i concocted these coffee cookie sandwiches with pumpkin filling over the weekend that i've been nibbling between meals this week. i made several batches, each batch with progressively more instant coffee because i didn't think they tasted coffee-ish enough. the cookies are addicting, which should come at no surprise because of the caffeine in them, but what is surprising is the fact that i didn't think they were affecting me. until i found myself up late for 2 nights in a row (and judging by the time on this post, the third will be closely following the others).
long story short, i was up all night which made getting up this morning even harder than usual. i must have pressed the snooze button for an entire hour until i was woken up by the feeling of pressure on my arm and finally pried my eyes open to figure out the culprit. it was my cat, B. she had literally stepped onto me gently with her 2 front paws as if to shake me. and then she'd made a very clear, very audible noise that wasn't quite a meow because it was firmer. it said, "get up NOW."
who needs alarms when you have cats?
