Triathlon 2010 training started in earnest ; I am running swimming biking almost daily. This now means - I get to drink Chocolate Milk - not only as a sweet reward but also as an effective tonic - to ensure I consume extra protein and carbo for a speedy recovery.
Having been entirely underwhelmed by OTC offerings of Carnation, Ovaltine and Hershey Choco Syrup (really really gross, although I loved it when I was a kid.), I whipped up a ChocoMilk Starter today. 1 Cup of steamed Whip/Heavy Cream + a Bar of Chili-laced Dark Chocolate*.
Can I say "Oishiiiiii" - that's delicious in Japanese. I can slurp it straight out of the mason jar - but a spoonful will be good with either hot/cold milk chocolate.
In other news - I thought I bought a bunch of Spinach (it was in a bag, so I didn't sniff) today - it turned out to be Basil. So ever efficient, I whipped dinner in my darling Mini-Cuisinart --- Presto Pesto Penne with Prawns (4Ps!)
