COFFEE or TEA?// Lifestyle

The MORNINGS DELIGHT

What is the first thing you have in the morning a cup of tea or coffee?

Tea or coffee , both are popular and the drink of choice for many people.

I only lately started to drink coffee with flavoured creamer, French Vanilla or Hazelnut flavour.

Tea, I will drink more when I am not feeling well with lemon.

Recently I was reading an article about tea and how some brands have plastic in the teabags.

Who knew or would think there be plastic in TEABAGS.

There is one brand that mentions on the packaging it contains no PLASTIC.

A test was done to see which teabags contains plastic, surprising most did.

COFFEE , good for you?

Coffee, the smell of a pot of cooking in the morning is devine. I like to have a cup with my favourite flavour. Its really a nice treat, something to savour and sip slowly in the mornings.

It also is a kickstarter for the day from the caffeine.

There are also health benefits to a cup of coffee. A study shows 3 cups a day are beneficial reducing the chance of heart attacks or cancers.

A mug of coffee contains 140mg of caffeine , tea has much less. according to study.

(3 cups of coffee)

So what are the benefits? I found this article very interesting, a study done over several years,

the shows the benefits of coffee, and the risks for certain people, pregnant women for one or women who are prone to fractures.

Doing Denim I sometimes like to wear something that is just more relaxed and comfortable. For some it might be a pair of shorts, but I like a dress. Whether long or short. I just them more comfortable and airy on hot summer days. Denim is one look I like . It’s a casual look that can be dressed up or down, just by changing the accessories you wear with it. Heels or sandal. Simple jewelry, watch or bracelets. There are so many ways to style a denim dress. A great tote to carry the necessary items, sandals and sunglasses I would add a nice colorful scarf for the hair or simply wear tied around the neck.

Favorite Things 2023//fashion , items

Favorite things I really didn’t go overboard with any purchases in 2023. Trying to keep to the sustainable fashion idea of shopping my closet or using what I have . Mind you there were somethings I thought about getting like a new pair of sunglasses, some shoes sandals, new purse , but I still need new sunglasses. My old pair has some scratches on them sadly. The two pieces I did get I absolutely love . Firstly a linen blend blazer in cream shade. It goes with so many things so can’t wait to spring to wear it again. Also the new wrap dress I bought in spring. The color I loved , the fit and style is nice to wear for dinners out, parties or weddings. A very versatile piece. The other item was from a previous year but I had forgotten about it was a nice surprise. I wore it over Christmas holidays. and got compliments on it . A knit top with sparkle accents. It was so comfortable and warm . Absolutely loved it. ...
