Fun Drink Friday - Gevalia Kaffe

So I had a coupon and it was on sale and I decided to try it out.

My son's unloading the grocery bags and says, "Isn't this the coffee with that blonde guy in the commercial."
I answered. "Yeah, it was on sale and I had a coupon, so I figured I'd give it a try."
He shrugs his shoulders and continues to unload the bags. 
 teenagers. 
He's funny. He's tried coffee, and has no liking for it. He tells me, he'll stick to his tea (Earl Grey is the fav). 

I have to say I do like this coffee! It's smooth and has strength to it, but it's NOT bitter. I like that!! AND, AND, it's 100% Arabic coffee!! Another big hit with me!! 

Thank you blonde Gevalia Kaffee guy from the commercial, you're right, it's not just another cup of Joe

Wednesday's Herb -- Cinnamon


Cinnamon, Cinnamon, Cinnamon

I love Cinnamon and use it daily. I tap a little of the ground Cinnamon in my coffee every morning or on my blueberry waffles, or in my oatmeal.
Why...

Well years ago, they ( doctors) wanted to put me on medicine for my cholesterol.  Now take in to effect when I say years ago, I'm talking about 20 years ago, when I was in my twenties.
Of course I said...go blow 

there was no way I was going on cholesterol medicine at twenty-something years old.
So I looked for a solution.
CINNAMON

Cinnamon is known to lower cholesterol, and I have to say it's been working for me for 20 years. The last time I had my blood work done, I was right on target. YAY ME

From what I understand it also helps with type 2 diabetes and blood sugar. 
There is a chemical in Cinnamon which has also been known to help with menstrual, and arthritis pain.
It's a NATURAL food preservative and has anti-infectious compounds.

So yeah, I like my Cinnamon.

Coffee Quotes ... :-)


The morning cup of coffee has an exhilaration about it which the cheering influence of the afternoon or evening cup of tea cannot be expected to reproduce.  ~Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr., "Over the Teacups," 1891

 No coffee can be good in the mouth that does not first send a sweet offering of odor to the nostrils.  ~Henry Ward Beecher

A morning without coffee is like sleep.  ~Author Unknown

Mothers are those wonderful people who can get up in the morning before the smell of coffee. ~Author Unknown 

Hope everyone has a great day!!
