The Big Change

Change has come -- change is here.


I felt it was coming, and I anticipated it every day, but there was nothing I could do to control it. The change would happen in its own time, and I could only hope that its presence would not overwhelm me.


Just this morning I wondered, "Has it happened yet? Dare I ask?" But I didn't...I hesitated. I doubted that I would be happy with the outcome, so I kept to myself and followed my usual routine.


Until the answer was staring me right in the face, and I no longer had to pretend that today wasn't the day. I saw red...and I knew.






Peppermint Mocha....Eggnog Latte...

The change I've been waiting for is here. Welcome back old friends.

Ooooh. I've never tried that before, but it sounds delightful.
I'm gonna have to dig out my funny post from last year when I first spotted Egg Nog in the store

I had my first PM of the season on Friday. There's nothing better. Well, it would be better if my Starbucks was still open and I didn't have to drive 30 minutes to get one...but it's worth it.
