Yummy drink
I had to share this yummy drink I just made. After my morning cup of joe, I usually have a protein drink. This AM since it is chilly I wanted something warm so I took a EAS Advantage Carb Control chocolate ready to drink shake, mixed in a splash of SF carmel syrup and a splash of ff half and half. Then I microwaved it for 1 minute on high. MMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!
17 grams of warm protein that tastes like hot chocolate.
Enjoy!
Sounds yummy. Bet I could use my Chocolate Mice Milk and really increase the protein....[off hobbling to the kitchen.....]

So I run like a Girl....now keep up!
I mix mine with cold coffee for a cold mocha latte. just a note, you might want to call EAS and ask if the protein degrades if you heat it as some protein products do. That could be why so many are shakes.

I much prefer iced//cold coffee as a tall drink so I fix the following:
Very strong coffee, say 20 oz. or as much as you want
Lots of Splenda, 6-8 teaspoons
Half and Half, or canned mik to taste
Vanilla protein powder, 1 1/2 scoops
1/2 scoop of cho. protein for variety some days (sub. for 1/2 scoop vanilla)
I keep the coffee cold in a pitcher in the refrigerator, so I use little ice. I drink these wonderful 30g protein drinks at least twice if not 3 x day. This gives me my protein and keeps me from spending $$$ on coffe shop iced coffees.

This weekend I may be around but next weekend is my niece's destination wedding at Pasadena, MD, on the bay. The weekend after that I will be in Alabama-- Bankhead National Forest, Sipsey Wilderness, then up to the Joyce Kilmer Naitonal Forest in NC.
I am hoping to shop GW this weekend looking for a different dress to wear to the wedding. Wayne is going to an SAR event near Harper's Ferry and I might just stay here and run up to Staunton for shopping and visiting with Tigger.
OR, I may run up tomorrow right after work if JoAnn is free. I REALLY want to go back to the restaurant!! I have been dreaming about the ALFREDO ever since our last visit. I thought Wayne would be eager to try out the alfredo, but he is so busy.
I had a great time, too and hope to see you down here again soon!
