  • Mark Thomas · 1 year ago
    I like my coffee with a bit of half and half. If there's no half and half then with some milk. If there's no milk then just black. If there's no coffee then I'll just drink a Yoohoo.

    I can't handle the hazelnut cream stuff. Makes me a little nauseous...

    I don't drink coffee. I could never get to where I liked the nasty bitter taste.

    Now if we're talking espresso's I'm in.
  • Jam · 1 year ago
    Dude I quit drinking coffee 14 months ago. Caffeine was a bad addiction for me. Now I drink lots of tea, all decaffeinated. It's a lot better.
  • Carole Turner · 1 year ago
    black, Strong ans sweet.

    P.S. Community Coffee over Starbucks, community is fair trade.
  • Jason · 1 year ago
    I like to tell my friends who put that coffee mate crap in their coffee... you might as well put that in warm water and call it a day

    strong and black. that's what they call REAL coffee.

    come back to the dark side.

    Ok, so I'm a wuss too.

    What? It tastes good!
  • Ian Jones · 1 year ago
    The guitarist in my church asked me the profound theological question of how I like my coffee. My response could only be; I like my coffee like I like my women... hot, and in church (that's not supposed to be dirty but it still sounds that way).

    I like just a tiny bit of coffee with my French Vanilla...no...I didn't say that wrong.
  • hodge · 1 year ago
    I don't drink coffee but if I did it would have to be sweet.
  • steve · 1 year ago
    Tall pikes place. 2 raw sugars, half and half....and I just started adding cinnamon because I read in a health magazine it is a "powerful antioxidant" :)
  • Phillip McCart · 1 year ago
    Lot's of sugar and a dash of milk. Like, I mean a lot of sugar. I actually prefer a latte.
  • Molly Moore · 1 year ago
    Straight up BLACK.
  • Todd · 1 year ago
    If you're adding that junk that means that Buckhead needs to improve their coffee. If you've ever enjoyed tasty black java then slipping some artificial flavoring into your coffee means something is wrong with the bean, the roast or the brew.

    Remedy this situation immediately. Not only are you harming yourself but you're harming the planet when you dispose of those nasty, plastic coffeemate containers.
  • Maren · 1 year ago
    I am guilty of the Coffee-Mate addiction as well. I actually got excited when the "Holiday Flavors" came out.
  • Jason · 1 year ago
    I share the same addiction sir!

    I learned to drink coffee in college when I was a jumper for UPS working for a woman who's name might have been Helga, or Olga, or something and when I first got a coffee and put creamer I thought she was going to force me to wear a dress - so I quickly learned to drink it black as the darkest night - nothing like a little intimidation to motivate you.

    Nowadays, in general, if it's a good quality coffee than the darker the better. However, like Todd says - if I'm drinking the free stuff at the office then load it up with sweetner and creamer! Of course, if I'm doing a cold coffee then I doctor it up to the point of almost no recognition.
  • samburke · 1 year ago
    I used to drink it straight black... but now I have to have sugar and 2% milk in it... I guess I feel I can drink more of it then.
  • Marv Nelson · 1 year ago
    I used to be simply a little half and half...but NOW I love fresh ground Starbucks coffee with Creme Brule Coffeemate!! Dude, if you try the Creme Brule, you'll NEVER do that French vanilla anymore!
  • Tymm · 1 year ago
    frozen and drizzled with caramel
  • Brandy · 1 year ago
    I drink it with milk. And chocolate. And without the coffee.

    Oh right, that's hot chocolate.
  • Tracy · 1 year ago
    Flavored coffee is my staple. With like a 1/4 cup whole milk. And two sugar packets.

    And today? Today I added some honey. Livin' on the wild side, I am.
  • Doug · 1 year ago
    Blonde and very, very sweet. However, my woman is brunette and I wouldn't have it any other way.
  • Jenn · 1 year ago
    The South is changing you. Next thing you know, you'll be droppin' Y'ALL's, giving directions to Peachtree, and craving Sweet Tea and chick-fil-a.

