Chocolate Biscotti
A work colleague once asked me if I order in restaurants the same way that I order coffee. I thought his comment was pretty funny, especially since the weekend before my husband had said I was a waiter’s worst nightmare.
“What do you mean?” I asked my husband.
“Well, you like to change everything in the dish. You want to order the steamed fish but have them fry it instead, and have the sauce on the side instead of pouring it over the fish – and if it comes with potatoes, you want rice instead!” He said.
Surely he was exaggerating!
But I did have to concede to my work colleague that being finicky with my coffee never earned me any brownie points with the baristas. One day I’m having a cappuccino with one sugar then the next I’m having it with one and a half sugars. Then I learned that you get more milk with a latte so I switched to that (with one sugar). Then I went off coffee and started having chai lattes – then soy chai lattes, then I missed my coffees and got back on to the lattes – but I wanted a weak latte, one and a half sugars and chocolate sprinkles on top…. oh and extra creamy.
And then I switched to tea – but that’s a whole different story altogether!
