PICNIC W/ THE PUPS

Why am I barely getting to posting the images from this awesome late morning picnic on my lawn? I decided to do something different and soak in some morning sun, enjoy my favorite coffee, Starbucks and snack on granola.  If you have seen my recent videos then you know that I can not do anything at home without my assistants Coco & Carter accompanying me and taking the perfection out of the plans.  I love these guys so much, they keep me grounded LOL!

POUR IT OVER

My love for Starbucks coffee is chronic, in late evenings I look forward to the morning time in which I can make myself another cup.  I've been using the Classic Pour-Over brewing method from Starbucks for the past month and I find myself grabbing for this over the French Press as of late. 

The Classic Pour-Over sits directly on top of the cup that you plan on enjoying your coffee from

Using a #2 coffee filter, add your coffee.  

Side Note: 
I recently purchased a coffee grinder and it has taken my coffee to another level.  Trust me, the little things really do count in creating the perfect cup. 

After using the Classic Pour-Over a few times to get taste that I desire I found that when I grind the coffee really fine it creates the best flavor.  Simply amazing and I look forward to it every single morning.

What is your favorite blend?

Summer Gardening with Bottled Starbucks® Iced Coffee #StarbucksIcedCoffee

Summer is here and one of my new found loves has been plants and gardening.  I like to dedicate a portion of my day to get my hands into some soil and harvest!  I began helping my grandmother with her new garden a few months back and have found myself slowly taking over.

CREPE BAR

This morning Rob and I grabbed breakfast at Crepe Bar in Tempe, it was the first visit for both of us and we were 100% pleased.  The initial arrival was welcoming, it really gave off that downtown vibe which I really love.  The small menu made it easy to make a selection, we both had a breakfast burro crepe.  I had a Vanilla latte, he enjoyed a caramel latte that he added even more sweetener to LOL thats my Rob!  We snacked on some complimentary granola while we waited on our meal, it came out within about 10 minutes, it was amazing! I am big on presentation, the bacon added the perfect touch without feeling heavy. After we'd finished eating our main dish we had a complimentary dessert, I'm not certain what type of cookie it was-- it was delicious nonetheless, everything was RICH.  If you happen to be in the Tempe, AZ. area stop by 7520 S.
