It’s only a days until my next travel adventure but I already have my eyes on another trip after that.
To maximise my money and make more trips possible, I try to cut costs and save money where I can. I bought a new coffee machine to stop me buying take away coffee and the saving was significant.
Another day, another New Year Resolution post. As I said yesterday, I am all about setting realistic goals and targets that are more in line with my lifestyle rather than stretching myself too far with impossible resolutions.
I have a list but this year I am going to continue sticking to 1 coffee a day. It sounds so simple but I was racking up far too many cups of coffee a day, it wasn’t good!
After a truly disappointing girls brunch down the street, my friends and I found ourselves craving cake and when in Jesmond there’s only one place to go – Cake Stories Coffee House.
If you follow my Instagram account (here), you’ll know I am more than fond of a cup of coffee or 2 to get me through a long day in the office so you can imagine how I am celebrating Coffee Week this week!
I’m cracking open my latest bag of OCC beans as it happens but when the nice people at House of Fraser sent me a nifty info graphic all about the strong black liquid I knew I had to post it. I don’t know if I have mentioned it before but my first job at the tender age of 16 was in a House of Fraser restaurant where I spent Saturdays dishing out cappuccinos from a fancy coffee machine!
The Coffee brewing moguls Ouseburn Coffee Company (OCC) not only have the Newcastle coffee crown, they have an added string to their bow – The Harvest Canteen.
