JOE
I have a confession….I am addicted!!! Cold, hard and totally addicted. As I am writing this blog, I am surprised that my adrenal glands are even functioning properly. It normally starts very early in the morning. All of the warning signs are there the minute I open my eyes! COFFEE!! I drink it everyday, I drink it alone, I drink it to feel good, I drink it to start my day. (Yes, I also have a coffee machine in my bedroom upstairs)
I know…..coffee is a stimulant. It makes me motivated and focused for about 45 minutes before that voice in my head starts telling me….I want another! Coffee is ruining my life people!! Some might say that coffee is not as destructive as an alcohol addiction…..in my opinion it’s every bit as bad, or worse. And I totally need another cup right now!!
The smell of coffee is just enough to make me smile with glee
Just sit me down with a cup or two and I will live happily
The taste enriches my mouth with every sip I take
No I don’t want cookies, brownies, or a chocolate cake,
I just want the beautiful cup, that I can even make
I can drink cup after cup, even popping a seam
because you know I won’t explode
after drinking such a large load
After I finish my coffee delight
I will be up for the entire night
Dancing, and jumping, and wiggling about
I am purely hyper without a doubt
I am as crazy as can be
Just after I drink my love, the coffee
So throw that tea away and the soda as well
I just want my coffee, can’t you tell?

I take it this means the coffee has chased away your flu? I hope you are feeling well. I know I too like my coffee…it’s taste and aroma are enchanting! I love a blend of French Roast with Sumatran…wow…I think I am going to put some on to brew right now!

One of the only things I love more than coffee is the White Stripes!
Check out their section from Jim Jarmusch’s awesome film ‘Coffee and Cigarrettes’.. in which Jack displays his Tesla coil, and Meg displays her cute smile and total lack of acting skills.

i read this as i sip on my coconut cream flavored coffee. not just the caffeine, but the coffee bean has a similar molecular design as heroin. seriously. at least, that’s what i’ve read, and believe, for some reason. that’s why giving up drinking coke is easier than giving up coffee. i do dig the butterfly fairy coming out of the cup of joe. nice to meecha. here from brian miller.

Hmmm…I have not tried the coconut cream one, sounds delicious!!! I have come to a point when I don’t question my love for coffee anymore…one is allowed some “weakness” in life…and mine will always be coffee!! So happy you came by and thanks for the lovely comment! Nice to meecha too…..Amanda oxo

Wow! If my body would allow me to indulge in coffee all day, I probably would. If I drink more than two cups in a a day, I pay for it with tummy pain. I sympathize with you. When something is enjoyable, it is normal to want more and more.
I like your recipes. I am waiting for a simple one. I’m getting lazy. When I feel like doing some fancy cooking, I know where to find some great recipes.
Your artwork is beautiful and adds depth and color to your blog. I love it!
