When I opened the package, the sweet smell of flavored coffee filled the room. The Cookies and Cream flavor is rich, with a nice aftertaste of cookies (without all of the calories!) The Almond Amaretto has a wonderful almond fragrance and a taste to match. I can imagine it would be great iced with some milk and maybe even a splash of Amaretto liqueur. Some flavored coffees Ive tried smell good, but the flavor doesnt make it through the brewing. If you like flavored coffee, I recommend trying Perfect Pot coffee from Gabby Goodies. The 2 oz. foil packets come in 19 flavors and some are available in decaf.
Gabby Goodies offers a whole range of gourmet goodies including coffee, tea, cocoa, cookies, mixes and dips. Browse around Pattys site at http://www.mygabbygoodies.biz/501 to take in the full line of products.

Coffee With Nonna: The Best Stories of My Catholic Grandmother During World War II, young Vincent Iezzi was at home with his grandmother in his Philadelphia neighborhood. Because of the war effort, most of the mothers, big sisters, and aunts were working in the factories while most of the fathers, big brothers, and uncles were off at war.
Nonna always knew just what to say. Gifted with a native ability to tell stories, her solution for every one of Vincent's questions or problems was another elaborate story, accompanied by cups of coffee sweetened with war-rationed brown sugar and milk.
And such stories they are! Angels and saints take on peasant charm, God paints peacocks' tails, and the humble good Joe always finishes first. Heroes. Plots. Intrigue. Better than any comic book, for sure.
Pull up a chair. You can almost smell the coffee.
