My Thursday 13

I am in the mood for some good ol’ Thanks Living! I am a firm believe that there are just a bazillion things I have to be thankful for. So I think for the next few weeks- I’ll give myself a category and share 13 things I am thankful for.

Today is Beverages. [Hey, it just popped into my head.]

1. Wild Cherry Pepsi (oh my, a weakness and none of that yucky diet stuff- I go for the real deal!)
2. Hot Cocoa made with warm milk and topped with whip cream and sprinkles (have I ever mentioned how much I love to gild the lily?!)
3. Chocolate Cherry Festival Coffee
4. Orange Juice mixed with Grapefruit Soda (slurpy, yum- double the goodness by planning ahead and making orange juice ice cubes)
5. Hot spiced apple cider
6. Cold apple cider (I like ‘em both- depends on whether I’m feeling hot or cold!)
7. Milk (nothing beats good ol’ milk. Oh, and don’t forget the cookies.)
8. A Nice Tall Glass of REAL Lemonade (not that Minute Maid stuff- I’m talkin’ real lemons you squeeze yourself! Slurp!)
9. My sister-in-law’s Punch (no alcohol in it at all- but it does have some of that sherbet- ooh, I like that stuff.)
10.  Cherry Lemonade from Cherry Republic in Glen Arbor, MI (ah, a drink of slurpity goodness- and they float real cherries in it too!)
11. Carmel Apple Cappuccino topped with whip cream and a very generous drizzling of caramel sauce.
12. Cranberry juice mixed with orange juice and lemon lime soda
13. Chocolate Cherry Coke (Made to order at my fave 50-60’s diner! Yum!)

There are more but these have to be my top favorites and yes, I do drink water too (just not as much as a should!)
