Leftover cream of leek & cauliflower soup with nooch.

A banana, linseed, pecan nut and vanilla, soya protein smoothie.
 
I attempted to make another soy latte today. It's getting better every time I try it. The trick is making the coffee strong enough (I don't have an espresso machine or anything, so I'm using Italian dark roast beans and a French press) and getting the sweetness right. I don't like them super sweet, but I like a little bit of something. I'm thinking I might try either making or buying some sort of vanilla syrup.

Yes, you're right. I also make chilled milky drinks quite often. I always use a small amount of very strong coffee and a lot of chilled milk and cream. I always sweeten with stevia.

I wish I liked stevia. I am one of those people who think it tastes like chemicals, so I don't really like it. I flavored this one with coffee syrup and a dash of vanilla. It was decent enough to drink, but I still need to tinker. One the plus side, I got the milk nice and frothy (I have a frother as well). The coffee still must be stronger, but it was close to how I like it. :) If I get this down to a science, I can really cut down on getting the lattes at Starbucks. :D

But I found it:

I managed to get a screenshot of my deleted post. I need to either get a life or stop waking up at 3 am. I scare me, sometimes, lol.

Omg Thanksgiving leftovers. Today had 1/4 huge acorn squash with stuffing and gravy, half baked potato with the crockpot deliciousness on top. Some cranberry sauce. Planning on cookie dough coconut milk ice creme later on.

That sounds nice Led.:)

I had a very strong mug of espresso with soya milk/cream and stevia. A bowl of piping hot porridge made with a drizzle of evo and served with blueberries, sliced bananas, soya cream and a tiny sprinkle ( a hint) of cinnamon.

It is freezing cold this morning and my breakfast warmed me up.
