taken to dividing it up into a coordinate map) and pawed at my clock. it was a little after 11. 

just enough time for me to make breakfast. i sprang spryly out of bed and grabbed my baking apron, jogged into the kitchen to merrily start my work.

aw who am i kidding. i actually spooned my clothes some more, now back in the west side of my bed, rolled over until i fell out of bed and stood up.

realizing i am only in my girly boxers, i grab an oversized sweatshirt and throw that on. clothes done.

i stumble into the kitchen and grabbed the box of bisquick.

this is when it gets good, oh my little 6 faithful readers, i made delicious pancakes. 

pancakes so good i am still full 3 hours later. 

pancakes so delicious that fond memories of childhood pancakes gone wafted up to me with every stir of the batter.

i lovingly smashed a cup full of raw almonds, cashews, and peanuts, whipped up two organic bananas, and sprinkled in cinnamon and vanilla. i poured this all together and then ladled a mickey mouse shaped pancake for me, and a snowman pancake for my roommate. 

awww. deeeelicious.

about the same time i was licking the syrup off of my plate, i glanced over the sticky rim to look at the clock. CCRRAAPPPP. i was going to be late for school.

i raced into my room, grabbed the nearest pair of jeans to slump underneath my sweatshirt, and sprinted down the stairs to my waiting steed (my BIKE!).

i barely made it to lab on time. but, my beautiful 6 readers, i discovered, as i was panting and pretending to care about whatever words were being spewed forth by my dry physics teacher chops, that i had brought some breakfast with me.

looking down at my car sized sweatshirt, i noticed tiny morsels of syrup and batter flecked upon it. future snacks left on me by my morning cooking.

oh the joy!

i suckled on those so good, the hue of my whole world suddenly turned from fluorescent lights and white boards, back to mickey mouse and his snowman friend.

back to my yellow tinted walls and coordinate map required bed. and i was happy. 

didn't learn a speck about physics that day. but eh.
