Earlier this week I had our yearly oil heater cleaning. While the guy was there, Cookie decided to help out and crawl behind the heater. Thanks, Cooks!
While he was draining and cleaning and such, I had a little time on my hands. Every once in a while I get physically ill from the lack of order in my house. Todd and I aren't slobs per se (I have to look up that spelling EVERY time I use it) but we're certainly a little lazy as the day carries on: flip flops, a pair of work pants or a bra on our living room floor aren't uncommon decorations. I decided to take advantage of this time and tidy up the kitchen a bit...and by the kitchen, I mean the espresso/coffee maker. I'm cutting back on caffeine these days so I've been making half caf coffee (so that side is clean) but I wanted a latte....and I didn't want to pay for it. And try ordering a half caf latte from Dunkin Donuts, by the way. There's little to no chance you'll get what you ordered.
Three rounds of hot water and vinegar later, the espresso side was all cleaned up. So I made me a latte. And it was good. I decided to keep the trend going so I made another today. Since I saved about $3.50 making a latte at home I figured pancakes and bacon from Wawa was in order for breakfast. And it was good.

i've never understood the combination of pancakes and bacon. ok, i know bacon can pretty much make anything better but pancakes are all doughy and sweet, i don't wanna mix crunchy bacon with that. i'm probably in the minority.
