For all you coffee lovers

I came this while reading this morning:

"Every morning I get up and make myself a cup of coffee. This coffee, once drunk, enlivens me enough to make more coffee, to consume throughout the day."

Makes sense to me, though it's strictly tea for me. It's from Ammon Shea, Reading the OED.

It's so true, all that first cup of coffee does is give me enough energy to make the second.

I usually only have one cup per day and my dh makes it! ;o)

Yep, that about sums it up for me to.

I drink about a 1/2 pot a day!

So true. Allthough I just quit drinking coffee. I've not had a drop in 2 weeks and I'm excited to see if it'll last. I ran out of coffee 2 weeks ago and then two days later I broke the coffee pot so I took it as a sign to stop drinking it.

I'll fess up and say I usually drink about a pot a day. I drink 2/3's in the morning and then mid afternoon have the last cup......It's very addictive.

I pretty much drink coffee from the moment I get out of bed until I go back to bed at night. Other than a glass or two of unsweetened iced tea, coffee is all I drink.

My mom also drinks coffee from the time she gets up til when she goes to bed but she does drink juices, water and other stuff during the day too.

Now, that's what I call a serious coffee drinker.

This winter I got in the habit of drinking more throughout the day, but I don't want as much during the warmer months. I dislike it with any kind of sweetener.

I usually only have a couple cups in the morning. Sometimes fresh, other times reheated from the day before. During winter, I'll usually have a cup when I get to work at 2 PM, but during the summer that switches to tea.

I gave up on sugar in my coffee when I got tired of taking time between the pouring and the drinking. Black coffee all the way!
