So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

Making Your Own Coffee From Home

By Lisa Marie


Most individuals are feeling the pressure at the moment, so more and more people are taking a look at easy and fun techniques to save money at home. A lot of people this Christmas will be receiving bread makers as presents, they are a cool gifts because they cool to use, you save some cash and you get to make your own delicious bread in the process. Lots of folks are now also preserving foods like their grandmothers used to.

If you like we are in a new home cooking renaissance forced on us my financial inhibitions, but really enjoyed by all that take part.

Lately this trend is continuing with folks roasting their own coffee from raw green coffee beans. What is also quite engaging when roasting your own coffee is that you do not in particular need to purchase any new kitchen equipment, instead you need to use the standard popcorn popper!

Simply insert your green coffee beans into a popcorn popper and then turn up the heat, watch as the raw green coffee beans turn golden at first, then becoming their familiar brown colour, then they will start to grow, crackle and pop. When the bean's sugars have fully caramelised you can turn the heat down and let them cool off, waiting in excitement and anticipation to brew up a cup and taste your own brand coffee.

The method of making the ideal roasted coffee is basically a tiny bit more complex than that, but in theory it is very similar and equally as much fun as popping popcorn.

Green coffee can also be consumed without roasting it. In its non roasted state (aka green coffee) it may be employed as a natural health supplement that assists with ageing and weight loss.

Its use as a slimming aid stems from its natural anti-oxidants, as you probably know, these help your body protect itself from free radical attacks, stress and damage. So the unprocessed bean may help to keep your body cells, healthy and well cared for, it is also rumoured to be anti ageing and some stars say it has done wonders for their waistline.
