Yes, the last day of school was at the end of June and I am posting about it nearly a month later!!
I wanted a little something special for the boys at the end of the year, so here is what we made:
A blog about cooking from scratch, homey hand made things, and life in the midst busy days.

Spiced Espresso
I love espresso, just in case that wasn't already obvious! All beans are not grown or roasted equally. Find out about the ones you use; are they ethically grown? harvested? fairly traded? organic? treated chemically?
There are times when I feel the need for a flavour in my coffee, something more than just the warm, welcoming hug of espresso mixed with hot water.
In those cases, I often end up in front of my spice rack, wondering what to grind with the beans. Sometimes it is whole green cardamom, other times it is cinnamon, vanilla, or oil of oregano (yep).
Have you tried herbs or spices in your morning brew? Did you like it? What have you tried?
