Earth Day Promo

We had some old friends over on the weekend, it was our first barbecue of the season. It was cold but sunny. How their kids have grown. Their twins will start university in the fall, their third child is in grade 9. But the empty nest is looming. Son K had fun playing tennis with their son. They brought a lovely chocolate mousse over for dessert that went perfectly with some strawberries I served.

It was Earth Day April 22. Starbucks was having an Earth Day promo, free coffee if you brought your own reusable mug. So I participated!  Awful to say, but I much prefer Panera Bread's coffee.  The light roast flavour I like is a blend of Costa Rican, Guatemalan, and Brazilian coffee.  They also filter the water very finely.  What's your favourite coffee if you drink coffee?

  1. I like my coffee strong, with a dollop of milk foam on it! Good idea to take your own cups! Valerie

  2. It's lovely to have a dinner party at home.
    I prefer Roy's Kona Blend coffee with a dash of skim milk.

  3. I've not had Panera coffee before but would give it a go. We got a gift card from there but haven't been strong enough to walk in yet. Soon though.

  4. I haven't tried Panera coffee, I do enjoy Starbucks on occasion, but my favorite is a little coffee shop by the market... They have at least one other location, but they're California based.

  6. I used to really dislike Starbucks original blend, but when we moved to a dark roast for the house it started growing on me. However, I'd still rather have their blonde roast.
