I really needed this article to be published. It’s not just for myself but for anyone else who heavily relies on coffee to boost their energy. Let’s face it, it’s not the healthiest option. One of the reasons is that coffee can cause dehydration. The other reason I have an issue with is the dependency that is created. I mean, have you seen my Insta? Living in a day and age where we are expected to stay wired can not only drain us but also be a detriment to our health. Coffee usually becomes our go-to drink to keep going…
For some reason, many people consider crêpe a foreign concept. Not because the yummy pancake has French origins but they just don’t know how to approach making crêpe in the kitchen.

I am not a big fan of Italian food. Maybe it’s because almost everything has tomato sauce. But over the weekend I did buy some pasta, Porcini mushroom tomato sauce, and ground beef to make meatballs.