    The South is good. Pollen is bad, but the South, it is good.
  • Brandi · 1 year ago
    Touch of cream/half&half/PLAIN Coffee Mate--whatever unsweetened creamish-like additive happens to be available.

    And when I say a touch, I mean just a touch. Barely a splash. A titch. Basically I just threaten my coffee with the creamer.
  • Scott Gaglardi · 1 year ago
    Medium Grande Black. When I was younger I wanted to drink coffee and the only way my parents would let me was if it had NO milk and NO sugar. I think they thought the taste would disgust me and I'd give it up but it backfired...I'm hooked on black coffee.
  • phillip · 1 year ago
    I take mine with half and half and some sugar. I'm not into that flavored vanilla stuff.
  • JVo · 1 year ago
    By the pot.
  • Naomi · 1 year ago
    man, I have never even tasted coffee of any sort.

    I kinda wish I did. Seems like a nice thing to do.

    Just cant get past the smell.
  • Matt · 1 year ago
    I take mine as a Diet Coke. Great way to start the morning!
  • gillie · 1 year ago
    I think they put crack in that stuff (Coffee Mate). I got totally addicted to its delicious creamy texture. I started using more and more and more. I think at one point I was putting about a half a cup in a large coffee, so I had to kick the habit.

    Now I'm hooked on Red Bull.
  • rebeccamoon · 1 year ago
    i like sugar and decaf coffee with my cream.
    but no coffeemate. fat free half & half.
    or real half & half, if i'm feeling deviant.
  • Michele · 1 year ago
    Ah yes, Coffeemate. It's my, I can't get to Starbucks right now, but this will do in a pinch, go-to guy. My refrigerator looks like a stock room for Coffeemate and International Delights. Seriously, that stuff is awesome! I love the White Chocolate Hazelnut kind.
  • Red Wine Gums · 1 year ago
    Coffee is of the devil. I honestly don't get what ye all like about it. It's horrible stuff. I fall into the bracket that doesn't like the taste of caffeine whether it's in Coke or coffee. Can't stand the stuff.

    Are ye all going to pray for my deliverance now?

  • JWidney · 1 year ago
    I also like my coffee like I like my women - strong and black. Although my wife is more latte than black as well. I used to like half and half in mine but about a year ago I started smoking cigars and now I only like it black. The cigars changed my taste buds.
  • Karen · 1 year ago
    Like I like my men...Dsrk, hot,and a little bit of Soy. I use that line all the time, too.
  • Karen · 1 year ago
    DARK!!!
  • mark · 1 year ago
    I like to think that at any moment I may drop to the ground dead because of the clogged arteries I may have due to the amount of cream & sugar I like in my coffee...grande coffee with room (room enough for me to put a mac truck in my cup if I want to).

    I know I'm a wuss! What can I say, I like my coffee like I like my woman...a little tan and really sweet!
  • alex mclean · 1 year ago
    I too am a wuss. First off I don't really drink coffee, and when I do it's like half foo-foo creamer and half coffee, with some sugar if available...
  • Heather · 1 year ago
    i think you're whitty.

    strong and black.

    hahahaha

    and I prefer green tea to coffee.
    3 honeys and 3 splendas

    I drink tea. Black, with Honey.
  • Heather Tamburello · 1 year ago
    Give me espresso with just a little bit of sugar to cut the edge. Yeah baby...
  • Tammy Marcelain · 1 year ago
    I drink my coffee with anything except a "nutty flavor"
    My favorite is half and half with raw sugar, but second favorite is in the blue bottle you are holding, Coffee Mate Vanilla, yummy.

    I drink alot of tea also, no bags please, only loose leaf, then I add a packet of Stevia to that, dreamy.
  • Stray Dog · 1 year ago
    Black is the only acceptable way to go. Turn back to the dark side.

