Feaatured quote of the day!!

 Good day my coffee fiends friends!! Here are some fantastic coffee quotes that are sure to bring a smile to your face and possibly a caffeine craving to your body!!:) Hope you enjoy these wonderful quotes....and have a fabulous Friday!!

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1.)If this is coffee, then please-bring me some tea. But if this is tea, please bring me some coffee.

~Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865)

 

2.)I think we all pray to the first cup of the day. It's a silent prayer, sung while the mind is still foggy and blue. "O Magic Cup," it might go, "carry me above the traffic jam. Keep me civil in the subway. And forgive my employer, as you forgive me. Amen"

~Stewert Lee Allen

 

3.)Only one thing is certain about coffee.... Wherever it is grown, sold, brewed, and consumed, there will be lively controversy, strong opinions, and good conversation.

~Mark Pendergrast

 

4.)The morning cup of coffee has an exhilaration about it which the cheering influence of the afternoon or evening cup of tea cannot be expected to reproduce.

~Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr., "Over the Teacups," 1891

 

5.)Coffee is the best thing to douse the sunrise with.

~Drew Sirtors

 

6.)Over second and third cups flow matters of high finance, high state, common gossip and low comedy. [Coffee] is a social binder, a warmer of tongues, a soberer of minds, a stimulant of wit, a foiler of sleep if you want it so. From roadside mugs to the classic demi-tasse, it is the perfect democrat.

~Author Unknown

 

7.)No coffee can be good in the mouth that does not first send a sweet offering of odor to the nostrils.

~Henry Ward Beecher

 

8.)I believe humans get a lot done, not because we're smart, but because we have thumbs so we can make coffee.

~Flash Rosenberg

 

9.)As soon as you sit down to a cup of hot coffee, your boss will ask you to do something which will last until the coffee is cold.

~Author Unknown

 

10.)Sleep is a symptom of caffeine deprivation.

~Author Unknown

 

11.)Decaffeinated coffee is kind of like kissing your sister.

~Bob Irwin

 

12.)I bought a decaffeinated coffee table, you can't even see a difference.

~Author Unknown

 

Five Hospitality Senses

When you walk into a room in your home and it " feels good", then you know that all five of the hospitality senses have been firmly established , SEE, TASTE,HEAR, SMELL, and TOUCH. These are great hospitality secrets! Being aware of the five senses should always be in the back of your mind when you are decorating or preparing to entertain. When guests enter a room in your home, you want them to see something attractive right? So let's talk about some ideas that would make a home more attractive
                                                                       "sight wise".

First, you want to make a clean and orderly" first impression". Even if you don't have a lot of nick~ knacks to decorate with, the clean and  neat appearance of your home will immediately set your guest at ease!!

Second, arrange something that is pleasing to the eye, it doesn't take a lot of work.......just a little experimentation. You can find great ideas from magazines,and decorating websites. One of my favorite sites is: theoldpaintedcottage.com                If your like me, you can see a wonderful idea and then totally forget it later!! A great way to avoid this, is to create your own idea book. All you need is a medium size spiral notebook, plastic page covers,and a pair of scissor or a handy little cutting tool from a srapbook store......then when you find an idea cut it out or write it down and put it in your book!! It also makes a great conversation piece if you put it on a coffee table for guests to look at!!

Thank you for stopping by The Coffee Cottage and remember~                                                                                                        "If bad decorating was a hanging offense, there'd be bodies hanging from every tree! "
Sylvester Stallone.......(so don't be afraid to try:)
