Coffee

Well I haven't posted in a while, and I thought this was a good subject for me to post about.

I have recently begun drinking coffee. I have never been a coffee drinker. I drank a little of it a few years ago, but haven't really been craving it. What prompted me to start drinking was two-fold.

1. I was at the office one morning last week and really wanted something to drink other than bottled water. I went to the kitchen and there really wasn't much there except coffee. So I decided to go ahead and fix a pot. I put 3 creamers and 3 packs of sugar in a cup and then poured the coffee. It tasted ok, better than I usually make, so I drank it.

2. I also have realized that I am living in a coffee world, so I am conforming. Maybe it's peer pressure, maybe it is the fact that many places I go the only hot thing to drink is coffee. On cold days it is nice to have something hot to drink, so coffee will fit the bill.

To some, the coffee I drink is sissy coffee. I can't drink it black. I don't know how anyone can handle that flavor. It is terrible. BUT, with some cream and sugar it tastes ok. Someone said the other day, "So you drink some a little bit of coffee with your cream." That is pretty much the case, I drink it with a lot of cream and a lot of sugar.

So now I am officially a coffee drinker. Life will never be the same again.