    And the correct quote is:

    I like my coffee like I like my women: bitter.
  • b/ · 1 year ago
    I say the same thing, "Just like my women, strong and black." Most people have to respond "looks like you poured the cream and forgot to add the coffee."

    But I one week every three to four months where I put stuff in my coffee. And then I'm back to strong and black for another three to four months. Its random. But for the most part I like the spoon to stand up, you know, that point just before you can chew it.
  • Paul J. · 1 year ago
    Coffee is almost sacramental to me. Especially since my father died. When I was little, the main time I got to spend with my dad was early in the morning...he'd read the paper and have coffee. So I'd sit with him...and way too early in my life, he would pour me a cup.
    To this day, I love coffee, and I love the newspaper. And I miss my dad.
    Oh...2 or 3 sugars, with half and half. Just like dad.
  • Jake · 1 year ago
    Black...dark black...strong black...BEAUTIFULLY BLACK like my daughter! http://www.facedownworship.com/daughter.html
  • Rachel · 1 year ago
    It depends on where I am. I'll drink it black I'm at Shades of Brown in Tulsa. Usually I get some frou-frou drink if I'm at Starbucks. But, by far, my favorite coffee is from Fido (or Bongo Java) in Nashville. Never tried it black there, but their specialty drinks are killer.

    I guess my tea habits are more consistent: black tea, flavored creamer, and a bit o' sugar.
  • rebecca · 1 year ago
    Coffee,

    Earl Grey, now that's the ticket. Teaspoon of sugar, level, not rounded.
  • Kimie · 1 year ago
    i don*t.
    i don*t like it.
    =)
  • DJ · 1 year ago
    I have steadily moved away from the "Coffee Mates" of the world because as I have become more of a coffee snob I feel it gets in the way of my good stuff.

    So I do a bit of sugar and a bit of half and half, just to calm it down a little.

    Side note: the new Pikes Place Roast at every Starbucks is the bomb!
  • John Ireland · 1 year ago
    with just a bit of creamer - half&half, skim...i'm flexible
  • Craig · 1 year ago
    Black - Oh also thanks for this post about coffee. I was trying to decide what domain to buy for my weekly domain purchase. I am the proud new owner of mydailydrip.com
  • Robin · 1 year ago
    Don't like the real stuff usually...if I do, it's LOADED with sugar and cream. I guess I like it like I like my men: sweet, lightly tanned, and rich. Ha.
    However, I do frequent St.Arbucks almost daily for my usual: grande iced white mocha nonfat/no whip. :-)
  • Stephen Barry · 1 year ago
    Sweet and blonde.
    Just like I like my women.
  • Akash · 1 year ago
    No coffee for me.
  • djByron · 1 year ago
    As to darkening the color... Wean yourself gradually like a pup from the teet.

    PS: I would have loved to be at one of those instances where you said that to a waitress! That's awesome!!
  • Zach · 1 year ago
    One of Three: Hot Americano (early morning drink), Double Tall Nonfat Latte (if I am hitting sbux around 10am), and my 5pm work kickstart (Triple Espresso over ice)


    At Home so my most normal coffee experience... French Pressed and black!
  • Katie P · 1 year ago
    Dark roast with lost of cream and raw sugar.

    Like my men; rich, tan & sweet.

    Not as cool as strong and black, but I tried ;)
  • lynse leanne · 1 year ago
    depends on the day....some times straight up black...other days lots of cream and more sugar.
  • kristie · 1 year ago
    3 shots of espresso and fill the rest with steamed milk... its the best!
  • Isaac Downing · 1 year ago
    No shame in the cream game.

    2 Creams, no sugar for that perfect caramel color.
  • Charlotte · 1 year ago
    I love your site!! I found you through Travis and I always get a laugh. Today was great!! My husband loves coffee almost as much as he loves me. His big thing is that he fell in love with me because of the way I smelled(I worked at Starbucks),drinkin' coffe next to a girlfriend who smells like coffee and something chocolate for dessert-yeah I had him at Hello!!
    Anyway, welcome to GA I know it is better because of you and your sweet family. Oh! and I agree with Aaron-your family picture ROCKS.

