Chocolate Espresso Granola Recipe

I’ve been baking this particular granola for over a year now and I’m kind of ashamed I’m just getting around to sharing the recipe here! Do you want your house to smell like a coffee shop? Are you looking for a delicious snack, breakfast, or even a gift for a loved one? Bake this granola!

It’s filled with oats, almonds, cocoa, and of course, espresso! I love eating it in a bowl with milk, but it’s amazing by the handful, on top of yogurt, or sprinkled on coffee ice cream for an extra caffeine boost ☕️

Pepper Wars

Ready for a really random story? My brother-in-law recently gave Jimmy a bunch of potatoes and green peppers from his garden. We’ve had them sitting in a bag on our counter the past few days and Sadie kept taking a pepper and putting it on our bathroom counter to “decorate.”

She does this with random things all. the. time. but has never done it with food. I kept moving the pepper back to the kitchen, and kept finding it back in the bathroom! Jimmy decided to start a pepper war and took three of the peppers and placed them around Sadie’s bedroom.

She thought that was so funny and took it as a challenge. So what did she do? She took the peppers out of her room and put them into baby’s nursery (where Jimmy spends most of his time at home lately) so he would find them there.
