      I won the gold medal in my division at an internal kung fu tournement last weekend. No sparring. Just form performance.
      Pride exists none-the-less.

      Ahh rock climbing

      May 16th, 2006 by mike d. in climbing

      currently eating: breakfast

      Last night I went climbing for the first time in a long time. Lately I’ve just been bouldering a lot because Jesse injured his hand, but last night I met up with some folks at the gym, donned my harness, and tied into the ropes. It was rejuvenating. There’s a 5.12b that’s been consistently punching me in the face. By the halfway point my fingers really want to fall off a little bit. After two or three falls, I can eventually reach the top at which point my patient belayer lowers my limp limbs to the floor. Unfortunately, every time I get down from that route, beaten, bleeding, and broken, some teenager old runs over, clips in, and skirts up it like it was a staircase.

      I hate teenagers*.

      Dunkin!

      The Question
      Mike D asks:

      Dear Shaun,

      I recently discovered Dunkin Donut’s Dunkaccino. I want to be able to make this delicious beverage at home. My question is such:
      Can you figure out the recipe to Dunkin Donut’s Dunkaccino?

      Curious,
      mike d.

      The Answer

      Yes, yes I can.

      Oh, you want the recipe?

      Basically, the Dunkaccino is a combination of coffee, cocoa, and cream. Here’s how to whip one up.

      Make some coffee. Make some cocoa - BUT make sure to use only whole milk as the liquid in the cocoa - no water, no skim milk. Have some half-and-half on-hand. Also, you’ll need a pinch of salt. And a little non-dairy creamer.

      Your cup is half coffee. Fill with cocoa to 3/4 of the way. Mix in about 3 tablespoons of the half-and-half. Add a pinch of salt and a spoon or two of the non-dairy creamer. Mix well. Enjoy!

      NOTE: The author has not, in fact, tried this recipe. It was distilled from an ingredients list, nutrition information, and general culinary knowledge. The author does not, in fact, like coffee.

      “And just one more time….KARATE!!!”
