Monday morning was very frosty indeed.
On Sunday afternoon the pond was still frozen solid, so it was clear it would be a heavy frost- I think everything looks so pretty when it is covered in white- even the cars!
Anyway, welcome to another WIAW and head over to Peas and Crayons if you fancy having a nose at what other people are eating.
Breakfast– muesli, apple, soya milk, peppermint tea.
I did brave a little walk outside, and was hungry for my lunch after that- partly from the cold I think.
Lunch:
Toasted sourdough with mixed nut butter and blackcurrant spread, grapes, and satsumas. That sourdough was sooooooo good- we had some at the weekend but I think it was even better toasted. If I lived in San Francisco I would visit Boudins every day.
Snack:
A few chocolate pecans and a tea-pigs latte.
Can you see the heart shape? I will get better! Love the Aerolatte for the froth!
Dinner:
Not sure what it was! It was from the freezer and it was not labelled (I normally label everything)- it seemed to be giant cous cous, black eye beans, carrots, sweet potato, peppers, tomatoes… It was tasty anyway. With rocket and nutritional yeast.
Dessert:
A provamel caramel pot that tastes just like those little tubs of creme caramel you can get with all the yoghurts. Yum. π
And look what picture got emailed to me today:
From here. I do find the actual video rather funny (especially when he phones the girl), plus I love silly puns, and I love tea!
I think I had about 5 cups of tea that day- peppermint, vanilla rooibos, raspberry, peach, spiced winter…. I needed it to stay warm.
What is your favourite warm drink?
Haha! That teapot is HILARIOUS!
Ohmygosh those chocolate pecans look amazing! I need some of those in my life!
My fave hot drink is either normal (English breakfast) tea or hot chocolate! I love coffee but I like it more for it’s caffeine than taste!
Ha love the teapot! i’m a big tea and hot choc fan to keep me warm.
My ‘default’ tea has always been a nice cup of earl grey but when the weather is cold like this I like to add in some fruit and herbal teas. I could drink earl grey and coffee all day long but I don’t like the thought of all that caffiene and having to add milk every time. I also love spiced teas like chai, and your vanilla rooibos sounds nice too.
LMFAO. i would have consumed a dramatic amount of tea if lionel richie graced the surface of my teapot, too. hahahahahahaha!
Glad you all liked the teapot π Made me chuckle too.
Bronagh- Waitrose do the vanilla rooibos tea (their “Love life” range or something)- think it was 99- for 20 or something. It is tasty too.
I think I drink about 8 large cups of tea a day at least, its an ongoing joke at work how much I drink! I love my green tea of course then I go through phases with others. At the moment I’m on a peppermint kick! That tea pot is cool!
Ha ha to the teapot! π
I love all your eats – museli, sourdough, peppermint tea… looks like a good day of eats to me! π
I like minty teas and fruity ones too. TBH, I’m not picky with tea at all. I’ll drink pretty much anything. I am partial to a good old proper tea with milk as well. That’s probably my favourite warming tea!
Oh God, the tea thing made me wince and cringe a little in the best possible way – I do love a good pun.
Monday was bloomin freezing up here too – my toes nearly dropped off when I was out on my bike for a bit.
I love to drink cocoa, but I really shouldn’t get through so much of it – I put loads of rice milk and stevia in it and I probably drink an entire meal’s worth of calories in cocoa every day :/

I love the teapot, awesome! Been meaning to try an aerolatte for ages as well.
Haha I love that teapot! My favourite hot drink has to be some sort of herbal tea. I really like peppermint and at the moment I am loving Clipper orange and coconut tea.
I like the sound of chocolate pecans – anything by Montezuma is usually delicious.
That teapot’s genius! And where did you get the Montezuma butterscotch pecans?? I need them in my life, fact. I like the idea of a mystery dinner too π
I love tea & occasionally hot chocolate if it’s made with steamed milk and good cocoa! π
Ha ha I saw that picture on Facebook a few weeks ago and loved it! Tea is most definitely my favourite drink!
I want to get into tea more. I am a coffee drinker and love warm drinks on a cold winters day, but the caffeine can be bad at night. I like the sound of vanilla tea π
My mom got some of those chocolate pecans for Christmas, and they were amazing! I think I ate almost all of them by myself!
I love the sound of orange and coconut tea- will have to look out for that one. I have some mandarin and ginger tea which is lovely.
The pecans came from the Montezuma’s online shop- I went to look, must have signed up for an email, and didn’t order anything, then a bit later they sent me an email saying they noticed I visited the site but didn’t buy anything, so sent me a 10% off voucher. Well, it was rude not to use it surely!
It’s been really cold here too! I’m so ready for the Summer!
My favorite warm drink is tea and CocoCardio. π
