"Coffee, the finest organic suspension ever devised." ~Captain Janeway, Star Trek: Voyager
In college, my tastes became more refined, so I sometimes drank chai or coffee instead of just soda. One glorious year I lived right across the street from Margie's, probably the best coffee shop in Greeley. Caffeine was still what got me going in the morning, and was totally necessary for survival.
But after college, I started sleeping more, and coffee began to sit badly with my stomach, so I gave it up. I didn't have coffee again until maybe 2008, after I had my gall bladder removed, but even then, it was by no means a necessity.
Until now. Now it's not just my fuel, it's my spark. No coffee, no Momma. Thank goodness it's cheap, and I can flood it with flavored non-dairy creamer until it tastes good. I agree with Captain Janeway (on many subjects) but especially this.
The reason for the coffee... but so cute! |
Coffee - mommy's little helper! I make mine the night before so all I need to do is flip the switch. I'm dying for one of those keurig thingamagigs. And there is nothing like stopping at Starbucks when out on errands. It's the small things in life...
