Today, I am thankful for a mug of hot apple cider.
I am an apple juice/cider drinker. I usually buy juice made from Colorado apples grown by Austin Farms, an organic farm in Paonia. This morning, to ward off the cold, I pour some cider into a pot, add a sprinkle of cinnamon, and heat the liquid over low heat. The spicy aroma fills the house - smells better than scented candles.
I pour the hot beverage into my favorite insulated mug - the one with the very tight lid. I savor the tart apple and cinnamon flavors all morning, taking small sips through a straw so I won't burn my mouth and to ensure that this calming beverage lasts a very long time.
For this blessing, I am grateful.Amen.
