Top 10 Things Coffee Is Better Than
I love when coffee is better than… better than whatever. It is pretty much better than anything, isn’t it? Well, if you love coffee it IS better than….
Here is my Top 10 list of things I think coffee is better than. Got one? Leave it in the message area and I’ll include it in the next coffee is better than entry. 
Remember now… it is my personal list. You must post your own if you have the time. Be original!
1. (not meaning #1 but #10 just in the #1 position, you know? #10 is actually #1 counting up is counting down )
Coffee is better than having your toe under a rocking chair when Aunt (350 lb.) Irene is sitting in it.
2.
Coffee is better than cheap whiskey and some good whiskey.
3.
Coffee is better than most people. Really! Better than my neighbor down the road.
4.
Coffee is better than bedtime.
5.
Coffee is better than nodoze. Plus, you can chew it up without additional water.
6.
Coffee is better than most men. It doesn’t complain when I stay up and it goes to bed. :/ It doesn’t tell me to turn off the computer. It doesn’t make me throw up. It doesn’t mind if I leave the coffee pot on too long. And it doesn’t wear stripes.
7.
Coffee is better than doughnuts but doesn’t mind hanging out with them from time to time.
8.
Coffee is better than tea
9.
Coffee is better than bras. Big cup, small cup, different sized cups, it doesn’t care!

Coffee is better than hubby. It can be hot when it’s cold, cold when it’s hot, and everywhere in between.
Got one? Please DO post it. Have a good evening friends. Have a cup and think about…. well, anyone but Howard Dean.
Coffee and Chocolate Mix Soaps!
Well, I’ve used chocolate shampoo and chocolate soap but this was my first for coffee soap. Don’t taste it! It is bad! Just kidding. I didn’t taste it but I certainly did shower with it and have it by my sink for hand washing too.
Daisycake Soaps sent me a few to try and a lip balm that is coffee flavored as well.
The soaps produced a good lather and left my hands feeling clean and fresh. The scent is quite close to that of coffee with chocolate and the Turkish Mocha Soap was just a yummy. I would purchase them even if I had not got them free for review. I like em!
The lip balm had a good taste and went on with a silk appeal. However, I did not feel it had enough staying power. Maybe it wasn’t suppose to have. I still liked it though.
I recommend trying the soaps. They are reasonable in price $2.75 and they last an acceptable amount of time.
Joe’s Coffee Collars :: Protect Your Hands from Hot Coffee Burns
Joe’s Coffee Collars is one of the best ideas I’ve seen in a while. Though my photo leaves something to be desired, the little insulated cup hugger does not.
They come in assorted colors and designs (though I am not sure you can get this particular one now) and fit a cup ranging from small to large. Your standard tall, Grande, and Venti Starbuck’s models. Such names for cup sizes!
Anyway, these nifty, re-usable, insulated cup sleeves are made in Alaska and are state of the art insulate that keeps a beverage warmer, longer than neoprene. I can honestly testify to that. I love them!
They are trendy, attractive, and make a great conversation item. I would agree that these are enviromental safe since they are re-usable time after time. They do hold their shape.
Stop by Joe’s and give them a peak. They are reasonable at $5.99 each with free shipping in the U.S. You can also buy wholesale. I’ll bet you love them too!

Entry for “Fill in the Blank” $50 Blog Contest
Over at the great blog, Blogging with Cents they are having a really neat contest for a chance to win $50 payable through PayPal. It is a fill in the blank contest and I thought it would be a lot of fun. So…. Here is my entry:
It happened just about a month ago in Joe’s Big Double D Coffee Cup Cafe. I was just starting to sip on my One Size Fits All cup of coffee when I realized my cup was leaking on my shirt and could be seen. You have probably had that experience before. I felt embarrassed and obvious, and I knew that soon I would have to come up with some sort of explanation since I obviously was not pregnant. I was a little worried about that man standing behind me though. But then, all of the sudden, I saw the man’s hand coming right towards me!! I remembered what a cowboy’s wife had told me. It was very important to always hold your cup at arms distance and never spring a leak if you can avoid it. Before I knew it, I was given the tools and tips to coffee drinking for dummies by the man standing behind me. So you see, I really was at the right place at the right time, and I decided I just had to throw the rest of my coffee on the man who was standing behind me.
