  1. Baba Java‘s Banana Bread latte is so cozy! While banana bread is a great year-round treat, this drink is so comforting and spicy that it’s perfect for the cold months.
  2. Cala Coffee‘s Spiced Orange Snowcapp

  5. Frothy Monkey‘s Log Cabin Latte really does taste like you’re relaxing in a log cabin in the mountains. Made with maple, black walnut, and cinnamon flavors, the hint of smoke is what really makes this drink extra special.

I currently live in the Oak Mountain area, but originally I’m from a small, one-redlight town in North Alabama. I attended Auburn University where I met my husband, a Birmingham native, and married him a couple of months after getting my Bachelors degree in 2011. Although I studied PreMed/Microbiology, I have never actually worked in the field. Instead, I have had many random jobs from seamstress to private English tutor while helping my husband through seminary. Now I have my dream job of being a stay-at-home-mom to my three daughters; E is 9, M is 7, and C is 1.5. Although my original dream of living overseas full-time isn’t likely to happen anytime soon, I am still involved in the internationals’ ministry at my church. When I’m not busy with my girls or church, you can find me cooking, listening to music or podcasts, reading, or drinking coffee while doing any of the above.
