Coffee & Maple Syrup Glazed Turkey Bacon Recipe
A few weeks ago I bought a bottle of 100% Organic Maple Syrup for the first time - and it was an eye-opening experience. I'd never had the real stuff before and I fell in love with the subtler sweetness, not as overpowering as the fake stuff I've been using, and the just all over more mellow, natural taste. My first mind-blowing taste of simple, all natural maple syrup is what inspired the recipe I can't wait to share with you guys today: Coffee & Maple Syrup Glazed Turkey Bacon.

[Book Review] Goosebumps Most Wanted Special Edition #1: Zombie Halloween By R. L. Stine & Coffee Shop Of Horrors Hare’m Scare’m Demented Harvest Autumn Spice

Cafe Mocha Nightcap Recipe

The Cafe Mocha Nightcap recipe I want to share with you guys is essentially just making a rich hot chocolate and adding a shot of coffee booze, but it's perfect for cozy winter nights around the fire, alone or with company. Its rich and decadent tasting, with a nice boozy kick, and, once again, super easy to make! (You may be noticing a pattern here - I'm a big fan of simple recipes with minimal ingredients).

The Dead House is a fantastically dark, chilling mystery told in a very unique case-file style that uses newspaper clippings, transcripts, reports, and very detailed diary entries to tell the story of a very unique girl, two “sisters” trapped in one body, and the horrifying events involving her at Elmbridge High, an English co-ed boarding school, that ended in death and destruction.

Making My Own Coffee-Infused Vodka
I've really been having a blast playing around with coffee lately. With the holiday season coming up so soon, I thought it might be fun to try making some coffee cocktails. I decided to begin by making my own coffee-infused vodka. If you aren't aware, it's apparently all the rage to infuse your own vodka with all kind of fun things like fruit and spices and COFFEE - and here I am jumping on the bandwagon just in time to make some seasonal cocktails.
