Confessions of a Caffeine Addict II

  Good morning and Happy Tuesday, y'all! So much excitement and I am still nursing the first cup! Today's blend is leftover Blonde coffee from Starbucks and Mocha Latte from Kroger. Followers of this blog know that I love my flavored coffee and detest syrups. It's been some time since I blogged, so I figured I would gently remind you of that fact. My first blog post was how I became addicted to coffee. Today, I will tell you how I prefer to drink coffee when I decide to drink it all day long. It looks like one of those days. See below.
The view of the mountains from my back porch. What mountains???
  At any rate, this is how I drink coffee all day... 
  • 6 AM - 11 AM: First half pot since I am the only one who drinks in my house. Although my Mother-In-Law loves it when I make coffee in the mornings. She won't drink any but loves the aroma. I usually make a light flavor or roast. One must break themselves in for the bolder stuff. 
  • 11 AM - 5 PM: This is where I dip into bolder tastes. This is the type of day that I will head to Starbucks and try something new. But I don't do Venti, only Tall. I would eventually like to get to sleep tonight. Speaking of which, I have $10 burning a hole in my Starbucks card. Hrmmmm....
  • 5 PM - 9 PM: Dessert coffee. Here is a recipe from allrecipes.com I would like to try soon. However, since I am out of rum, I will have to settle for a kid-friendly recipe later. Something to do with a hot cocoa mix. 
  Now, mind you, I am not walking around all day with a cup in hand. Well... almost...
