Recipe: Homemade Coffee Creamer

No Comments »

Alright folks. I told you in a previous post that if my attempt at making homemade coffee creamer came out good, I would share the recipe. Well, it came out amaaaaazing. I feel like I'm drinking REAL coffee now! It would be wrong of me to not give Crystal from MrsHappyHomemaker.com a shout out though; after all, she is the one who came up with this glorious recipe. THANK YOU, CRYSTAL!!

It is SUCH a simple recipe with a TON of variations. I made the French Vanilla one for this first attempt so that is the recipe I will be sharing...but if you want to try all the other flavors, visit Crystal's original post here!

It's just that simple! :)

I've never really been one to hang out on my own. If I'm alone, I'd rather just stay home. Occasionally, I go out alone if I'm on a mission—if I need to get some groceries or stop at the post office.


Today, I had plans to meet a friend but she was running a bit late. Since it was raining, I didn't want to sit outside and wait for her. So I wandered in and out of stores instead. It was kind of relaxing and refreshing. I didn't buy anything (marriage is the pinnacle of sales resistance!) but it was nice nonetheless. 

When my friend finally arrived, she took me to the cutest coffee shop/cafe! Far less commercialized than Starbucks and significantly more hipster than Portola (sorry, friends!) this place is definitely my new Birmingham go-to spot. I can't wait to bring other people to it! 

I bought a milkshake and they served it to me in a glass milk jug! Plus points! Next time, I want to try a latte! My friend also informed me that their pizzas are really good as well! 

Sorry for the photo shortage. I felt awkward taking pics haha.

I saw this on Pinterest this morning and I don't know if all of this is true, but I can only hope. I don't drink nearly as much coffee as some people, but I have a hard time functioning without it!
