Sweet Potato Hash

So I haven’t been blogging like I should..

I’ve been burnt out. It’s the first Friday in a very long time that I am not having to write meal plans or do check ins… and to be honest, I am quite happy about it. I have been working a full time job, doing private counseling and also buying and selling clothes (for fun) for a long time (three years or more, who knows at this point).

I need more than a two week vacation break.

And I need a vacation where I’m not working with clients. I haven’t had one of those in three years either.

One thing I found myself not doing anymore is baking/cooking/reveling in the taste of delicious foods that I myself make then shove into my mouth. There is just something so satisfying knowing that “I” did this. I made this. And it’s sooo delicious. And it makes me happy… so why did I stop?

Golden Milk Latte

The newest super-food in drink form..

And I’m obsessed.

I’ll admit it started on a trip to Austin, Tx – the city full of weird food and people. I love the culture there, it’s a place I’ve wanted to live for a long time. I probably never will, the traffic is horrible. But I like to visit and try new things.

I had actually gotten this in the cafe of the hotel we were staying in. I added 4 shots of espresso and paid my $15.00 thinking it was just another “something” I was trying on one of my adventures… Well I ended up paying nearly $60.00 by the end of the weekend gulping down my golden coffee every morning , just loving life.The worst part of it is is that I didn’t even think to try and make it at home until we went back again for a few days… stayed in the same hotel, paid the same price tag to make my insides happy. So after the second trip I decided to find out how to have my heavenly drink without breaking the bank account with trips to the weirdest city on earth.

After some trial and error I found a recipe that I tweaked to make it how I wanted it and it comes out to this:
