Hi tOdd
(and RoscOe!),
Here's the recipe for my official holiday
caffeine (and sugar) fix.
Pumpkin
Pie Mocha
1 cup milk (any kind)
2 teaspoons cocoa powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice*
Hot coffee or espresso
Whipped cream (optional)
Sprinkle of nutmeg (optional)
Heat the milk in a saucepan or the microwave.
Whisk in the cocoa powder, sugar, and pumpkin pie spice. Transfer to a blender
and whir for 7-10 seconds, to get a bit of a frothy consistency going.
Fill mugs with half
coffee or espresso, and half hot pumpkin mocha mixture.
Top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of
nutmeg, if you're a fancy-pants like me.
Makes about 2 servings.
*You can get
ready-mixed pumpkin pie spice at the grocery store, on the spice aisle, or just
make your own using the recipe below:

Pumpkin Pie Spice
1/4 cup cinnamon
2 tablespoons ground ginger
2 teaspoons ground nutmeg

a lidded container.

I'm a long time reader first time writer-in-er. So I thought I would share one of my absolute fav meals it's pretty simple pretty cheap and damn good. So here it is
Po' Chops A Chunky (Trust me it's better than the name which I stole from the movie How High)
Ok so you need 4 pork chops for the amounts i'm using
1 Clove of garlic (not the whole big bulb just one of the sections) you can use garlic powder but it's not as good
1 med onion
1 can of cream of mushroom soup
1 can of cream of chicken soup
salt and pepper
some kind of glass baking dish ( i use a long pyrex cassarole dish )
Turn oven to 425
arange the pork so it is all sitting on the bottom of the dish cut up your onion and garlic and throw it on top of the pork add salt and pepper now in a mixing bowl mix the 2 cans of soup and one can of water mix it all up and pour this on top of everything. put it in the oven (do not cover unless you want to scrub the oven when your done) for 40-45 minutes serve with rice (i like to pour the soupy stuff on the rice) and mixed veggies
You can also substitute with chicken (same temps and times) or salmon (or any fish i guess) and cream of celery (400F only about 25-30 min)
It's not a quick meal but the prep is simple. if you live anywhere that acually has a cold snowy winter you'll probably enjoy this one. you don't need to use prime pork and kind of chops you can find like or afford works great. as far as the chicken it works best with the breast which isn't all that cheap but really good and the salmon is very good too. bon appetite.
