Breakfast dessert

Ahem.


I believe I have discovered, almost single handedly (ahem again), the perfect breakfast dessert.

(be honest, I know I'm not the only one who has breakfast dessert sometimes, right?)


I have made many frozen treats this Summertime.  Different fruit sorbets, fruity whips and a number of litres of ice cream of differing flavours. Recently, I decided to try the recipe I had for making the basic ice cream but with the coffee variation. Yeah! I hear you all say. Grown-up ice cream. I thought so too.


It was a slightly out-of-body experience as I measured the said weight in coffee granules and tasted it to be sure it was about right.


The following night when all was quiet and I had a little Mama time I thought, 'I'll try that ice cream'. And try I did. I am going to blame, partially, what it was I was investigating on the computer, because I was completely absorbed in what I was doing. The other partial blame lies with the fact that it just tasted soooo damn good. I probably had more then a single serve or five. So, then I went to bed....

Funny, I feel all tingly. My limbs are buzzing. Finally, three hours later I went to sleep. For an hour. Then up again for another four. 
The house had begun to stir by this time. Thankfully Dada was able to let me try for another hour or so.


I think there's a lesson here. Maybe in this instance it is: When you've been pregnant and or breast feeding for over five years straight and made a conscious decision to limit caffeine perhaps consider the intake you might have in one go, especially after nine o'clock at night.

Hey, there is an upside of all this;
I now feel completely reasonable when I take a scoop right after breakfast. 
He, he.
