Thankful for Peppermint Mochas!

Today I am thankful that it is Peppermint Mocha season again!  Peppermint Mochas just might be my very favorite beverage (besides water, which I love!), but due to the need to control both my budget and my waistline I limit myself to only enjoying them when it is actually "Peppermint Mocha Season" at my favorite coffee joints.  Whilst many people are going ga-ga over Pumpkin Spice Lattes, I am merely waiting for the next seasonal speciality to debut for the year! 

I admit to indulging in several already this year and have quite enjoyed each and everyone one of them.  I typically request "half the flavoring" when I indulge in a sugary drink and with the peppermint mochas this seems to be the perfect amount of pepperminty goodness! 

I love being able to sip on one of these while Christmas shopping, while wrapping lovingly selected gifts, while spending time with loved ones, or during my annual watching of It's a Wonderful Life!  I'm reminded to just slow down and enjoy something for myself every once in awhile!
