HAVE CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP WITH CHOPPED POTATOES YUM YUM

[Lemon Cheesecake]

Thank you for your recipes! It's great to share a picture if possible: especially if it is something cute!

I am SO hungry!!

[Lemon Cheesecake]

Did anyone try making the totoro tarts? Japanese food is so adorable, you want to be able to keep it forever! I wonder how the sesame pudding they used tastes - I like sesame seeds so maybe it would be good?

I made a similar chicken soup, Kit, without noodles though. I hate when I run out of noodles and forget to buy more or have an over abundance of some noodles and not the one I want to use!

It was so hot today I ate a mango popsicle, and then I ate a lime popsicle and now I think I am going to eat a lemon popsicle...

I actually found Huckleberry ice cream!! I miss picking wild huckleberries. I don't even think they will grow here. I am trying to grow blueberries but not doing so well (might be better if they got watered regularly)

i have a recipe for french vanilla blueberry oatmeal but i don't have exact measurements for it , would it still be alright for me to post it?

[Lemon Cheesecake]

If it works without exact measurements then why not! Someone maybe good at figuring out the exact measurements... I have a tendency to just "wing" the measurements most of the time myself anyway and in some recipes I may add more flavoring then what it calls for anyway.

french vanilla blueberry sounds yuuummmy

[Maro]

Okay so you basically do your oatmeal as you usually like it ... i have sugar and butter and cinnamon and nutmeg in mine usually, instead of milk you use a french vanilla creamer and instead of hot water you can use brewed coffee, if you don`t have that on hand instant coffee put in and then adding boiled water works too. After all that you put in some fresh blueberries and mix them in with the oatmeal and enjoy, i sometimes do this with marmalade or strawberry jam instead but i find i like blueberries the best with it.

I have never heard of making oatmeal with coffee but I am going to try it! (Even though I am not a big oatmeal fan since it makes me itchy, I eat it once in awhile and I make the sacrifice for Oatmeal cookies!)

It sounds like a great menu item for a coffee shop - I'm surprised Starbucks hasn't latched onto the idea!

[Maro]

I plan on eventually opening up a cafe myself some day and it'll be one of my menu items for sure eheh..

[Lemon Cheesecake]

Maro: have you worked at a coffee shop at all for building experience? Actually Starbucks has good benefits. A small town cafe definitely has its charm, especially when everyone knows everyone and it is like a social gathering place.
I don't think it is for me though, the people I know who own their own shops etc seem to be working 24/7. I'm more for going in and doing my job and leaving and not having to worry about work until the next day. It's not that I don't mind working - because I have always had excellent reviews from my employers - but i appreciate my free time more and I've had to fill in as management and I really don't like all that responsibility because everything then falls on you.I shine more at being a helper.

What ideas have you had for a shoppe? I keep trying to talk our local java joe place to do bobba tea as well.

[Maro]

I have worked at a few different cafes and such over the past couple years and talked to a lot of owners as well. I've always dreamed of having my own cafe the only problem is trying to decide on menus and times to be open and other such things is all.
