It’s All About Health, Or Is It?
As I got involved in the coffee business I researched this beverage. I wanted to be more educated so I could pass on this information to our coffee family. I found myself asking this question, is it all about health?
I learned about the many ups and downs about coffee, which by the way, there seems to be many more ups, as far as health is concerned. Also the importance of freshness, whole bean verses ground, water temperature, roasted the day of delivery, how to store it, cleaning your coffee pot properly and the list goes on. All important information and we do include this on our Coffee Lovers USA website and more. But for me and many others, I just plainly love the aroma that fills the room when a fresh pot is brewing. The wonderful taste as I sample my first sip.
The variety of coffee beans from all around the world that deliver their own distinct flavor. To me it’s close to walking into a home where fresh baked bread is just coming out of the oven.
Yes, I’m happy there are many health benefits surrounding our favorite brew, but what makes me a coffee drinker is the pleasure it brings in all the above mentioned areas.
Life can get pretty complicated at times and we can become very analytical. So let’s take a break from the busyness, take a deep breath, put up a pot of our favorite brew. Don’t chug it, but sip it and enjoy the taste, the aroma and life will seem sweeter. It’s not the destiny but the journey we need to enjoy. Let every moment count.
Remember, “Any Time is Coffee Time.”

Why Shop On Line?
When you shop on line you: Save money on gas! Save on time not having to search for a parking space! You have a selection from of products around the World, and services right there at your fingertips. You don’t have to rush to get there before the store closes, shop on line 24 hours a day. These are just a few of the benefits to shop on line.
Let’s face it, we all want the best deal. Price, sometimes, is the driving force behind our decision to purchase an item. It could be a product or service, but we are certainly pressured by price. Is the cheapest price always the better way to go? “Definitely, without a doubt, NO.” Many of us have had a bad experience of cheaper isn’t better! “If it sounds too good to be true, it usually is!”
But, how do I choose which on line store to purchase from, and how will I know I’ve made the right choice? Here are some tips that may help make that decision.
What to look out for; If the product or service is much cheaper than the average price after comparing several sites, Red Flag! If there is not a full description or visual of the product or service, Red Flag! If there is lack of information to help educate you in making your final selection, Red Flag! If there is lack of information about the Company, like how it got started, and their business practices in regard to their customers, Red Flag! If there is lack of contact information, if a problem should arise, or a question needs to be asked, Red Flag! If there is not a responsible Return Policy you can read, Red Flag! No well known secure credit card payment transaction, (such as PayPal etc.) Red Flag!
These are some of the items to watch out for. A website that has all this covered, would typicality be one that can be trusted and great to do business with. Hope these tips will help you in the future.

from coming to us also. To get joy, we must give it,
and to keep joy, we must scatter it.”

Do We Need The Best?
So, I was with my Dad the other day, sharing old stories, you know, picking his brain. After all, he will be 84 years old in September. He’s been around a little longer than I have.
He came from that generation of hard working people where provision for the family was key. A roof over our head, 3 square meals, clothes on our back, and provide for our immediate financial needs.
One of our topics of discussion turned to food. Mom was a great cook. She just passed away this year. In an Italian family, food was always an important topic, and we have excellent memories about Mom’s cooking.
Well, Dad, being older now and with out Mom, tends to go to restaurants when he’s not at our house. Restaurants can leave a lot to be desired when it comes to healthy and great tasting food. We all tend to choose where we eat in different ways. For some it’s all about money (the cheaper the better). Others need the ambience (comfort and elegance). And finally, some go for a fair price for a good meal (not the cheapest, or the most expensive). For me, I lean toward the third category. Give me a meal that is fresh, good presentation, healthy with great taste at a fair price and I’m happy and so is my body.
Giving this info to my Dad, changed (I think) his perspective on where he eats. Garbage in, does nothing for your health or your dining experience. I found out Dad was going to a fairly cheap restaurant serving pre-cooked bacon and just plain loading a plate with plenty of filling items, some without nutritional value, not to mention the absence of great taste. So I recommended a friend’s restaurant that just opened in a location downtown, close to where my Dad lives. Yes, the food was more expensive, but what a pleasurable treat. Fair price, good presentation, great taste, wonderful service and all for $3 to $4 more in cost.
I just found out Dad went back to the cheap place the other morning for breakfast, it’s hard to teach an old dog new tricks, but I know he will be back at my friend’s place again, because he tasted the difference first hand.
Do we need the best? No.
Do we need the cheapest? No.
Do we need the most expensive? No.
Search out the places that have your best interest in mind. Buy quality products at a fair price. When you find a restaurant or business that serves you well, spread the word and support them.
Our goal at Coffee Lovers USA is to be that place that serves you well. Hopefully this article will give you a little bit of insight into who we are and what we are all about.
Here to serve you.

Mothers Day Is Coming!
Why not brighten up Mom with a unique Gift
from Coffee Lovers USA. With so many to
choose from, you are sure to put a smile on her
face. Gift Baskets, Candle Gifts, Stoneware Mugs,
Espresso Machines and so much more!
When you think of it, a gift last so much longer
than dinner out and is less expensive. Here’s a
thought, cook Mom a home cooked meal with
family involved, make it an event she will not
forget.
To see her family working together to serve her,
will be a heartfelt blessing to Mom. Lets face it she
is usually the one serving the rest of us. There is
just nothing better than having your loved ones
around the dinner table, sharing stories new and old.
“Happy Mother’s Day Mom’s!”
Life is Coffee!
A group of alumni, highly established in their careers, got together to visit their old university professor. The conversation soon turned into complaints about stress in work and life.
Offering his guests coffee, the professor went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and an assortment of cups; porcelain, plastic, glass, crystal, some plain looking, some expensive, and some exquisite, telling them to help themselves to the coffee. After all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the professor, said: “If you noticed, all the nice looking expensive cups were taken up, leaving behind the plain and cheap ones. While it is but normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that is the source of your problems and stress.”
“Be assured that the cup itself adds no quality to the coffee. In most cases, it’s just more expensive and in some cases even hides what we drink. What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously went for the best cups, and then began eyeing each other’s cups.”
“Now consider this: Life is the coffee, and the jobs, houses, cars, things, money and position in society are the cups. They are just tools to hold and contain life, and the type of cup we have does not define nor change the quality of life we live. Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee God has provided us.”
God brews the coffee, not the cups…enjoy your coffee. “Being happy doesn’t mean everything’s perfect; it meansyou’ve decided to see beyond the imperfections.” Live in peace and peace will live in you.
