Tully's Bellaccino Cinnamon Stick Coffee

2011-01-05T06:30:00.001-05:00

I am really anticipating drinking my first cup of Tully's Coffee Bellaccino Cinnamon Stick coffee! It will be available on Amazon in k-cup form soon. I've signed up to be notified as soon as it is open for ordering and you can, too. I haven't found many coffees that have a good cinnamon taste to them which has been a bit of a disappointment for me. From the reviews that I have read Tully's has

Coffee Mug Gift Idea For Any Occassion

2010-12-08T07:05:00.001-05:00

For those of us who are fans of the delightful beverage of coffee, we generally have our favorite coffee mugs. Receiving a new mug as a gift for our birthday, Mothers Day, Fathers Day, or even at Christmas or Hanukkah are always appreciated. Coffee mugs are generally not very expensive. When giving a gift of a mug, it can be a stand alone or you can fill it with little treats like fudge or even a

Winter And Holiday Flavored Coffees

2010-12-02T07:00:00.002-05:00

As the holiday season is upon us we can enjoy special flavored coffees with specific flavors for this time of year. There are a few flavored coffees that we enjoy in our home this time of year. Candy canes are a favorite of ours so having Van Houtte Candy Cane K-Cups near the coffee machine has become a tradition in our kitchen. If you enjoy vanilla and caramel flavors then you might like

Coffee And Chocolate A Winning Combination

2010-07-23T10:07:00.001-04:00

Two flavors that are a winning combination for me are coffee and chocolate. Not just regular old coffee or plain old chocolate but the good stuff. Now let me tell you, I've tried many a blend of coffee that was supposed to have a chocolate flavor but found them lacking. There wasn't a good chocolate body to any of them. In fact most of the time, I couldn't taste any chocolate at all. Not until I

Mystery In The Coffee House

2010-07-16T09:00:00.000-04:00

I did promise that I would talk about all things Coffee on this blog and today I'm going to talk about a connection with coffee and my other favorite thing reading murder mysteries. A series of mysteries involving a Coffee House and of course our favorite brew coffee has been created by author Cleo Coyle and I'm hooked. Coyle started this mystery series back in 2003 with the first book On What

The Art Of Coffee Harvest

2010-07-09T06:30:00.001-04:00

As much as I love drinking coffee, I love the art that I find with a coffee theme.I'm particularly fond of the print featured below showing indigenous mountain folk picking the coffee cherry off of the trees during the harvest time. It is inside this red little pod that turns the color of a cherry that the beans are found. The coffee cherry will be glossy and firm when it is time to be picked.

What are the Coffee Pods I've been hearing about?

2010-07-02T06:30:00.001-04:00

I had a friend ask me about the difference between a coffee pod and a k-cup so I thought a post would help explain this to both her and my other readers. A coffee pod is basically ground coffee packaged between two layers of coffee filters. They look like this: There are a multitude of companies who are now making these coffee pods to be used in different types of single serve coffee brewers.

Caribou Coffee Daybreak Morning Blend

2010-06-25T06:30:00.001-04:00

My favorite cup of coffee in the morning is the Caribou Daybreak Morning Blend. I love the citrus tones that balance nicely with the mellow nutty undertones added to the delicate floral notes of this coffee in the morning. I keep a couple of boxes of k-cups for my Keurig Brewing System as a standard in my pantry. Even my husband who generally doesn't like the lighter roasts prefers the Daybreak

Keurig Coffee Brewing System

2010-06-24T06:30:00.001-04:00

Until my husband and I switched over to the Keurig Coffee Brewing System, we made our coffee like many do with a 12 cup coffee maker. We usually made a half pot in the morning, each of us drank one cup and poured out the rest before we left for work. Now that just seems so very wasteful. Rarely did we ever make another pot of coffee when we came home. What I love about my Keurig Single Serve

Morning Coffee Art

2010-06-23T06:00:00.002-04:00

The inspiration for my change of focus on this blog came from a lady that admire very much. Her "Morning Coffee" art that can be applied to coffee cups, invitations, posters, cards, and tee shirts woke me up just like the caffeine from my favorite brew would. I know that probably doesn't make a lot of sense but the way my mind works doesn't make a lot of sense to most people. Love My Morning

Coffee Anyone?

2010-06-22T15:16:00.000-04:00

Bevs Coffee Break started out as a blog where I was talking about just about everything other than coffee. So today, I'm changing the cup I've been drinking out of and starting over with a new method of using my break. Instead of talking about all sorts of things, the blog will now focus on something I have a passion for....coffee and all that goes with it. From this day forward I'll be sharing

New Free Articles Directory Has Launched

2010-06-08T11:58:00.000-04:00

Some of you are probably familiar with an article directory, sometimes referred to as an articles site and some of you may not know what I'm referring to. According to Wikipedia: "Article directories are websites where users submit unique articles to be categorized and included to a specific niche. Well-written content articles released for free distribution have the potential of increasing the

The group gives advice on researching keywords and keyword phrases to use within the content of your lens for better search engine

Thinking about Christmas?

2009-11-14T08:29:00.000-05:00

I think most people have at least started to think about Christmas already. With the state of the economy many of us are looking at paring down our list of people to buy gifts for. Perhaps our list can't be shortened any further but the amount of money avaialable to spend for each gift has dwindled much lower this year. I think this is on everyone's mind right now. I ran across a lens today that

Fall in Indiana

2009-10-02T07:51:00.000-04:00

Indiana in the fall is just so delightful to witness. The lovely colors of the trees just looks like an artist visited overnight and painted a breathtaking picture for the world to enjoy. I recently wrote an article that tells of a few of my favorite spots to visit during the autumn season here in Indiana and thought I would share it with my readers today. Fall Festivals In Indiana

Looking for a place to promote your website or blog posts?

2009-09-23T22:19:00.000-04:00

One of the things that all of us need to do for our website, our blog, our hubpages, or Squidoo lenses is to get the word out about them. Help people to find out about what we have to say or what we have to sell. The internet is not one of those places where the addage "If you build it - they will come" works. Promoting yourself and your ideas is a task that we all need to do. I can recommend

Promoting Business On The Internet

2009-09-15T13:22:00.000-04:00

If you have a small business today, you probably know that you need to have an online presence of some sort. Many owners of businesses just don't know where to start. The internet is so massive and creating something that will get you noticed can be daunting to say the least. One lady in Rock Hill, SC has decided to give her local businesses a boost by opening a business of her own to help

Poverty In America

2009-09-08T09:35:00.002-04:00

America is supposed to be one of the richest countries in the world, if not the richest. Yet poverty in the United States is growing by leaps and bounds. Tom Stone created a photo essay on the homeless in our country that is so moving, so heartbreaking, and unfortunately a reality that we should all be thinking about.A dear friend of mine has written a piece honoring Tom's work and also calling

New Mens Group On The Internet

2009-09-04T19:10:00.003-04:00

There is a new group for men on the internet that I would like for my readers to know about. It is called Factor Y and was started by a friend of mine Alex Crabtree. Alex is also a fellow lensmaster on Squidoo and is known there as Drifter0658. Alex and I met last Spring while we were both trying to obtain our Giant Squid status. He is an incredibly fine writer and very witty.To better inform

Social Services many times drop the ball!

2009-08-09T17:55:00.002-04:00

Many times, and I'd venture to say more than not, our Social Service Network really drops the ball when it comes to helping people in need. Now, I understand, the job is gruesome. A case worker usually has more work than they can physically handle. It is still no excuse for putting off helping someone when they have called your attention to it. It is no excuse for leaving paperwork that has a
