Painted - glad to hear you are out of harm's way! Also that coffee flavor sounds delicious!

it's so good! and flavored coffees have no calories, carbs, fat, sodium, or anything!

You can really give your coffee a nice kick just by adding a few drops of almond essence, or cinnamon essence, (or raspberry, or orange, or hazlenut, or vanilla, or whatever takes your fancy) to the water when you pour it into the machine. Then add cream/soymilk/whatever you'd normally add, and sweetener if you take it.

I like this WAY more than flavoured syrups, myself, because I don't much like my coffee sweet - but if you want the sweetness, you can always add splenda or whatever afterwards.
