Goes With Coffee. . .

-



Okay, so I recently decided to "expand" my blog to include other edibles that go well with coffee. And what goes better with coffee than chocolate?

I used to work with a guy who was from the Midwest. And while he loved California, he really missed his favorite chocolates - Wilbur Buds (TM). So, his mom used to send him cases of semi-sweet Wilbur buds which he kept in the cutest "Dilbert"TM candy jar and generously shared with his co-workers.

So, guess what the mailman brought me today? My "goodie bag" from the Wilbur Candy Company.

I had almost forgotten just how good this chocolate tastes. . .my sample pack included, Wilbur Buds (both milk and semi-sweet), a semi-sweet chocolate bar and the most amazing chocolate marshmallows I've ever tasted! When we were kids, my sister's favorite candy bar was "Rocky Road." (TM)

Well, these marshmallows are like Rocky Road on steroids!!

I swear before I could even sit down to write this review, I had eaten all the marshmallows (with the help of my dear daughter). The marshmallows are hand-made in their candy store in Lititz, Pennsylvania.

I don't think that my opinion could actually do this chocolate justice. I suggest that you visit their website and discover for yourself just what really good chocolate Wilbur makes.

I have a material connection to Wilbur® chocolate because I received a complimentary sample of a product for consideration in preparing to write this content.

It's Not Your Mother's Eight O'Clock Coffee - Columbia Single Serve Cup

You may not have noticed, but Eight O'Clock Coffee (which I used to refer to as Eight O'Clock Bean Coffee) has experienced a new attitude. There's new packaging and now there is even an Eight O'Clock K-Cup(R). I enjoy and delight in experiencing artisan roasted coffee and I can ride the "third wave" as good as the next person, but sometimes I just want to remember the way things used to be. So, the Eight O'Clock K-Cup  is the perfect way to enjoy a coffee that's always had a special place in my heart - but with a new twist. All these new single-serve coffees are making me lazy. But, don't worry, I'm an equal opportunity coffee-lover. Here's to the weekend!

All Time Favorite Coffee Jingles

-

I have consumed a lot of coffee over the last couple of decades, but it's mainly through "trial and error," "word of mouth," or "pure luck," that I found those I've enjoyed the most. And, of course, the folks who reach out and let me know about the great coffees that are out there. But with micro roasters becoming more and more popular, and grocery store coffee being talked about less, even though many supermarket varieties are very good, I can't help but remember some of those jingles and television commercials that remain etched in my mind. Some of my favorite coffee jingles: "Good to the Last Drop" (TM) (Maxwell House) "Richness Worth A Second Cup" (TM) (Yuban) "The Best Part of Waking Up, Is Folgers In Your Cup" (TM) And, last but not least, drumroll. . . .my all-time favorite: "Fill It To the Rim With Brim" (TM) (Brim Decaffeinated Coffee) (special thanks to my sister for remin
