Back from our Halloween date – it poured on us all day. Who cares, we had fun. Ate lunch at Red Lobster. I love shrimp scampi. Took her to every craft and fabric store in town (without complaining!). Found some cacao nibs at the food mart. Now I have to figure out how much to use. Could not find any candy cane lane or sugar cookie sleigh ride but they now have a huge Ahmad selection (my favorite cheap tea). We started the morning with a stop at Starbucks. Since discovering that when this EG is fresh it is actually pretty good, this is the first time I have been somewhat disappointed. New girl behind the counter. She had a deer in the headlight look and had to have help. It showed. It was weak and bitter. How do you get weak and bitter?

Nibs—I add a third- to a half-teaspoon to whatever it is I’m steeping. Ahmad on a store shelf—cool!

Thanks. Hope to try some nibs tomorrow.

Ahmad – this is the store where I have bought all of my non-Amazon Ahmad but the selection has always been very limited. I was kind of sorry to have such a large home stash at the moment.

The servers at Red Lobster know me by name during shrimpfest. They go “in the hole” when I show up. Agreed on the scampi! Happy anniversary to you to and many more! P.S. I won’t rib you about not having a frapp today.