    Answer to your question-I don't drink coffee-been pregnant three times in the last four years and Tea is just the safer way!
  • Jeremy · 1 year ago
    I do the Coconut Creamer from Coffeemate... you haven't truly lived till you've mixed coconut and coffee. Seriously.

    No, seriously.
  • Paloma · 1 year ago
    The trick is to sprinkle cinnamon in with the grounds before brewing. Then you get the yummy flavor without the weird dusty texture!

    Beyond that... I like it brewed strong, then with kindofalotof sugar, and some half&half. Lots of flavor all around!

    The flavored creamers taste weird to me most of the time and I think they have a waxy texture/aftertaste.
  • Melissa Merkel · 1 year ago
    I say that I like my coffee like a hot milkshake. Very sweet, very creamy.

    I prefer the Hazlenut creamer...but I wasn't a coffee drinker until I came to work at Buckhead. Now, daily brewed Caribou Coffee waiting for me?

    No brainer why I now have a caffeine addiction at this point.
  • Marlow · 1 year ago
    dude...c'mon...you gotta be kidding right? this is a joke I hope.

    drink coffee black for two weeks and you will never go back.
  • tony sheng · 1 year ago
    no coffee but i keep meaning to start. i keep meaning to start drinking coffee and beer.... oh well eventually...

    but orange juice early and late in the day - tropicana pure premium.
  • Emily · 1 year ago
    I drink my coffee with enough cream and sugar and chocolate that it no longer tastes like coffee.
  • beccity · 1 year ago
    Don't like coffee and can't handle the caffeine, but my hot cocoa is rather complicated.
    1 heaping spoon ghiradelli's chocolate mocha
    1 heaping spoon nestle rich chocolate cocoa
    1 heaping spoon land o'lakes raspberry cocoa (they only come in single serve packets, so about half of one)

    Add to boiling water in favorite Hello Kitty mug, add dollop of milk for creaminess instead of boiled water taste.

    Take to work and be so busy I forget to drink it, then pour slightly sour smelling concoction down drain at end of day.

    Seriously, it tastes absolutely wonderful, when I can remember to drink it.
  • Karl Fisher · 1 year ago
    regular coffee:
    black, from a press pot

    flavored coffee:
    a little sugar, from a press pot

    espresso:
    breve mocha - regular milk's got nothing on that...

    so there.
  • Allen Arnn · 1 year ago
    Half and half, one pink packet and four sugars in a grande. I'm a wuss too.

    Sometimes I even put extra sugar in a Starbucks mocha.
  • Rita · 1 year ago
    strong and with 2 teaspoons of sugar and heavy cream. Yes, heavy cream. It's awful for you, but in as much as I drink coffee (which is once a week at best), I think I can get away with it!
  • brody · 1 year ago
    You could always change "strong and black" to "cold and bitter" but that doesnt seem like heather either.

  • Tina · 1 year ago
    I like my coffee, half cream and half splinda. I am a wuss also b/c I love flavored creams.
  • C.C. aka LorelaiCC · 1 year ago
    I have a huge coffee cup that holds something like half a pot of coffee to which I add 4 teaspoons of Splenda and 2 teaspoons of creamer.
  • April · 1 year ago
    I, like several others, like my coffee loaded with cream and sugar. Starbucks is a favorite and I always get some variety of Frappuccino.
  • Chris · 1 year ago
    I used to drink wuss coffee, but I have slowly come to appreciate good coffee, and hate to waste good coffee by putting crap in it. But it really does depend on the coffee. At the most, I put a small amount of half and half, and maybe two sugar in the raws. At the most.
  • Lisa · 1 year ago
    1. Komodo dragon Beans from Starbucks

    2. Ground fresh on "fine" setting every morning

    3. 2 1/2 T per cup marking on coffeemaker, not actual cup.

