Making a Masala Chai from scratch requires the right amount …

Never do I like drinking a cup of coffee but when I started working during night shift I begin to appreciate it. Aroma of a coffee really can make me feel awake and kicks away the negative vibes around me. I never smoke, I don’t like its smell so …

I’m an extreme lover of strawberry cheesecakes and when I walked down the ice cream aisle in super Wal-Mart, my eyes began bugging out of my head.
I knew how fast the strawberry cheesecake ice cream would go, so I had to sneak into it and make my company/friends believe …

I am going to share something really yummy I experienced just recently. Before going any further, let me confess I am highly addicted to tea. Even if someone offers me a cup of tea in the middle of night, I am always ready to it. But I have to …

I am a big oatmeal lover, but I usually eat the regular kind out of the big cylinder box! I tried the Meijer Spice Variety at a friend’s house, though, and I loved it so much, I had to buy some for myself!
This oatmeal comes in packets, with five …

I used to like these instant Options drinks but I went mad buying sachets of this the last time I went to the supermarket and I am not so enamoured by them. They are only 37 calories per drink so maybe for a very low calorie hot chocolate …

I find Mrs. Freshley’s Swiss Rolls to be pretty much standard fare. By standard fare, I mean that there is nothing that really sets these Swiss Rolls apart from those made by other companies. In fact, Little Debbie offers a packaged variety of Swiss Rolls that have different fillings …

Do you like blueberries? If you do, these Special K bars will be quite the treat! I will say though that they are pretty gosh darn sweet, so keep that in mind. I like both blueberries and sweet stuff, so for me, the combination of those two things in …

Stouffer’s Spaghetti with Meatballs is a meal that I will not be having again. The reason that I will not be having this meal again is because the meatballs are terrible! They not only have little flavor to them, but the little flavor that they have is not a …

As I live in Florida, I tend to be spoiled with the real deal: fresh orange juice. With orange trees in abundance, it is simply about picking the oranges off trees and squeezing the oranges for super fresh juice. Even if we didn’t have oranges nearby, we can head …

Mama Cozzi’s Pizza Kitchen Cheesesticks looked extremely appetizing on the box that they came in. They looked so good that I overlooked what I considered to be a somewhat unreasonable price for five cheesesticks. Two dollars and nineteen cents is cheaper than what other stores want for cheesesticks, although …

This is one of my absolute favorite treats! At less than ninety cents per donut, it is also a very cheap snack. I love that I don’t have to feel guilty about the fact that it’s a bad treat AND expensive, because what’s ninety cents?
I get a Tim Horton’s …

I still purchase this particular brand today; mostly because they do still provide a filling lunch or dinner (and …

The Side Salad at Chick-fil-A is a great option for those that simply would like a decent sized salad to go with their sandwich and not a large salad with chicken in it. The side salad is just that: something that is meant to be eaten with something, while …

I have always enjoyed the Carte Noire instant coffee so I tried the filter coffee which can also be used in cafetieres. I use a rounded tablespoon (dessert spoon) of coffee for each cup for the right strength for me, which is a good, strong cup. Just …
