Morning Memories With Folgers

Ever since I was a little girl I loved the smell of coffee brewing in the morning, especially if it was Folgers Coffee. There is something about Folgers signature blend, recognizable red container, and taste that brings back some of my favorite memories Folgers.

Memories like when my mom, Cristina Ferrare, hosted a tv show back in the 90’s for the family channel. She would take me to set with her some mornings. As a kid, it seemed as though we would get there before the sunrise for her hair and makeup which I would always watch so intensely. Not only do I find my mother one of the most beautiful women ever I was fascinated by the whole process and not to mention the makeup trailer was right next to the craft services table where the morning coffee would brew which was, of course, Folgers hints why the smell of Folgers brewing instantly brings back those early morning memories with my mom.

One morning, finally at an age where I understood the reasoning why people drink coffee, I poured myself a cup. I remember taking my first sip and still feeling the morning dew on my skin it was magic. The steam rising from my cup, the sun breaking through the clouds, my hands kept warm from the hot coffee. Ugh, I still try to relive that moment every morning with my cup of coffee!

My boyfriend laughed at me the other day cause I said to him, “I am so excited to go to bed because I get to wake up and have coffee, am I weird for thinking that. He said, ” no he actually was thinking the same and good thing because we will always have a pot brewing in the mornings at our new place.”

“I am so excited to go to bed because I get to wake up and have coffee, am I weird for thinking that?”

He said,

” No, he actually was thinking the same!” ( this is why we work 😉 )

It’s moments like the one I just shared with my boyfriend and memories like the ones I have with my mother that I am so happy I partnered up with Folgers to share my favorite recipe with the brand. Literally, I was like a little kid on Christmas knowing I’m working with a brand that has been a part of my life for so long. Not to mention it’s been an American staple since 1850! It’s inevitable when you hear the commercial you sing along with the theme song, there is just something so nostalgic about that pop of the can, the sound of the coffee dripping, the steam rising and that’s why I keep my coffee simple when it comes to sipping on Folgers with a splash of almond milk and some sugar my morning starts off with a bold brew, incredible memories, and an attitude to take on the day!

The best part of waking up is Folgers® Coffeehouse Blend in my cup!
