How do you add flavor to your life? Those small things that just sweeten your days?
The way I add some flavor to my life these days is by yardsale and thriftstore shopping. It is always the thrill of the hunt, chasing down bargains and having a mental list that I go through while out scouring the sales. Usually I find the items on my wishlist, if I wait long enough.
Before I leave for one of these early morning treasure hunts, I grab myself a to-go cup of coffee and flavor it up just right for me.
How do you like your coffee?
I’ll admit, I have not always been a coffee drinker, so it surprises me sometimes just how much I enjoy that one cup of coffee I have each and every morning. My hubby gets up and grinds the beans and makes a full pot of coffee every morning and when I get up, the first thing I do is go in the kitchen and make myself a nice, sweet cup of java.
No plain cup of coffee for me, it must have flavor and LOTS of sweet. I’ll take a little coffee with my creamer, please. 🙂 I rely on Coffee-mate flavors to give some extra sweetness and mellow flavor to my coffee and that completely takes out the bitterness that coffee sometimes has for me. These are 2 of my fave recent flavors that I picked up to use, French Vanilla and Italian Sweet Creme. Anything creamy or vanilla-y is good for me.

I don’t start my day without a cup of coffe and one of the wonderful flavored creams from coffeemate. They make the best creamers and you can pick the flavor you are feeling for the morning. my favorite is hazelnut but the holiday special favors are also a special treat,esp.the peppermints…

I cannot start the day without coffee (or I get a headache! lol Can you say “addicted”?) Ususally I have it plain, but sometimes go for French Vanilla
Rhonda Ensey says
I adore my coffee with splenda and hazelnut creamer most days…. but love the Thanksgiving and Christmas flavors :Pumpkin Pie and Gingerbread…… Yummyyyyyy
shel says
I like a little Creme Brulee creamer in my coffee and sometimes I add my own chocolate syrup spike when I need a little pick-me-up…I enjoy the finer things in life and try to add a little flavor to my personal life by reading decorating and craft blogs for inspiration and actually trying some projects out on my home. I used to think I lacked a craft gene..what I really needed was some direction. There’s a real sense of accomplishment when you complete something and it looks awesome, especially when you didn’t think you had it in you!

Vanilla is my favorite and that is how my husband and I start our day everyday before we even utter a word to one another
Rachel says
I like it black, or with milk sometimes, but when I am going flavored it’s classic vanilla all the way.

Count me in as a fan of Nestle Coffee-mate Cinnamon Bun! And to flavor up my day, I write stream-of-consciousness in a beat-up old journal. This is for my eyes alone, and the simple process of writing relaxes me and helps me gain perspective. I feel ready to tackle the rest of the day.
Great giveaway. Thanks!

I’m not a big coffee drinker, but I do like a mocha once in a while.

I love French Vanilla – starting my day with coffee gets me ready for all the ‘flavor’ of taking care of my boys!
Mikki M says
I eat drink and DREAM coffee. I am A.D.D. so I REALLY need my coffee to function (it’s my drug). I am a total Hazelnut creamer kind of girl. I call it my ‘dessert coffee’ when I add my coffee mate! YUMMMMMMM…
Stefanie says
I add flavor to my coffee with Coffeemate Hazelnut because I love the delicious taste and it is the perfect way to wake up in the morning. I add flavor to my life with my friends because we love having our coffee moments together where we can catch up on things, relax and laugh out loud. My friends are always there for me, just like I can always depend on Coffeemate to make my coffee taste great. I am a member of the Coffeemate Brew Crew and love the Coffeemate flavors.
Deb Anderson says
My absolute favorite is Coffeemate Amaretto! In fact I’m enjoying a cup right now. 🙂 Coffee just isn’t coffee without Coffeemate, and Amaretto adds that little touch of variety and luxury that makes it all mine. I keep a stock of it at all times, both liquid and powder. Love it!!
Vickie Bartlett says
Although I normally drink my coffee black, occasionally I like it sweet and flavored with French Vanilla
cybrown says
I am cybrown a member of the brew crew and I flavor up with coffee mate hazelnuts each morning. And sometimes I switch to French vanilla depending on my taste for the day. I really enjoy the many flavors that coffee may has to offer.
Marinewife says
I am a member of the Coffee-Mate Brew Crew and my favorite is Creme Brulee with a nice shot of Hershey’s special dark syrup. I like mine sweet too, but like a mocha! I also discovered using it in French toast this weekend, really great change!
Shawna says
My hubby is the coffee drinker in our house. I try to get him a different flavor every time. I think the variety is good for him. 🙂
Lisa says
Cinn. Bun and Vanilla nut are great but I LOVE the seasonal Caramel Apple the most!
cybrown says
I am a member of the brew crew team and I add flavor to my life each day with a cup of coffee flavored wet coffee mate hazelnut or French vanilla. While drinking a cup of coffee each day flavored with my favorite coffee mate cream I get a lot of energy to complete my morning exercise using my stationary bike. Depending on my mood I have many flavors to choose between using the coffee made flavored creams.

I love my coffee in the winter with those special winter flavors like gingerbread and white chocolate mocha. Nothing like a flavorful coffee drink!
Louise H. says
Italian sweet cream is my new favorite.
