All four stories are fun Christmas stories that include their own meddling matchmakers.

Fell in love with a coffee house's Iced Dark Chocolate Chai Tea Latte. Did not fall in love with the price. Decided my cravings should be listened to at a more reasonable cost. So, I experimented and came up with an easy, great-tasting alternative to spending $7 a cup.

I'll be posting a link to my recipe in my first October newsletter, because this drink has the perfect flavor combination for fall. Sign up at the link in my bio.
