Oh. Hi.

Yeah. I knew it. I'd slack.

And I'm thinking that this whole "structured" post of the day junk is defeating the purpose of "unpredictable ramblings”. o_O

So. I’m going to do just that, unpredictably ramble. Just like the blog says. No more, Mama Mondays or Did It Work Tuesdays. I’m horrible at schedules, obviously. So, I will just write posts about what is on my mind at the moment.
So. …

My son will be 12 months old tomorrow. Well, more like at 2:03am. For those of you who don’t know about my son, he has Spina Bifida. The journey that I’ve been on for the past 12 months has been a rollercoaster of emotions. Ups and downs. Twists and turns. With a blindfold on. And no direction.
We weren’t prepared for this journey, as we didn’t know he was going to be born with Spina Bifida. But, it is what it is. He’s here. He’s doing great. We’ve climbed that mountain and reached the top.
Is our journey over? No, it’s just beginning. But what I can say is that we’re fortunate to have so many people riding this roller coaster along with us. You know who you are.

Thank you <3

Does it work??

Pumpkin Spice Latte

I found a recipe on Pinterest to make PSL's at home.

A friend of mine found a recipe on Pinterest to make PSL's at home, she tried it and said that it came out really good and that she added more sugar than the recipe called for.

I decided to try it for myself, and I did so on Sunday morning.

Here is the recipe I used, however, I used skim milk, splenda and instant Folgers (because that's what I had in my house).

IT WAS GLORIOUS!!!!

It was so good that if I had the extra time in the morning, I would make it every day!! (I'm not sure what extra time entails, but if you know where I can find some, let me know!)

There was enough for 2 cups (I didn't share, not that B drinks coffee anyway. He thinks it's gross...blasphemy!!!))

I decide to compare to a Starbucks PSL, but with skim milk and splenda, just to see if there was a variation.

I ordered it skinny, and it tasted the exact same!!!!

So, if you are a PSL lover like I am, try it out. It's not that hard to do!



So, does it work? I would say - YES!
