Coffee Break

Good Sunday morning!
(At least it is in my part of the world.)
I've started adding a teaspoon of coconut oil to my morning coffee which is quite delicious and has many health benefits.

I think by now you all know I like me a good, quick, easy crochet project.
And this one, from Repeat Crafter Me fits the bill nicely.
 Coffee coasters.
I've already given several away and friends have sent me back pictures of their coasters in use.
I hope you get the chance to make some of your own coffee memories today.
Friendship blessings,

Your coasters are absolutely adorable, Tammy. I like how your friends have taken pictures showcasing them.
I made a new smoothie today with coffee as one of the ingredients. Very tasty.

Your coasters are so cute, Tammy! I used to drink coconut oil in my coffee. I don't know why I stopped. But, since you've reminded me...I'm going to start using it again. Thanks for sharing.

Betsy said...

I'm a tea and cocoa drinker myself but those would work just fine for both of those too. What a nice gift for your friends Tammy. You are such a sweetheart.
Blessings,

Now I can't wait till morning to have a cup of coffee. It's good to see that some of your friends like BIG cups, too. Cute coasters, Tammy. Diane

I sure did enjoy some creating with friends and coffee on my Sunday.
The little coasters are sweet.

Lorrie said...

What great coasters! I'm not a coffee drinker, but they would work equally well for mugs of tea! Have a good week.

The coasters are cute and make sweet little gifts, Tammy!

Linda said...

Those are super cute, Tammy!
I'm not really a coffee drinker. I have 1/2 cup in the morning and that's it. I sometimes like tea, but mostly I just drink tons and tons of plain ole' water. ;)

Debbie said...

As I too love coffee and crochet... I love the coasters! So cute.

FrenchGardenHouse said...

I agree, there is nothing better than good coffee and good friends! Together they make for a fantastic time. Your coaster are so cute, beautiful colors, too.

Dearest Tammy,
What a lovely coffee coasters you crocheted!
Yes, I too have been using coconut oil in my coffee which is very healthy and doesn't taste bad either.
Happy that your jasmine is doing so well. Ours blooms also still, a few blooms at the time and we enjoy each of them.
Sending you hugs,
Mariette

June said...

Your friends are so lucky!!! I love this pattern Tammy! So darling and so colorful!
I am going to have to get on the coconut oil bandwagon, I think :)))
sending big, big hugs from me...

Roses, Lace and Brocante said...

Love these too Tammy! Gorgeous colours.
Coconut oil in coffee - interesting - I'll think about it!
Enjoy your weekend dear friend, please have a walk for me as I've injured my knee and can't get out.... darn it!
Hugs

Tammy -- I do like coffee and I do like coconut oil -- never thought about combining the two. Will do in the future -- a big plus is the benefits! -- barbara

Nancy said...

OK, I'm not going crazy. I looked at your first pic and was concerned that you had something in your coffee...was that OIL or just weird bubbles or a bad photo??

I've never heard of that combo, but glad you discovered it!

Melanie said...

I belong to a Facebook group called My Whole Food Life Recipes and a lot of people on there have mentioned putting coconut oil in their coffee. I can't bring myself to try that yet, lol. I'm a dedicated cream (organic) and stevia in my coffee girl. I use coconut oil for cooking and baking - and as a moisturizer! - so I already get enough of it. I also heard cashew milk is good in coffee, so that's what I'm going to try. I was at the grocery store today and unfortunately, they didn't have the unsweetened one. Love your mug coasters!

Quinn said...

The coasters are really cute, and obviously very functional - nice to have your friends sending back action shots :)
I don't drink coffee...wonder what coconut oil would taste like in tea? Maybe I'll give it a try. I do use it for cooking and sometimes as a moisturizer.
By the way, I was trying to work out how it could be Sunday there and Friday here, and then I noticed the date of your post...once again I have had multiple posts suddenly appear - 3 at once this time. Can't figure out why, but it happens in my feed with a three or four of the blogs I follow. Oh well, as long as I get all your posts at some time, that's what really matters! :)

Anitha said...

The coasters looks just perfect for a cup of coffee!! so lovely. Have a wonderful day!

Gracie Saylor said...

The coffee cup holders are pretty and practical and a lovely gift, Tammy. I might give the coconut oil idea a try. Thanks for sharing! xx

Love your artwork and your coffee coasters. I'm going to make some of those; a quick project and so cute for gifting. Thank you for sharing it.
