what's in my cup....

Although I am more of a tea drinker as of late, I still enjoy an occasional dessert drink.

We picked up some coconut coffee beans from La Vida Mocha, a local indie coffee shop both Don and I enjoy.  The beans have bits of coconut mixed in with them.  The smell and taste are incredible!

If you live in the area, you should definitely try them out.  I am going to send some home for my family.

It is always a good idea to support local shops that you love but even more so when the owners are as wonderful as Burak and Irem are.

We recently learned that Burak's lovely wife, Irem has returned to Turkey to be medically treated for 8 brain tumors.  I can't imagine the pain they are enduring.  Burak is still here in North Carolina running their shop.  There is a fund raiser for Irem here.  You can donate as little as a dollar or as much as you like.  

I have decided to use our little Etsy shop to raise funds for her.

All of our shop income will be donated to her until she has reached her goal.

Please help us help this little family.

They have two lovely little twin girls the same age as our little Bella.

Our hearts go out to this family!

I am sure they would appreciate your prayers.

Love,
