DEAR COFFEE:

I think I must be really craving caffeine this morning (and thinking about My  Dear Coffee posts from a while ago), because I decided to write this letter to my trusty friend, coffee.Dear Coffee…It’s been a while since I have posted about coffee on here, but by now you should know that I really love you. LOL, so I really do think about you a lot. But today I want to chat about how I have a whole latte love for your cousin, the latte…See, coffee, I really love you but I’m also super into lattes right now. They’re made with a shot of espresso (or two or three if you are really needing a boost!) and steamed milk, which is foamy and delicious. Lately I’ve seen so many different latte options at coffee places around White Rock and I’m interested to try them. You can get a latte with whole milk, nonfat milk, soy milk, almond milk, and even coconut milk at some places. And on top of that, there are tons of flavors out there like vanilla, chocolate, hazelnut, and many more. So basically there are so many ways to customize your latte.Anyways, coffee, I don’t want you to think I don’t love you still—I do! I’m just having a bit of a latte moment. But you will always be my first true love :)xoxo,Sharlene (and all my latte lovers out there!)Soooo basically this morning is off to a great start. LOL!What’s your favorite coffee drink of all time?Share your silly thoughts and letters in the comments below!xoxoSharlene

Dear Coffee...

More than any other day of the week, it tends to be Monday and Friday mornings that you need a cup of coffee most. For coffee lovers, nothing else really compares. That’s why this Friday morning, I wanted to take the time to thank coffee. There is perhaps no greater source of motivation on those tired, sleepy mornings at the end of the week than a simple cup of just that. Especially since Friday is my only Morning shift of the entire week. So, without further ado, a thank-you letter to coffee:


Dear Coffee,

It's mornings like this that make me appreciate how wonderful you truly are. I am so glad you were brought to this earth as a tiny bean so that we can brew you and enjoy you.

I prefer you with two teaspoons of sugar and a tiny bit of milk. But some people prefer you iced. And some people prefer you with cream. Some people even prefer you with nothing at all, a great testimony to how perfect you really are.

I just wanted you to know… because sometimes, there is nothing better on a tiresome morning than a good ole cup of joe.
xoxo,
Sharlene (+ the rest of the world!)

I Need Some Coffee Loving...

I never thought I’d say this, but I am really loving coffee these days. I just started drinking it randomly a while back and now I probably have a cup every morning. I even find myself craving the taste when I wake up and now I have a cup pretty much every morning.

 I guess you could say my coffee habit was inevitable considering my mother has one of those super easy to use kettle thing. Since it's is so simple, I haven’t had to learn how to make coffee the traditional way. I just buy the little coffee cans, pop some in my cute little Disney mugs and voila—I have a deliciously yummy cup of hot coffee. I like French Vanilla coffee mix that you can buy from Tim hortens or I like nestle coffee powder with some French vanilla flavoured syrup and a splash of milk.

When I’m craving something a little sweeter I use almond milk since it definitely gives it a nice warm nutty flavor. I also add in some sugar too, which add a tad of sweetness as well. But if I'm making the coffee then I make it pretty darn strong. I really like the almond milk and FV syrup combination because it makes me feel like I’m drinking a super sugary, Starbucks-like drink that’s actually a lot more healthier than it tastes. Recently, I’ve dabbled into iced coffee when I’m out and about with friends, but I’m still not hooked on them yet. Usually I only drink them when my friends get one… Maybe it will catch on soon? Do you drink iced coffee? If so, any suggestions for me?

I used to live Timmies Iced caps and now I prefer the Regular McDonalds Iced Coffee's!

Let me Explain

I have an account on goodreads.com

It is where I review books and this site gives me the option to post the same review on my blog

I will always review a good book. Because how can I review a book I didn't like, that doesn't make much sense.

If I dont like it, I just put it down and never read it again, right?

So these reviews are for those that like to read and are curious about what I like to read.

If you read my review and like the sound of a book, well then that's what they're there for.

Hopefully I can turn some non-readers into readers!!

YUM

I've been surviving off of burgers and hot chocolate (not together) for a week. By.... choice.
By the way, I make the best Hot Chocolate in the world and I shamelessly brag about it.

my secret?? This bad ass right here:
