My Life Joys

When stressed, down, or feeling a need to pamper myself a little, one thing comes into my mind… COFFEE. Yeah, okay I admit I am an addict, a COFFEE ADDICT that is. Instant coffee, brewed, freshly brewed, branded or not as long as it is the caffeine rich drink that smells like mornings in a far away paradise, I’ll take it.

Same as this one morning when I was stressing myself of some entrepreneurial tasks and had to take a break. Good heavens, there is Figaro *sound effects here, special effect: eyes glowing alà animé* My mind is crazily imagining an oasis in a desert. They have a coffee shop at the 2nd floor of The Medical City Strip along Ortigas Ext.

With a long list of choices, my sudden lack of creativity had me ordering a latte (coffee and milk) and Pasta Arabiatta (pasta with a spicy sauce). I said lack of creativity because I’d usually order the house specialty. If there is one more ingredient in my Figaro coffee that is making it taste wonderful is the company’s commitment to making the Barako coffee alive.

This Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program should make every Filipino proud that there is a company that aside from selling and growing their coffee, they continue a legacy, a story of the Filipino coffee.
