Coffee & Reading the Morning Paper
Happy almost Thanksgiving + Black Friday, coffee lovers. How are you today? Hope all is well. There are a lot of great sales happening this week and into next for the holidays! To help you get started, we suggest our brand new Coffee + Chocolate Gift Guide for 2022! Check it out!
If you want some decadent chocolate for the holidays (great gift of course!!) we recommend international shipper and online chocolate shop extraordinaire, Bar & Cocoa, and be sure to use the Black Friday related codes listed below!
Our beloved Vosges Haut Chocolat is also having deals! If you download their new app and use the code CYBER20, you get 20% off, EARLIER than when they drop deals online in a few days (we expect).
We wish you a truly lovely Thanksgiving with friends, family and loved ones!
Wishing you peace. Wishing you time cupsouls. Stay well.

Quotes for the Weekend
“Tough moments are common before a great victory. Lean on the fact that you are more than a survivor. You are more than your past. You are more than what hurts. Old habits do not define you. You are a hero that is ready to emerge. Your transformation will inspire others to do the hard things they need to do to thrive. Even if this moment is a struggle, you always have the opportunity to start again.” — Yung Pueblo