    4. Poured as soon as it is finished being brewed

    5. Ungodly amounts of powdered coffeemate original
    powdered creamer until is is a lovely shade of caramel like I wish I was. No generics, they are sweeter.

    6. One pack of splenda.

    7. Enjoyed before eating breakfast if possible

    8. In pretend starbucks cups with lid from grocery store, b/c I hate dishes.
  • Mark Jaffrey · 1 year ago
    First thing in the morning:
    two cups of Kenya AA made in cafetiere (French Press) with filtered water, one sachet of Splenda and a drop of milk.

    Any other time:
    A tall Americano, only just white, with two Splendas, from Cafe Greco, Road 9, Maadi, Cairo, Egypt. Nothing else comes close, not even your Starbucks stuff.

  • Shaun · 1 year ago
    Hey Man,

    Artificial creamers are terribly unhealthy man. Most of them have hydrogenated oils and other wild ingredients that were never intended to be in your body.

    Go black and never look back. (or put whole ingredients in your coffee like real milk, soy milk, etc.)
  • Matt · 1 year ago
    DON'T DO IT MAN! stay black... stay true...
  • nate davis · 1 year ago
    ha...seems to be the day for coffee post. I asked this morning what brew folks like.

    I started with lots of sugar and flavored creamer. As I go, my coffee is getting darker and way less sweet. I still prefer flavored creamer over sugar and basic milk.
  • Anna · 1 year ago
    I'm 21 years old and I still don't like coffee. I have tried, believe me. My Scandinavian heritage dictates that I should take it strong and black. :) But I like nothing but fancy-schmancy Frappuccinos and the like. I wish I could develop a taste for it.
  • Brian · 1 year ago
    With lots of half and half and sugar. I tried to cut back when we were doing the Weight Watchers thing. Tried to go with one tablespoon of sugar and one of half and half. Didn't work. Gotta have two of each.

    Once when we were fasting, I knew if I didn't drink coffee in the morning that I would be a zombie with an intense headache by 2pm so I tried it black. Made me want to vomit. Better to have the headache and take a nap in my office.
  • Erica M. · 1 year ago
    AHHH this is my first blog comment!
    I am more of a hot tea girl. I drink hot tea for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Green tea and hibiscus cranberry are my favorites.
    I have never liked the flavor of coffee.
  • Samuel · 1 year ago
    Its got to be black, fresh and from a french press...A good quality roast (no Starbucks!!) is essential, but I'll settle for almost anything if it isn't flavored and if it is fresh.
  • Bryan Sheppard · 1 year ago
    I like mine very strong and very black...I am mostly an expresso drinker...no need to water that good flavor down..
  • Stephanie · 1 year ago
    I like to actually taste the beans...so nothing goes in mine.
  • Steve · 1 year ago

  • Bobby Williams · 1 year ago
    Because you need another comment about coffee.....I take mine BLACK with a touch of sugar...kicks you in the face, then makes you smile!

  • Matt Huber · 1 year ago
    I work at Starbucks and drink straight espresso.
    I go home, put on women's underwear and pour tons of Coffee Mate into my coffee. French Vanilla.

    Maybe I don't wear women's underwear.
    But maybe I do.

    As Jars puts it, "you ask me about creamer, you ask me about sugar. I tell you those things make me sick."
    Unless it's after dinner, of course. Then a little of each. "In my Ooh, ooh, ooh, good coffee, strong coffee."
  • Michele Bennett · 1 year ago
    cream and lots of honey....cause i want my coffee to be sweet like me. :O) ha ha.
  • Robin · 1 year ago
    Gotta agree with Todd, It's all in the quality. At work, when they make tar, YES cream and sugar, at home with my sumatra, black. Mmmmm
  • Nick · 1 year ago
    Never got into coffee, I was always a Coke-a-holic, now I've kicked that habit.
    Tried Starbuck's a couple of months back, not too bad, but it was loaded with milk and sugar, so I guess I take mine with a lot of milk and sugar.
  • Susan · 1 year ago

  • Elissa · 1 year ago
    Typically I like my coffee the color of my skin (oh, and I'm white... VERY white) except when I'm drinking it with dessert in which case I like it strong & black... which apparently means I like my dessert coffee like I like my men... sweet!?

