Susanne's Bakery, Gig Harbor, WA

Last weekend I enjoyed my mocha at Susanne's Bakery on a bright and sunny day. The baristas are always extremely friendly here and the coffee and variety of foods are perfect.

I especially love the great views this place has as well as the little birdies that always join me while I sit outside.

I will definitely be going back to this place soon!

Aroma Ridge Coffee Box

I was so excited to receive my coffee box from Aroma Ridge!

One of my favorites in this month's box is the smooth and rich Island Blend Coffee. I enjoyed this with the scrumptious almond biscotti it came with.

(Probably the best biscotti I have ever tasted)

These coffees are fantastic - each one comes with it's own informational card and space to write your own notes.

I will definitely be ordering more soon. You can sign up for these cute monthly coffee boxes at aromaridge,com. (IG: @aromaridge)  

Cutters Point Coffee Olympic Dr, Gig Harbor, WA

Cutters Point Coffee ☕

This morning I had the pleasure of stopping in Cutters Point Coffee in Gig Harbor, WA.

I was excited to see the newly renovated place that is now extremely cozy and inviting. The fire place and friendly baristas make you feel right at home and there are plenty of seats to choose from.

The coffee is always fantastic at Cutters Point and the bagel I ordered was absolutely delicious. I also hear the pastries are amazing so I am looking forward to my next visit and trying something new!

The shop is clean and well put together, which is something I always look for. The outdoor area with flowers has to be my favorite - I probably could have sat there all day.

This is a great spot for getting work done, as long as you don't mind the hustle and bustle around you.

Thank you Cutters Point for another excellent coffee experience. The friendly environment was just what I needed to start my day.

Signature Select Italian Roast ☕

It may just be the Italian in me, but this has to be one of my favorite K-cup coffees ever. It's dark, rich, and contains hints of berry and chocolate that I absolutely love!

Matching this coffee with my dark chocolate Silk almond milk makes for a delicious mocha taste.
I have actually been enjoying this coffee while learning a bit of Italian - which has been surprisingly easy and enjoyable with the app Duolingo. In just a short amount of time I have learned so much!

What K-cups do you enjoy? Let me know in the comments below. Arrivederci for now!

Morning mocha with one of my favorite mugs (and my favorite PJ's). <3

I have recently been using dark chocolate almond milk in my coffee and it has the perfect taste! Have you ever tried it? Or am I the only one out there...

This is probably my new favorite way to drink coffee. Sometimes if it's too bitter tasting I add a tiny bit of half and half. I've actually noticed a difference in my skin (and energy) from consuming less dairy. If you're struggling with acne or oily skin I recommend you cut down on your dairy intake and see if it helps!

For now this coffee mixture I created will do, but I will always keep trying out new things!

Now I would like to know, how do you take your coffee?

Moore Coffee Seattle, WA

Moore Coffee Seattle is one of my favorite coffee shops! The interior is adorable and sophisticated. (More pictures to come!)

I greatly enjoyed sitting in the cute outdoor area with a wonderful view of the city, while sipping one of the best coffee's I've ever gotten!
I had the skinny iced Mocha to cool me down on the hot summer day - and I must say it was one of the best Mocha's I've had yet!

Thank you Moore Coffee Seattle! <3

Team Keurig or Coffee pot?

I love playing around with different tastes of coffee and trying new things, so I am actually very happy we have both of these machines in our house.

So far I like a few of the Keurig and a few of the coffee pot.

I will keep searching for my favorite ones and share soon! For now I need to know, which ones are your favorite?
What team are you on? 

Marvelous Mocha <3 

 A marvelous mocha on the Seattle boardwalk ☕

Taking the ferry from Bremerton to Seattle is one of my favorite things to do! It's pretty cheap and it has a great view of the city as you arrive and depart.

Seattle! Find more pics on my IG: @monikakrup

 







You are dropped off where you can easily get to a few different shops and cafes. The lovely Pikes Place is also near by! I can't wait to go back and discover what else there is. 


So I need ideas!  What are your go-to places in Seattle?

Coffee with my favorite mug <3 

Lets talk about creamers!

I've recently tried non-dairy substitutes to my usual half and half. The first was almond milk but it wasn't creamy enough for me, and left a bitter taste in my mouth. Hoping for better luck, I then tried out soy milk, which much to my dismay, found I am allergic to. 

So that left me with Coconut Milk, the creamiest non-dairy substitute I have tasted so far. I am so happy I opted to try it out! It's much less bitter for me.

Are there any other non-dairy creamers you like? Please leave comments below!

FIRST UP ☕

Coffee from the Devoted Kiss Cafe in Gig Harbor, WA. The coffee mugs were gorgeous and the coffee divine. You have a choice to sit and overlook the beautiful view of the water, or inside the adorable and cozy cafe. Not to mention the upscale food was delicious.
