how the vikings got so much done before noon

It used to be that I would only drink Starbucks coffee, both at home and on the go.  And then one day I met a man that changed my life forever, and that man was Trader Joe.  He wooed me with his cheap prices and high quality, dangling organic products in front of me.  But it wasn't until I stumbled upon his coffee that I knew he was the one for me.  

I've had the pleasure to sample many of his organic, shade-grown, fair-trade coffees since we've gotten to know each other.  The colourful canisters, and the ever changing brews kept me coming back for more.  Recently when I was shopping I felt our relationship was getting a bit routine.  I needed to shake things up.  So I did what anyone would do... I went Swedish.

From the people who brought you Ikea, Baby Bjorn & a third of the NHL starting line comes Trader Joe's Scandinavian Blend coffee.  It's light and smooth like an Ektorp living room, but with the caffeine punch of the Sedin twins.  Basically it's the perfect start to your morning!

 

 

(please note: I'm can neither confirm nor deny that the Sedins enjoy Trader Joe's Scandinavian Blend.  Their ability to score goals may not be directly related to drinking coffee.  I can only confirm that both this coffee & these hockey stars originate from the same place.  You are welcome to draw your own conclusions.)
