Sunday we had single digit weather. It has been very cold these days so with that comes my craving for hot chocolate and.......PERO. Have you heard of it or tried it? I know this might sound weird but I REALLY like it! I love coffee flavored things and this reminds me of coffee but without the coffee! No caffeine, roasted flavor, made of barley, chicory and rye. There is no sugar, only 5 calories, and no fat. But you have to do it right. I add a little cream and voila! My mom and dad used to serve this after a dinner party in fancy tea cups with cream and sugar. I was always intrigued. So give it a try! I even got Kelly hooked!

That is SOOOOO funny. I have been drinking Pero since I was a kid and still LOVE it. This has been a sore spot in our marriage, however. Randy can't STAND it and especially hates it when he kisses me after I've has a cup. Now that he's gone for three weeks i can drink all I want w/o any crap from him!!!!
I love Pero. The kids think I'm a sinner for drinking it no matter how many times I tell them it's not coffee. It used to be my ritual to have a hot cup of it after I put the kids to bed each night, and Pierce used to hide the Pero somewhere in the house from me each night so I wouldn't drink it! I like cream in mine, but also a packet of Splenda to sweeten it up a bit. Yum!
That is so funny because I save mine for when the kids go to bed too! Funny too that Pierce hid your jar from you!!!!
It is so nice to see you back online!!
