This morning I had drip coffee at church. Strong and tasty w/ half and half and a lovin’ spoonful of sweetness. I missed my usual 1/3 decaf 2/3 reg, extra room, water first Americano. That won’t happen once I get my own personal espresso machine. Wedding gift anyone? 9 weeks left.
May 10th, 2009 at 11:06 am
I actually stopped drinking coffee a few weeks ago. (started making my teeth yellow.) I have switched to chai tea. I hope this still counts for the contest.

I drink black coffee, and I did get up super early and make my mother her favorite, houseblend hazelnut with extra cream, no sugar. I had to get up early to make her breakfast because we are leaving for my grandmother’s house, who drinks Irish coffee. Hooray for having to drive three hours!!
