Great Additions

You can add the beans or grounds in the mug as part of a package and string it together with a special bow. You can also give matching coffee equipment or other items that work well with the cup such as coffee makers or specialty coffee tools such as a grounds press that helps crush those beans into luscious ground coffee. The possibilities are endless in terms of giving a gift to the coffee lover in your family, so try it out with a basic coffee cup and work your way up.

Is one cup of coffee a measurement of a cup or is it like saying one mug of coffee? Pregnant- how much is ok?
I am 35 weeks pregnant and my doctor said I can have 2 cups of coffee a day. I didn't think about it at the time but I am not sure if that usually means I should take a measuring cup and measure 2 cups out or does that mean two coffee cups of coffee? Two cups doesn't even equal to one coffee cup or mug. What do you think?
means 2 'mugs' .. but small ones, not the biggest in your cupboard 
. at 35 weeks theres little danger from caffeine anyway. its during the first 12 weeks when the baby is forming that caffeine can pose a risk of miscarriage. By 35 weeks, the most its going to do is give your bub a slight caffeine hit and you'll end up getting kicked relentlessly for a couple of hours. its always better to be on the safe side, but if you really love your coffee, its fine to have a cup or two a day.

Sorting Out the Coffee Cup Recycling Dilemma
It is estimated that 65% of the American population drinks coffee. Of those coffee drinkers it is further estimated that 250 coffee cups per year are thrown away per person. The grand total being 58 billion discarded coffee cups! You could fill the largest football stadium in the world (Michigan Stadium) 50 times with that amount of coffee waste.
That's a lot of paper coffee cups! It is clear that if a solution isn't found to divert coffee cup waste, the negative impact on the environment will be critical.
Even as some recycling programs now include coffee cup recycling as a part of their program, the problem has been the need to separate the paper coffee cups from the plastic lids. If the lids are included with the cups, the coffee cups are unable to be recycled and end up in the landfill.
The only way to solve this problem is to create a means of separating the coffee cups from their lids at the source of collection. Luckily, there is a Coffee Cup Recycler which does that very thing. Forcing the coffee cup drinker to remove the lid from their coffee cup before dropping the cup into the slot is the first step in ensuring a clean sort of recycling coffee cups.
The Coffee Cup Recycler from Busch Systems was unveiled at the Specialty Coffee Association of America's Exposition in Houston, TX recently to rave reviews. National Recycling Consultant Brandon Rutledge attended the show and stated "The SCAA Exposition attendees are very impressed with the Coffee Cup Recycler. It goes a long way to solving the coffee cup problem we face in our recycling efforts".
Even if your recycling program does not include paper cup recycling, you will want to separate coffee cups from your other recyclables. If paper coffee cups end up in your bottles & cans, these will be contaminated and thus unable to be recycled, ending up in a landfill.
Help out and do your part. If your recycling program allows you to recycle coffee cups, make sure they are separated from their lids and end up getting recycled. If your recycling program does not allow for coffee cups, at least ensure they do not end up tainting the rest of your recycling efforts. Either way, you win.
Let's start separating those billions of coffee cups, one sip at a time.

Beautiful Garbage $2.00 Garbage's third album is an almost total departure for modern rock's renowned poster children. Shirley Manson, Butch Vig, Duke Erickson, and Steve Marker robustly straddled the line between alternative rock and techno in their two efforts, whipping up two finely crafted CDs that captured the cultural mood of the late '90s. After six years in the saddle, they've shaken off the charge that they're a... |
