Hump Day Poll: What Takes YOU Back?

In a world that is spiraling down the toilet  ever changing, and sometimes not for the better, there are small things we can do to create little pockets of nostalgia from a simpler time.  It's harder and harder to find things from your childhood and if you do, often they aren't the same.  (I still lament the death of the taste of Chef Boy Ardee boxed pizza mix.  Sigh) But for me, there are a few scents that I can rely on that are still out there.  When we were dating, one of my favorite scents was that spray musk and I was tickled to still be able to find it!  One spritz of it and I'm ready for a night on the town with the teenaged Mr in his Iroc.  I was also happy to find Night Magic from Avon is still available and gives me that same feeling.  My friend got it for me last year and with as much as I use it (rarely to never), I'll have it until I'm dust.  (I did find the solid perfume compact in a bin and still have it if I want to be truly...

Drink Up: Holiday Hump Day Poll



Now that we're in the swing of things, it's time to cozy up at night for a holiday cuppa.   What do you reach for?

Hot Chocolate, Hot Mulled Cider, Eggnog or something else?  Do you keep it non-alcoholic or has it been a day and you need some liquid chill?

(I'm going for hot chocolate or spiced cider every time.)

  1. Always love hot chocolate but this time of year I gotta have me some eggnog too and I have never liked the alcoholic kind. Just give it to me straight up!

  2. My grandmother made a cold green punch with lime sherbet, long ago. It also includes pineapple juice and sprite. I think she used it for parties. I remembered it a couple years ago and now make it for New Years (when I normally have a house full). I make it in a punch bowl, always, part of the charm.

    My biggest issue - lime sherbet is very hard to find.

  3. Hot Chocolate is a special treat and I usually spike it with some Bailey's Irish Cream or candy cane liqueur. But on regular days I'll reach for an apple cider flavored herbal tea. I love it but I don't actually like real apple cider or hot mulled cider.

  4. Well, when I'm not being lazy, I try to drink tea. I love hot chocolate and have all the stuff for it, but I have yet to enjoy a cup this year...literaly, a year! I've had to throw out more stale marshmallows than I care to admit. Every weekend I say I should make some hot chocolate, then I see a shiny piece of cellophane wrapper on the floor from a random dog biscuit and my mind is already off subject. Hence, I mostly drink water. ROFL

  5. I'm not much of a tea drinker, but I do like hot chocolate, cider and eggnog. I'm not much of a drinker, but once in a while I do like to add a little "kick" to whatever I'm drinking.

  6. Homemade hot chocolate, with chocolate pieces, and a shot (or two) of Peppermint Schnapps!
