I don’t know how to say this. I don’t know if there is something wrong with me (outside of the obvious) or I have some kind of memory loss issue or hit my head last night (wine) or what but I really am in shock at how badly I dropped the ball this time. This morning after my run I went to make eggs for breakfast, per usual and discovered…
I WAS COMPLETELY OUT OF SRIRACHA! Dun dun duuuuuuuunnnnnn.
This has never happened before because luckily for me I am a food hoarder. I buy Sriracha, and basically all my favorite foods, before I’m even close to being out of them so I never have to live one minute without: Sriracha, watermelon, iced coffee, chocolate…
So obviously this is of great concern because I’m now convinced I have early onset Srirachiosis.
Luckily, my friends at the G ‘mills sent me a supply of cereal so I had breakfast all worked out!
And now the moment you’ve all been waiting for…
Starbucks Iced Coffee Review
Yesterday I picked up the ready to drink Starbucks iced coffee from the refrigerated section at Target.
I try not to drink coffee after 3 pm because I’ve heard it impacts sleep patterns so I waited until this morning to give it a whirl. I tasted it black and it’s pretty smooth and not too strong, but I mixed it with almond milk and stevia for the full effect.
Verdict: Dig it. I like that it’s not too strong straight up. I like that it’s so easy to ‘make’ versus making regular hot coffee or cold brew. And even though it’s more expensive than making a pot of hot coffee it’s cheaper to drink this than going to Starbucks for iced coffee every day.
In other kinda new food reviews… I am digging this Lemon Twist Hummus from Sabra! I love lemon in water, but don’t usually like it on food. However I am obsessed with this flavor of hummus.
Happy Taco Tuesday or Wednesday or whenever you’re reading this.
Okay… now I’m off to the store and then I actually do have a lil Taco Tuesday party to attend!
just an fyi, there are some Starbucks that offer you a refill on coffee, iced coffee or tea, I don’t know how to find out, but the one at my office does, and my refill is $.67 or something crazy like that
Officially I only have one bottle open in the pantry.
The hoarder in me knows that I have an emergency Sriracha stash tucked away plus the two bottles I keep at my work desk for work food emergencies. They happen, I admit it.
Buy at least a dozen. Maybe two!!
Okay, I’m actually LOLing at the fact that we BOTH used a graphic of Jack Black saying “I want a hot body, but I also want tacos” in our posts today.
#totallytwinning (I wish it was Tuesday so I could add “onatuesday”
Actually my dinner might just be tacos tonight. I have to teach a class and then have a meeting an hour later in the same area so I can’t go home. There is a fancy taco place right across the street that is calling my name…
I have plenty of sriracha here if you want some!
My husband came home with three bottles of hot sauce last night. Very good husband, you get a biscuit.
Dinner last night was prawn linguini (50% linguini, 50% courgetti). I’m prioritising the hot body over the tacos, even though I could gladly eat 100 tacos right now (and it’s 9.23am here as I write this…).
My biggest fear is running out of my must have staples. I have, like, three extra bottles of ketchup and jars of pickles at all times.
Convinced the boyfriend to make it a taco Tuesday tonight (I want tacos every day, so he tries to minimize the taco madness).
Pretty sure you should always have at least 2 bottles of sriracha to avoid this situation in the future. 😉
Right now we have about 4-5 bottles of Sriracha stored in our cabinet right now. We panicked when the Sriracha plant made the news due to their neighbors complaining about the strong smell. There was a possibility the plant would need to shut down causing a Sriracha shortage. Luckily that never happened, but we weren’t taking any chances. If a Sriracha crisis strikes, we’re ready!
You can cold brew coffee (directions on pinterest) . It does take about 12 hours so you have to plan it out. But that’s how I make my iced coffees and pretty much the only way I make coffee since ice is my favorite! Fyi a coconut coffee with coconut milk tastes like Hawaii!
i wasnt planning on tacos, but after the day ive had? oh yeah. (no im much more of an enchilada girl….)
and i…. actually…. don’t eat siracha. !!! I know! I hate spicy stuff, and hot stuff. I’m such a pansy hahaha
Tostada Tuesday here! And per the Fun Fact about coffee: I should die daily. oops.
I had planned for a taco Tuesday but need to use up leftovers first! Tacos and margaritas are the best!!
You should have a dozen bottles on hand. No joke.
I am having leftover chicken and potatoes for dinner. Plus I’m sure I will have my hand in the bag of chocolate chips too.
I’m moving on Thurs. so I’m trying to eat whatever is left in my kitchen so it doesn’t go to waste…so tonight it’s turkey meatballs and black beans…frozen & canned…whatever works!
