{Coffee}

I have come to love my morning coffee.  Especially when I drink it in this wonderful new mug my brother gave me for Christmas:)  The mug is Cath Kidston.  And I highly recommend her line of products.
Click the link and check them out.  But beware!  You will want to buy something!  Probably more than one something.  But if you do cave and purchase something you won't be sorry about it:)  It is quality stuff.  And they are not paying me to say that either.  They don't even know my blog exists!


I used to put this in my coffee every morning.  It is yummy.  But then I discovered that it is not cream.  No dairy whatsoever.  It is oil.  Insert facemaking.  Yuck.  I was putting flavored oil in my coffee??  Not only that but my girls were using it too and they used more 'cream' than coffee!

So I started using real cream and sugar.  Because it's what I had on hand when my 'Italian Sweet Cream' was gone. (yes I used up the bottle I had)

When the heavy cream got all I started buying 1/2 and 1/2.  It's cheaper and really almost tastes better in coffee!  Of course I would never turn down heavy cream:)

Then one day I tried this.  Pure Maple Syrup.  Viola!!  Deliciousness!  I don't care for Maple Syrup as the main sweetener in most things.  If you want dessert it needs real sugar:)  But for coffee I like the maple syrup better than sugar.  It tastes better and it takes way less to sweeten it.  Plus it's supposed to be better for you than all that processed sugar.  But I'm not here to argue about using or not using sugar.  I use it.  It makes things taste good:)

And when I was searching for all these pics I put in this post I ran across this.  Supposedly it has only 4 ingredients in it and they are as follows:  nonfat milk, heavy cream, sugar and natural flavor.
I may just have to give this a try:) 

Do you drink coffee?
