Le Yummy Pastries with Le Cafe and Jazz for the Mornings

Good morning everyone.
As I wake up this morning I stop to take a moment to think...."Man, I wish I had a pastry with coffee today". It's almost a ritual for people to go to Starbucks, or a local Coffee Shop to buy their warm coffee and join it with a marvelous, delicious pastry like a Blueberry Muffin, Coffee Cake, Donut, or even a Biscotti, and the list goes on.
As the mantra of my mind goes..."Be Healthy, you don't exercise but at least eat healthy"....well it's tormenting at times.
So to feed my eyes and mind over images of what I wish I could eat. Here are some Pastries to indulge you all on the magnificent pastries to join your hot coffee. By the way, almost every time I drink coffee at home, it's cold??
Also, I believe that listening to Jazz in the morning is such a easy going feeling for the morning duties or before work. To accompany you on that breakfast and take you through the morning.

 
 

 

 

Meals with Coffee...Yes it gets better My Friends!

Now I am a huge fan of the Food Network, I watch it to pass on the time and avoid eating snacks or anything fatty. I was thinking the other day about the specific foods Americans eat these days and Coffee is becoming a meal replacement, because obviously we as Americans are desperately trying to shed those extra pounds.
I got on Google, simply typed in "Meals with Coffee" and of course the Food Network provides amazing recipes that incorporate our addictive coffee as a main ingredient for magnificent meals for the family.
Taking a look at the recipes from pastries to dinners, the one that made me want to go out and buy food was the "New York Strip Steak with Spicy Coffee Rub". I know...a coffee rub?? Heck I'm hoping one day a coffee scented lotion is created.

More Reasons to Keep Drinking My Friends!!!!

Good morning my fellow Coffee Friends, hope you all arrive to work on time as I should be getting ready myself. But I skim through BuzzFeed.com  a lot just to see what happens in the Social Media world, and I came across an interesting video that I believe can make you all think for a sec if the information is legitimate or not.
If you have time, take a look at the video uploaded to Youtube.com and see if this actually pertains to you.

Coffee actually can depict your Personality?

So as I'm flowing throughout Pinterest, I notice a somewhat of a diagram that depicts the different personalities coffee portrays on the drinker. Interesting?? I just assumed that apart from the love and admiration, the constant consumption and given fact of possible addiction, that coffee couldn't actually tell you who the person is. But as social media likes to analyze the users intake and comments on common objectives its no wonder coffee can tell you the personality of the person sitting next you.

Take a glance of what could possibly be your personality as I'm sure you will be amused as I was and then I realize how obsessed I am at the mere image of coffee.

The Psychology of Coffee / La Psicología del Café

Tengo una Licenciatura en Psicología y he aprendido mucho acerca de los efectos y los disparadores la cafeína tiene sobre el cuerpo. Sé que a muchos les interesará leer pequeñas cosas acerca de la "intencionalidad" de café.

Aparte de los gustos y el azúcar que nos encanta añadir, la gran cosa acerca de café es el beneficio en nosotros que son los funciones del cerebro. La hormona asociada a este "sentirse bien" es la famosa dopamina que de verdad muy similar a la cocaína y el éxtasis.

El café es consumido como una sustancia psicoactiva en el mundo y los psicólogos están haciendo la pregunta a los consumidores: "significa esto que anhelamos la excitación?"

El novelista francés dijo en su libro "Honoré de Balzac": "este café se sumerge en el estómago... la mente se despierta, y ideas pour adelante como los batallones del gran ejército en el campo de batalla...Recuerdos de carga al galope... la caballería ligera de comparaciones se autoactualiza magníficamente; la artillería de la lógica prisa con su tren de municiones; destellos de ingenio pop-up como tiradores agudos".

Básicamente esta es una buena explicación de "Adicción", esta taza caliente bebemos casi todos los días son algo que nos hace sentir bien porque toca todos los sistemas sensibles en nuestro cerebro. Pero ten cuidado, que esto es muy similar a las sensaciones de cocaína y marihuana incluso. Así que beber con responsabilidad mis amigos.

I have Bachelors in Psychology and I have learned many of the effects caffeine takes on the body. I know many people are interested in reading the effects and interesting facts in terms of coffee. Apart from the sugar intakes and the different likes many have on the beverage, but also there is the grand benefit caffeine has on our brain.

The hormone that is usually associated as the “feel good” sensation is the famous dopamine that actually is quite similar to cocaine and ecstasy. Coffee is the most widely consumed psychoactive and psychologists are asking the question, “Does this mean we crave the excitement?”

The French novelist once said in his book “Honore de Balzac”: “"This coffee plunges into the stomach...the mind is aroused, and ideas pour forth like the battalions of the Grand Army on the field of battle.... Memories charge at full gallop...the light cavalry of comparisons deploys itself magnificently; the artillery of logic hurry in with their train of ammunition; flashes of wit pop up like sharp-shooters." 

Basically this is a good explanation for Addiction, this cup we consume almost everyday is something that makes us feel good because it touches our sensations in our brain. But be careful, because it can lead similarly to the same sensations as cocaine or marijuana even. So drink responsibly my friends.
