  • So much for trying to like coffee again!!!

    Picture this...  Me, hating coffee (Love the smell, hate the taste)... but I thought, maybe if I drink coffee I will try to get up early and survive by using caffeine to keep me awake!!   So, I let dh (dear husband) make the coffee so it is ready Monday for both of us to drink early in the morning. 

    1)mistake one, ds (dear son) tried to set the timer, but I bought a "cheap one" and it was late in starting so dh didn't even get coffee.

    2) I pour myself a cup to take with me for my errands, add plenty of creamer and sugar and head out for the morning.   I take my first sip  *GASP- SPUTTER-CHOKE*   ok, it tastes like Tar with an aftertaste but I need the caffeine so I'll go ahead and drink it...

    3) Did I mention I drank it on an empty stomach???? So halfway through my favorite place (NOT) the commissary I realize that my stomach is appealing my choice of caffeine!!!  Sigh... but I suffer through and get home.

    4) I clean out the coffee pot and realize that dh nearly filled the filter with coffee (Ok, maybe I exaggerated a bit, but there was a LOT of coffee grounds in there)... so maybe that's why my body reminded me of the coffee that whole day!!!

    5)I don't think I will EVER drink coffee again!!!  At least until I make it using one fourth the amount of coffee!!

     

     

    Sorry, I would post more often, but my dc (dear children) keep me running!!  I wouldn't want to bore you if I don't really have much to say here.

    First, I feel like such a dork because was trying to post a comment under Xanga instead of Anonymous! I didn't see that up there! That's why it kept trying to get me to log in.

    I really like coffee, but it has to be made the way I like it...not too strong and not too weak...like Goldilocks...with a little splash of half & half.

    Pam, I can't drink coffee on an empty stomach, either. You must have been miserable.

    Mercy, LOL! I forgot to put my name! I need to go to bed.

    Coffee is blech!  I don't know how you got past that first taste.  LOL  I can't get past the smell to taste it.  It just smells awful to me.

    Hmmm...personally, I'm rather partial to coffee.  It was a good 'ol cup of black joe that got me through those early morning sessions with Jeff Baldwin this past week. 

    Rock on!

    Pepsi works nearly as well, I guess I'll have to go back to that "standby" when I'm tired!!!    I wish I did like coffee, but by the time I add enough creamer and sugar it's too sweet and the coffee is still too bitter for me....  sigh...

    *Blech!* it smells AMAZING. But never bothered to taste it. I had a bad experience with Rockstar so I'll just stick with Coca-Cola. Man that stuff is gross (rockstar)........

    Coffee is good. Black coffee is best.

    Opinions.... Opinions!!   

    I did try it again with the coffee being a little weaker and I still can't get over the taste...  so if you hear a "snap"  "fizzle".... you know I'm getting my caffeine the only way I can stand it....  can you say  "Pepsi"???? hehehe

  • The_Cranston
    *Ack!* after my experience with Pepsi One I'll never be able to drink Pepsi again......
