So I was at a friends house yesterday afternoon and he has a new
espresso machine. (Super fancy, european, big bucks thing) He made me a
latte with homogenized milk...I knew it was whole milk and I thought
"I'll just figure out the points later and work around it"
Well, I almost fell over last night when I got home, looked up the milk
in the 'getting started' book and found that the latte was 8 points!
Ack! I ate salad for dinner and was super bummed about blowing 8 points
on a coffee.
Then just today...
As I was counting today's points, I realized I was looking in the wrong
place. Evaporated whole milk is 8 pts a cup. I only had regular whole
milk = 4 pts. Whoops! I went a little hungry last night cause I looked
in the wrong place.
It's like I 'made' 4 points. I'll be looking in the book a little more
closely. I feel just as mad about overshooting the points than
undershooting the points and finding out the truth later.
Sorry...that's a short story made long. Had to get that off my chest
tho.
