Latte Training

I had a discussion with Deralee and since I wanted to learn the latte business, she invited me to come down & learn. So it has been train train train lately.

May 23 Monday - Went down from 8:30-1:00 to learn latte. Took notes & made some drinks. Took Bud with me and he stayed patiently in the car.

May 24 Tuesday - Rained today. Could not go down to train. Dogs scared of thunderstorms. Can't leave door open for dogs to go in/out. Cleaned house. Got down to below 50 degrees tonight with rain & cold. Hubby came home exposed to Human Parvovirus because he stopped to get parts at Garwood Wrecking.

May 25 Wednesday - Went to A-town for espresso training from 8:30 - 11:30. Made lots of drinks today. Flustered...and sprayed milk out...made drinks backwards? Trying to learn how to get "rhythm" down. Left is on/Right is off for handle on steamer. Forget to blow steam out afterwards. Forget how many shots to put in each drink. Trying desperately to get the hang of it. Need to learn drinks...then taking orders...then how to collect money. Aaaaah!

Dogs calmed me down when I got home. Had forgotten my iPhone at the latte stand. Had to go back. When I got back home, vacuumed & cleaned house. Did laundry. This work stuff really cuts into my life! LOL.

Bud was a great baby today. Posed nicely.

When hubby came home tonight, we walked the dogs in the park. It was raining a little, but the park seemed fine. Went on an extremely long walk. All the dogs were tired at the end. Dragging tongue. We drove through the park to look for deer. We saw NONE. Not even one. It was depressing. Where are they all? On the way back on Hwy 54 just out of the park, we saw one lone buck. He was trotting through the cut brush. He looked very majestic. Hope he is OK.

Got ice cream cones at Athol grocery.
