Hi Everyone,

You can still enjoy those tasty coffee drinks from Starbucks and Dunkin Donuts without spending a fortune every week. Start making your tasty treats at home, and watch the savings add up.

Mocha
Stir a spoonful of mini chocolate chips and a few tablespoons of half-and-half into a mug of hot coffee until melted and blended.

Caramel
Stir caramel sundae sauce to taste into a mug of hot coffee until blended. Add a drop of vanilla extract and top with whipped cream. Yum Yum Yum!

Rocky Road
Blend hot coffee with instant hot cocoa mix and a splash of heavy cream. Serve topped with mini marshmallows and a sprinkling of finely chopped walnuts. Delicious, oh yeah!

Is your body ready for the beach? Minimal effort and big
results equal a happier, slimmer you





Hint 1:

Shower curtains can be renovated by being washed, on gentle cycle, with a pint of white vinegar.


Hint 2: I always find it difficult cleaning my blender after
I've used it. I'm trying this next hint next time I make
a protein shake or a smoothie.

Clean your blender by filling it halfway with water, just a
drop of dish soap and 1 Tbs. baking soda. Put the lid on and press blend. The baking soda will deodorize as it breaks down food particles. Your blender should be sparkling clean in no time.