    My mom used to tell people she liked her coffee like she liked her men "light and weak". It especially used to tick my brother off, because he fits both criteria! :)

    My husband likes coffee, period. Light, dark, cold, hot. I'd sooner run out of food here than coffee...and I'd hear less complaints if I ran out of food.

    i like my coffee how you used to like your woman.
    but I do use the caramel creamer when the green room treats me to it.
  • ruthanne · 1 year ago
    if your making it at home black with 2 sugars - if there is creamer available i do enjoy that but don't need it. At starbuck i lean in the other direction. Quad Venti Non-fat Toffeenut mocha not whip.

    thats what i like - judge if you must -

    Los - just found out we have some mutual friends!

    I'm not supposed to drink coffee right now, but usually I like french vanilla creamer and sugar. Just enough so it doesn't really taste like coffee anymore.

    My goodness you have some truly picky coffee drinker readers - I am a Texan my coffee in the morning is black, strong and early. Later on in the day - I might slop a tablespoon of real cream into it for sustenance. Coffee isn't for wusses - cowboy up 'los! (that was all malarkey - I do drink my coffee black most of the time but when I'm out someplace - a bit of cream and kahlua doesn't hurt my feelers either!)

    maybe someday i will enjoy strong and black too...

    Oddly enough, kind sir, I was rummaging through the "coffee supplies" we have in our office at the church today and found the exact same ingredients. Usually I'm just a one-packet-of-splenda-guy, but found myself thoroughly enjoying the french vanilla.

    I use Coffee Mate (liquid only!), but I can't stand that French Vanilla flavor, if it's all there is I use just a drop. "Vanilla Chai Spice" is my favorite flavor, or as I like to call it, "heaven in a coffee cup." Hazelnut is also really good. I use a bit of that and two CUBES of sugar.

    I really like the dunkin' donuts french vanilla, white chocolate mudslide creamer (liquid only), with a little redi whip on top...it's my dessert.

    Starbucks, it's always a white chocolate mocha or a honey frappuchino.

    1 Tbsp of sugar and lots of French Vanilla creamer (liquid only)

    I am all about Hazlenut creamer and splenda. Yummy!
  • a.m.g. · 1 year ago
    ohhh how i love coffee! :) lately, i go straight for a latte. 2% or whole... whatever is the standard where i am. with a touch of hazelnut syrup. if i'm drinking drip coffee - just a little splash of cream. no sugar. i love how many people have responded!
  • JSR · 1 year ago
    Low fat creamer no sugar. French Vanilla? Yuck. I'm from GA and that ain't no GA thing.

    YOU'RE a wuss???

    Chemo look my love of coffee away. :(

    I'm now an uber-wussy tea drinker. But I don't put my pinky finger up when I drink it. So there!

    Usually take my coffee black, but I changed jobs a year ago and now WORK for Nestle selling Coffeemate, so I try all the 29 different flavors and we just came out with three new ones:Tiramisu, Italian Sweet Creme, and Hazelnut Biscotti. Love the thoughts on the blog. Im a big fan of the ragamuffin gospel, love your transparency!
  • angela · 1 year ago
    i worked for st.arbucks for 2 years sooooo i drink my coffee black, BUT i have to get something to accent the taste of it and bring all of the flavors out, so i always have to order or grab something to bring the notes to play on my tongue. anyways ......

