• 1 1/2 cups chilled brewed coffee
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 cups crushed ice
• 3 drops Stevia Extract Liquid Dark Chocolate by *Now
• Blend!

 

The love of a sister:

Bed time is hard when you are 2.  Tonight Ethan was giggly - which is funny & cute.  Until you ask him 3 times to go to bed.  Then we take his favorite blanky, followed by favorite pillow pet - which leads to major crying & even more attempts to come out & ask for his stuff back.  Pretty soon you hear Elizabeth telling him it will be ok, just close his eyes & go to sleep, while she sings him a bedtime song. :)
