I have like the smell of coffee for as long as I can remember but it took some time for the taste to grow on me. But for years I still only drank it on occasion during parties and such. I never understood how or why people NEEDED it.
I made it through college, grad school, and two children without needing the extra caffeine. Now I love my third child. Such a sweet boy. But he is full of…life. When he turned two, I discovered mommy needed caffeine and although he grew out of it...I never did.
Then I added my fourth child. Okay don't freak out. I know I don't have a fourth child. But writing has become as consuming to my life as adding another child and let me tell you. When I am up at 5:30am writing. Coffee isn't more than just a good idea.
Yes, I gave into the dark side but what can I say but I love it here. I look forward to my morning cup. I think wonderful happy thoughts of how perfect the day will go as I sip the Irish cream enhanced brew.
If you are ever in Arizona, stop by and I make enough to share.
What is you favorite coffee? If Coffee isn’t your thing, what is your favorite way to wake up in the morning?
