  • Difference between: coffee and decaf coffee

    Okay folks, small blog update before I get into this one.

    I started a new job this week. 

    I’ve transitioned from being a freelance writer on the side, to being an actual, full-time, writer and editor for a well known marketing company. This is awesome.

    In lieu of the big changes happening in my life, I thought it was time to take a gander at the Difference Between category on this blog – the one I post in the most frequently.

    I started this blog in April of 2013. (Three year anniversary!) My first Difference Between post was in July of 2013, on Russian dressing and Thousand Island dressing. I’ve done a Difference Between post once a week, with few exceptions, for two years and nine months. 

    And I think it’s time to switch it up.

    I have an idea of what I want to take my once-a-week post place, but I’m not sure enough to announce it just yet.

    In the meantime! Feel free to continue emailing me with Difference Between post ideas, because I’ll probably pick it up at some point.

    Here’s the last Difference Between post for awhile: coffee versus decaf coffee.

  • Difference between: cappuccino and latte

    Definitions:

    • Cappuccino: a hot beverage consisting of espresso coffee and steamed milk, often served with powdered cinnamon and topped with whipped cream.
    • Latte: hot espresso with steamed milk, usually topped with foamed milk.

    And since they both include espresso…

    • Espresso: a strong coffee prepared by forcing live steam under pressure, or boiling water, through ground dark-roast coffee beans.

  • Food history: coffee

    This piece needs to begin with the acknowledgement of the extensive timeline of the history of coffee, of which I could not begin to cover the entirety of here. There is in fact an entire book on the history of coffee, which is on my to-read list.

    Therefore, I have decided to do something a little bit different with this Food History post.
