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.

Flying high // travel

B Time to Fly Sumer holidays are around the corner and deciding where to go or what to pack can e daunting experience. So what to pack ? Well after reading how some airlines charge passenger to check the baggage. First I believe the budget airlines started , but now the big name ones have also started to charge it!

Truthfully people need to tell these companies NO . Even a handbag is next to the list. They are making BILLIONS from from these extra fees!...

THIS and THAT//fashion , festival

Season Changes Well it has finally cooled down which makes it bearable to be outside. Naturally the swimming pools , lakes and rivers have seen plenty o people . Festivals , Films and Fashion The festival season is winding down, but one that I anxiously wait for is the Venice Film festival. A movie and fashion lover can’t miss it! The return of Clooney on screen in Venice with his gorgeous wife is a highlight. Her fabulous fuchsia gown with the train was stunning . She stole the show! Of course there were other stars on the red carpet but no outstanding dresses . Movies some are getting mentioned . For myself I’m not sure what I be tempted to watch. Julia Roberts new one about college professor sexual harassment is a serious topic . Not light entertainment.