The End.
Thank you for the Contest! I hope I made you smile.
Coffee ID Card
Just a little something… look at the coffee id card I made. 
Cute, huh?
Great Tee Shirts from Going Postal T-Shirts
I got a neat t-shirt to review from
| Going Postal T-Shirts |
This t-shirt is not too heavy yet not too thin either. (100% pre-shrunk cotton tee shirts) It is soft and doesn’t itch at all. I’ve found that often this is the case with new t-shirts. Since it is pre-shrunk, I suppose that took away any issues I’d have with scratchiness or stiffness.
The company did an awesome job on the decal placement. Smooth and without any wrinkles or bubbles. Just perfect.
The website has very unique t’s and personally, there are many, if not most, that I’ve never seen before. Nothing typical, but fresh and different.
There are your standard size t-shirts (which is what I got) but they also have the women’s fitted t’s plus children and toddler sizes! I think David has all the bases covered here. Nice job.
What a variety he has well. There are cat t’s, coffee t’s (my fave), stamp t’s … these are awesome, butterfly t’s, Christmas t’s…… and on and on… you must take a look for yourself. there are about 59 categories! There really is a lot to see on David’s site.
Interesting: Read about t-shirt history and the fun t-shirt faq’s included. Humorous!
Even though I got my shirt gratis, which would make the good service even more evident, shipping was VERY quick and communication is spot on and most friendly. I am impressed with the effort taken to get the tee I wanted and as quick as it arrived.
Go by and visit Going Postal T-Shirts. Explore and take your time looking around. I’m sure you will find something that you’ll just have to have.
Note: photo with t-shirt was taken with my son wearing it. I cut his head off simply because he said, Mom! don’t put my head in!…. he was having a very bad hair day plus I woke him up to take the photo. Poor little guy.
Shock Coffee :: a shocking coffee review
Shock Coffee Website and Store
Holy Coffee Shock Batman! Have you tried this SHOCK COFFEE? It’s Hyper-Caffeinated Coffee & Drinks with Shock-A-Lots candies.
I went to the door and there stood the UPS man holding a plain brown sack colored box. I wondered what it could be. hmmm…
I brought it in and set it on my newly cleaned kitchen tile (rare instance) and got my box knife out. I zipped down one side and then the other. I slashed the center tape that secured the flaps shut. Bubble wrap!! yay! Oh wait, there is something else in there. COFFEE!!! Oh boy! My favorite thing in the world. It was my promo-sample box from Shock Coffee. Thanks guys 
I wanted to brew a pot right away but had already consumed 2 pots and it was only 10:30 am. I was starting to feel a bit sick to my stomach. I’ll wait until this evening. So I did.
7:00 pm rolled around and I had finally worked off all my morning brew and I was ready for my after dinner pot of coffee. I opened a bag of Shock Coffee and wow! It had such a freshly ground aroma. I stood sniffing that for a bit then I put myself 6 scoops in my brew basket. I like my coffee a bit on the bold side.
I really enjoyed the coffee house scent as the black gold quickly ran through the brew cycle. I got my giant latte mug out and filled it to the brim. I sipped and ahhh… what a fabulous taste this has, I told my son who was sporting the new Shock Coffee ball cap that came in the box of goodies. He muttered, yeah, it smells good, mom.
Well, I finished that cup and poured another. I sat down to watch a DVD and suddenly realized my eyes felt like they were the size of coffee saucers. OMG! I jumped up and ran to look in the mirror and I found that I appeared to look normal. But no, something was wrong. I was totally alert. It was as if I had just started the day. I felt like doing something. To make a long story a bit shorter, I was up until 4:30 am and had a sparkling home to show for it. What a buzz!
Keep reading to the next page…. it’s my review on all the other do-dads that I got in my surprise box….
