GeekDad, Hacking IKEA and more

Morning,

You’ve heard about hacking software and hacking sites…but have you heard about hacking IKEA?

Just came across this superb blog:

IKEA Hacker

It describes clever and unique ways to use your IKEA furniture, like:

That’s not all, of course - you can also read from GeekDad:

… What do you get when you take the finest in inexpensive Swedish furniture, some lumber, hardware, paint, and a little Geekdad (and Geekfamily) imagination? A fun, efficient space for brothers living in the same room together….

…When we got to their room, the mission was clear: do something on a limited budget that would be unique, space-saving, and fun. If we were to buy new beds for them, most of the budget would be gone right away, so we decided to do our best to recycle what we had…MORE….

Gotta love those creative ideas.

ThankYouVeryMuch!

Need to get more protein in? Enter your morning cup of coffee!

Morning,

You know, it never ceases to amaze me how many people force themselves to chug down protein drinks in their effort to get fit and lose weight, and then complain about the taste, consistency, etc.

I have a better way - did you know you can add protein powder to your morning cup of coffee and imbibe it then?

Yes indeed! True, you DO have to stir it quite well, else it clumps up….but, as a way to both flavor your coffee and also fulfill your morning protein cravings, it works like a charm! I myself use Costco Vanilla Whey protein but there are a bazillion others from which you can choose.

One note - your coffee will NOT lighten up much in color as it does when you pour in creamer. But as you’re drinking this wonder and not peering intently at it, that shouldn’t be much of a problem. :)

And if you want other flavors as well, get thee hence to the zero calorie zero carb Sweetleaf flavorings - those droplets of intense delight come in flavors like

  • Vanilla Creme
  • Valencia Orange
  • Apricot
  • English Toffee
  • Cinnamon
  • Chocolate Raspberry
  • Milk Chocolate

and much more. It’s a unique creative way to start your morning.

ThankYouVeryMuch!

OMIGOSH - Calories in a Cup of Coffee, how many????

Coffee, as all wise mortals know,

Fatal error: Class ‘expKrc’ not found in /home/ling3/domains/owlbert.com/public_html/php-bin/eBay_cls.php on line 138
is the beverage of the gods, the nirvana of the senses, the ultimate of luxurious relaxations and…you get the idea. One cup, two cups, 17.4 cups….it’s simply sheer bliss.

Sheer bliss, that is…until you take into account how many calories you might really be consuming.

I was alerted to this notion by Brewed Coffee.com in their posting. To wit:

…The good news is that plain black coffee contains zero fat and very few calories. That means I can drink as many cups of black coffee that I want, right? The bad news is that I like more than plain black coffee! I like Coffee Mate (as you might know by now) – 2 heaping tablespoons of it in every cup. How many calories does this add? According to the Mayo Clinic, one tablespoon plain nondairy creamer has 33 calories. That means 66 calories per cup for me! Whew! For other “extras” and their corresponding calories, check out the Mayo Clinic’s data ….MORE….

That by itself could be considered depressing, until you explore how many calories, say, a Starbucks Cinnamon Dolce Creme Grande offers you:

270 calories

And a Vente Caramel Frappuccino Blended Coffee with whipped creme is:

500 calories!

Wow, it adds up, doesn’t it? Get all the data at the official Starbucks site here.

There are bunches of other sites online that will give you other coffee calorie counts. Here’s 2 of them:

DietFacts Restaurants

CalorieKing Coffee Database

Now, if you want a sweetener that is utterly delicious yet has zero calories and carbs, try Sweet Leaf liquid Stevia flavors. They come in such delectable yumnesses like

  • English Toffee (caramel)
  • Apricot
  • Chocolate Raspberry
  • Valencia Orange
  • Rootbeer

and several more. A few drops is all you need to flavor your coffee (or water, or oatmeal, or yogurt, or …). It’s amazingly tasty….and the best thing is, your weight won’t balloon because of it. :)

ThankYouVeryMuch!
