I can't believe it's already the last week of July. I feel like August is going to fly by fast. I love summertime and I'll enjoy it by going to the beach, gardening, summer reading, and BBQs.
I thought it would be fun to do a This or That Coffee or Tea?
I am a coffee lover through and through!
I LOVE COFFEE!
I love coffee art.
I love hot coffee with cream, no sugar.
I love making hot espresso in our Nespresso coffee machine.
I sometimes order a single hot espresso after we have dinner out at a restaurant.
I enjoy making at home iced coffee during the summer months. I make a large pot of hot coffee and when it cools off I pour the coffee into a large mason jar. I add oat milk with no sugar. I like having this for an afternoon pick-me-up.
If I want to change things up I enjoy making my own Iced Shaken Espresso.
I tried making coffee art.
Coffee or Tea? Which do you choose? Leave your answer in the comments section.

Hello friends, I'm so happy to be joining Stephanie at The Enchanting Rose for her 9th annual Tea Cup and Mug Exchange.

This is my fifth Tea Cup and Mug Exchange that I have had the pleasure of participating in. It's always fun to receive a fun tea cup or mug with assorted goodies and to make new blog friends.
I was assigned to send my package of goodies off to Susan who lives in Virgina. Susan has a blog called Culinary Envy where she shares all of her wonderful recipes. I hope to sometime make a few of her fun recipes.
I'd love to show you the awesome package of goodies I received in the mail from Lynda, who was assigned to me. When I opened the box, Lynda had all of the contents wrapped up so nice in all different colored tissue paper.
I was gifted with coffee, tea, cookies, and a pretty tea mug.
Look at the pretty tea mug, it was made in Portugal.
Thanks Lynda for the beautiful tea mug! I really enjoyed drinking the flavored hazel nut coffee from Dunkin Donuts, the tea, and the chocolate chunk cookies tasted so good. :)

Thanks everyone and enjoy!

I'm happy to say that Stephanie from The Enchanting Rose has hosted another lovely tea cup and mug exchange.
This is my third tea mug exchange that I have participated in. I had fun picking out a tea mug and goodies for the person that I was assigned to send my package to. I was assigned to send my package to Gabriele and she wrote me a nice letter saying that she liked everything.
My tea mug came in the mail from Annamarie and I just love this tea mug with a cute spoon attached to the cup! I am so amazed and happy with everything I received!
Here is the pretty tea mug with spoon and a handmade crocheted tea rug. I just love turquoise and it's my favorite color. This tea mug has colorful flowers all over the mug and will make me happy when I'm drinking out of it.
Look what else is here, two pieces of chocolate, a package of Caramel Apple coffee, a packet to make Apple Cider and a pretty towel that says Faith on it.
I am going to love making a cup of Orange & Cinnamon Spice Tea and dunking it with the biscotti.

I recently joined my friend Stephanie at her blog The Enchanting Rose for a tea mug exchange. I really had fun picking out the tea mug and other goodies for the person I was assigned to send my package to.
Here is what arrived in the mail for me from the mug exchange.
A very pretty tea mug which matches my kitchen just perfect and Organic Black Chai tea leaves.
This is what the inside of the box looked like when I opened it up.
Packed inside the box was tea, a tea mug and yarn.
This pretty shade of dark purple Alpaca yarn was included in the package and I will love creating something new with this yarn.
I really love this light green box with the pretty flowers on it that the tea mug came in.
I also received a pretty card with a note for me.
What I love about this tea mug is that it is microwave safe and dishwasher safe.

My gifts arrived from Melinda who has a lovely blog called Melinda Blogs. Thank you Melinda so much for the beautiful tea mug, organic black chai tea leaves and the yarn. I love how you even took the time and stopped by my blog to see that I enjoy knitting and included yarn in the package. I will love drinking tea and coffee in my new mug and knitting with the pretty yarn.
To see the rest of the tea cup exchange, please stop by to visit Stephanie at The Enchanting Rose. Thank you Stephanie for hosting this fun tea mug exchange and to my new blog friend Sandra at Ravenhill Cottage who I sent my package to.
Thanks again Melinda for such a lovely package and I have already started using the tea/coffee mug and love it. One afternoon soon I will make my new tea and decide on a new project for my yarn.
Have a wonderful weekend everyone.

I recently joined my friend Stephanie and her blog The Enchanting Rose for a teacup exchange that she hosted. This was the first time that I have joined a teacup exchange and it was so much fun. I enjoyed picking out the goodies that I was going to send to the person that I was assigned to by Stephanie.
Here is what I received from the person assigned to me!
My gifts arrived in the mail from Kati at Kati's Little Corner of the World. It included a tea mug with a Bible verse on the mug, two chocolate covered cookies and 3 lollipops for tea and a pretty card.
Thanks everyone and enjoy.

How would you like to have a large glass of sun tea? Well, if you have a large jug like the one I have then you can make this Sun Tea. It is so refreshing to drink on a hot summer day. I used a cute mason jar and sliced up lemons to add and a bright pink straw.
This is the jug that I used and I just set it in the sun in my yard. I used 5 tea bags and when the tea looks dark after a few hours just bring it inside, take out the tea bags and there you have your Sun Tea. It is so good that you don't need to add any sugar.
Thanks everyone and enjoy.

How about making Sun Tea for a cool refreshing drink this summer?
