The first sip of coffee in the morning is heaven
Hi guys! Since coffee makes my mornings so awesome, every day, I thought I should share with you this feeling. So lets star with the beginning. I wake up… Usually, after I wake up, the first thing that I drink is coffee. Real, simple, dark black coffee. And the moment this beverage touches my tongue, there is this immediate feeling of heaven. If the coffee is good quality and if the brewing was done correctly, the final taste should be, as I said, heaven! I use a french press to brew my simple coffee and nothing more. I don’t add sugar, nor milk or chocolate. The most important part in…

REVIEW: Bundaberg non-alcoholic ginger beer
A friend brought me a Bundaberg non-alcoholic ginger beer cute little bottle with a funny kangaroo on it. I usually drink Clausthaler unfiltered non-alcoholic beer. I didn’t know about Bundaberg beer, but since I like alcohol free beers, I was eager to try this one too. It is an australian beer and I love its kangaroo logo. I was afraid it would be too spicy, but in fact it has a very subtle ginger taste. It tastes a little bit like a lemonade. It should be very refreshing in summer. Although I like its subtle, fresh taste, it was a little bit too sweet for me, but all in all I liked…

Community Fridge – Food sharing & a really great idea!
I got very excited to find out about a great food sharing project that takes place right now in Glasgow, initiated by Strath Foodsharing Group (see here their Facebook Page). There is a community fridge, placed inside a building, where anyone can fill it up with food and anyone can take food. The people behind this get help also from local stores and other non-profit organisations (Community Arts Centre The Space, Garnethill Multicultural Centre and the Foodsharing Network), who bring them almost out of date food, so that it won’t land into the trash can. I truly believe this is a great idea and I think it would do wonders if…

One of the best snacks I’ve ever eaten: Whaou! Crepes
When I visited France, a friend gave me a delicious snack. The brand is Whaou! (unfortunately the website is only in french) and the snack is a crepe (it is similar to a pancake, but much better in my opinion). Whaou! has many types of crepes, but the ones I’ve eaten were Cracky Crepes Chocolat et Cereals. Hmmm… and now about the taste… It is just perfect! The chocolate is not very “milky” and doesn’t leave that milky aftertaste some chocolates do (which I hate). It is not too dark either, it is just the way I like it. Inside the crepe, mixed with the chocolate are some really crispy little…

Comparison between Sonnentor BIO and Twinings ginger tea
I drink tea daily and a lot of it is Twinings. I don’t think this is the best tea in the world, but I know that most of their mixes will be on my taste, so I just buy their tea from convenience. Everyone knows the benefits of fresh ginger and also ginger tea. People use to drink ginger tea when they have a cold, but I like to drink it all the time. First time I tried to make ginger tea by grating some fresh ginger and infusing it in hot water. Unfortunately, for me this was undrinkable. It was just way too intense and too spicy. I tried…

REVIEW: Mixed feelings about Ferrero ValParaiso Chocolate
This week I tried 3 different types of Ferrero ValParaiso Chocolate. I usually like Ferrero products and I kind of expected these ones to be tasty. I was happy to find these little packages because I’ve seen the big ones before but I didn’t want to buy them since I didn’t know which flavor to choose and if I would like them. What I liked The good thing about these chocolates is that the chocolate itself is good quality. Also, I like the fact that the filling is 99% fruit. Another good thing is that they are not extremely sweet. What I didn’t like What I didn’t like was that there was…

My favorite non-alcoholic beer: Clausthaler unfiltered
I really like non-alcoholic beer: it is refreshing in summer, nourishing in winter and have tons of health benefits. Unfortunately, I had hard times trying to find a non-alcoholic beer to match my taste. I am not a gourmet expert and I don’t know how to express the things that I don’t like in a regular non-alcoholic beer. It lacks something, it has too much of something else, its consistency is strange, my tongue would feel odd… Does this make any sense? A certain period of time I’ve drunk radlers (half beer, half lemon juice – or some other juice) but I didn’t like them very much because: 1. They did contain…

Cutest Guacamole Recipe [Not Really a Recipe]
Have you ever wondered how guacamole is made? Is there any “recipe” for guacamole? Where does it come from? What’s its origin? Well, I did wonder and this was the answer: In Mexico there is this tiny animal and his name is Cucaracha. This animal, although its name could be translated into English as “Cockroach”, doesn’t in fact have nothing to do with the insect. Cucaracha is a cute little animal, a little bit furry, who wears a big mexican hat. He is very friendly and brave. He always has a gun and he defends Mexico when needed. The girls are crazy about him. No one has succeeded in photographing Cucaracha. He…
