Taster's Choice

I am not a coffee drinker, I've never liked the taste. I prefer my tea to be iced, hot drinks make me thirstier for some reason. I will, however, sell my mother into slavery for a good cup of hot chocolate.

You can imagine my surprise and delight when I found out Dunkin Donuts was selling frozen hot chocolate this summer. It's delicious, basically a shake w/ ice. I always opt for the small w/out wHipped cream. Yes, that is a bit kooky but I am still calorie conscious.

Yesterday, I had some time to kill before my reiki session so I partook of some Starbucks. My favourite thing in the whole wide world is the truly awesome Vivanno. In layman's terms, it's a flavoured smoothie w/ banana & ice. It's like a taste party in mouth!!!

I am now placing these two tasty treats in a head to head 50 Kinds of Awesome competition.

Taste: Vivanno gets a slight edge because of the banana

Convenience: DD, only because they have a strong on the Capital District

Calories: Vivanno, beats the frozen hot chocolate by almost 100 calories

The winner is the chocolate Vivanno!! But don't take my word for it, decide for yrselves.....freedom of choice is what you want.

Weekend Photos

Model Material

Last week I did not watch Top Model, therefore no recap this week. From what I gleaned from http://www.televisionwithoutpity.com/, Teyona had the weekly winning photo. She's odd in a way I don't like. And hitting the bricks, London for being too fat. Huh? Evidently, she's gained about 10 lbs since the filming started on Top Model. I call bullshit. I remember from Cycle 4 bitchy Kenya gained 10 lbs and she made it to the top 3. What kills me is that London is not fat, obese nor even pudgy! I do not understand the judging criteria on the this silly show.

Now you may ask yrselves, what could have been more important than watching an awesomely bad reality show? I recently re-connected with an old acquaintance that I knew from grade school through high school via Facebook. One of her passions is photography and as a favour to her, I sat for a portrait session. And it was also free therapy to get over my picture phobias.

It was amazing, I had forgotten what a great time it can be hanging out w/ a female w/ no other dudes hanging about. I learned a few lessons, my hair doesn't take to the curling iron, I can love my flaws, accept things I cannot change and popcorn and avocados make a fantastic dinner.

Tell me what you think.
