Got this Nescafé instant coffee direct mail piece in the mail the other day. I like the packaging and that they gave me free samples! Who doesn’t love free?! I think that their overall look is very playful and appealing… Nice packaging and typography. However I can’t say that I’m head over heels for the actual product. Every time I’ve made it thus far, it’s tasted too weak or too strong, which makes me think that it’s my own fault and not fully understanding how much water to use. I never did like to follow directions…
Also, who are these people that buy instant coffee? Making it the normal way takes too long? Are these people serious coffee fiends just looking for their next quick fix? Or just really crunched for time? I have personally spent way more time attempting to perfect the exact formula on this instant coffee thing than it would have taken me to just brew a whole pot… and by that time I would have had 6 great tasting cups instead of 3 sort of weird tasting cups… Ok, just had to rant about that…
Anyhow, check out some more shots on the next page. And if you’re an instant coffee lover, I’d like to hear from you…

Shark week is here on Discovery Channel! I always look forward to this week, and it’s finally here. Nothing like finding out if a Great White will eat a ham or if a Lemon Shark will go for a prosthetic leg… And will a shark attack a live human or a mechanical turtle? Truly educational! Check out all sorts of great programs involving these amazing animals all this week on Discovery Channel. And in the meantime go to the Shark Week website and find out exactly what kind of shark are you?
Or, go to the next page for some screen shots from their site.
