“Real gold doesn't start its journey in a display window at Tiffany. It's dug out of the dirty earth. Sometimes true gold doesn't glitter. It may need a little polishing, but don't let that bit of needed patience or effort trick you into discarding what could be the greatest treasure of your life.”

I took a leap-of-faith and made your Norwegian egg coffee. The coffee syrup never lead me wrong, but I was skeptical about this one. It's good, though! I'm drinking it, now. Next time, I won't doubt you. LOL.
