Tasty Treat

Mmm...on the advice of Kelly from Eat Make Read, I put a cinnamon stick in the bottom of my coffee pot this morning, and it makes quite a difference. And I'll be honest--I add cinnamon to almost everything. Ok that's a lie. But I add it to a lot, and use it just as much as salt and pepper, I'd guess. Even if you're not a huge cinnamon person, if you're a coffee person, I think you'll like this. Seriously. Meh coffee from Trader Joe's is now AWESOMENESS in a mug. I didn't add the sugar her recipe calls for, since I just take my coffee with a splash or three of soy milk, but the cinnamon adds a great kick. If only it were a kick that could propel me to translate my Latin homework at LIGHTNING SPEED, that would be greatly appreciated. Mondays and Tuesdays this semester = negative amounts of fun (and sleep). Blurg. But YAY delicious coffee. Happy Tuesday!

  1. Sometimes in Jakarta they gave me a stick of cinnamon with my coffee. I was never sure what to do with it so I would use it to stir my sugar in, and then I would straight up chew on it. I'm pretty sure that's not what I was intended to do with it, but yummmm.
