sometimes I don't like thinking of titles

This winter has been awesome! I keep looking at my friend TJ's pictures of all the snow that they're getting in Indiana. And while we aren't getting quite that much, it has snowed more here this winter than any other winter I can remember! There were snow flurries again today! It's so cool!

I'm watching the Food Network right now. Giada deLaurentis is making a chocolate zabaglione (a wine custard). Yum! I remember the last time I had zabaglione was in Rome. I went to eat by myself at a place in Trastevere (a neighborhood close to my hotel). It was a little intimidating and scary at first to be eating by myself, but the waiters (two helped me; one new English) were really nice. It was such a fun meal.

So, yesterday was my first day at Camille's Cafe. I was so tired from getting up at 5:30 am, but today was better. I went to bed earlier last night. :) I like working their, because the work is so varied. Sometimes, I chop; sometimes, I clean; sometimes, I assemble sandwiches; sometimes, I ring up the customers. I made my first smoothie today!! :) Yay! It was a peanut butter smoothie with whey powder, and there was a little left over so I got to try it! It was really really yummy! :)

Chocolate Peanut Butter Smoothie
2.5 oz of apple juice
2.5 oz of chocolate syrup
3 oz of peanut butter
1/2 a banana (that makes it taste really fresh)
2 tsp whey powder (vanilla flavored)
1 to 1 1/2 c ice

I suppose that I should wish my readers a Happy Valentine's Day. And as some of you will remember, it is tradition for all of us singles to get dressed up and go out to eat at Shogun. Well, the location has changed to Kobe Grill & Sushi, but we're still doing it!

I'm off!