    yeah

    I've given over to the dark side as well and I'm a CoffeeMate fan as well although mine is of the Hazlebut variety.
  • Patty · 1 year ago
    No coffeemate. Evil stuff once I read the ingredients.
    Now I stick to stevia and soy milk. Mmmmm.
  • bigdaddyjer · 1 year ago
    I can't get the consistency right with Coffeemate. Give me some half and half and a little Splenda. BTW ... that stuff will make you a Fat Ragamuffin.
  • Brandi · 1 year ago
    with LOTS of that stuf.....like a WHOLE LOT of that stuff.....and maybe some sugar in the mix
  • tom · 1 year ago
    starbucks is the mcdonalds of coffee. nothing good comes from them.
    coffee based- dark roast. Black as the ace of spades
    expresso based- breve mocha w/ an extra shot.
  • Renee · 1 year ago
    Don't even know if you care anymore;) but i have to agree that it MUST have something to do with your beans! Get BETTER coffee! Try www.landofathousandhillscoffee.com !! Fair trade and it helps the Rwandan widows that survived the genocide, and its just straight up really good coffee.
    Besides that I am almost taking it black, very partial to half and half, but the color of my coffee has to be dark, and one level sugar.
  • randy · 1 year ago
    nice, glad to see someone has some good cheep taste as well
  • gretchen · 1 year ago
    I love that stuff-have you tired the fat free version...it's really good. Also, the sugar free french vanilla is good if you can handel artificial sweetners. I say-go for it with the delicious creamer. In fact, I might make this my next love to love it blog entry.
  • Heidi Reed · 1 year ago
    Just found you thru MercyMe. Such a cool blog!

    Anyway, I load my coffee with that crap too. Plus a packet of Splenda. My fav flavor is the blueberry cobbler. Yumm!

    I don't drink it. Does that make me more of a wuss than you?
  • pinkcamojeep · 1 year ago
    I like my coffee in a cup.

    Actually, I only drink it in the winter - it
    keeps me moving when I'm in "hibernation mode"
    and I prefer it with hazelnut coffeemate. yum.
    And it's probably closer to the color of Whittaker Woman's skin than yours is, Los.
  • Crystal Renaud · 1 year ago
    liking 'em darker and darker these days.
  • jill · 1 year ago
    I read your blog every so often and have never commented, but I'm a sucker for feeling like the person is typing to ME with those "hey you's."

    But I digress... My mother saw adding anything to your coffee as a sign of weakness, thus I inherited this particular taste. I am, however, not above ordering a nice iced latte or caramel macchiato at Starbucks should the mood strike.

    (Now, I'm glad I chose to comment in such a profound way... Ha!)
  • Jack · 1 year ago
    Most of my best memories revolve around a cup. My wife says I'm a coffee snob. I drink it anyway possible 24/7. I prefer fresh beans, fresh ground, Black. But I'll take whatever your pouring!

    By the way, we are beginning the adoption journey! Love your thoughts on your son's birth mom on his 2nd B-day!

    I'd like to thank Scott Hodge and The Orchard personally for addicting me to coffee. Yes I'd experimented now and then with a little Latte here or Mocha there. But all hell will break loose now if my kids don't get into their classes in time for me to head back to the coffee bar for a cup of chocolate sauce, steamed milk, whipped cream and a little bit of coffee.
  • Racer · 1 year ago
    Sugar Free Vanilla Caramel creamer...mmm...heaven on earth. Unless we're going to Starbucks. Then my most fave is the Iced Caramel Macchiato. Not mixed up. Because then you go from super sweet to creamy milk to the taste that is espresso....deliciousness.
  • Chadwick · 1 year ago
    I can't drink the stuff. Coffee is nothing but burnt water to me.

    But a Starbucks Chai Tea Latte - now we're talkin'.

    You know - I realized just now when I just wrote that out, that somewhere along the way I lost my manhood. :)

    Time to cowboy up - Coffee...Strong and Black from now on. Thanks for giving me my manhood back.

    Hello webmaster. I think you could also make more of it through a bigger exposure about \"  I’m A Wuss\". Perhaps you can have some kahlua chocolates ingredients.
