It's coffee time.
I can't eat chocolate. So I'm starting a coffee thread! Who's with me? My diet consists of 50% coffee... I drink instant, perculated, and yummy, yummy flat whites from the cafe downstairs. I like coffee so much, that I eat it out of the container, and if I drop it on the floor, down I get... er....
And coffee beans, munch! munch! Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.... Coffee.... *Hears the call of the coffee monster.* A while later... Now, lets convert some infidels!

I only drink cold coffee. With lots of sugar. I like the smell but I don't like what it does to my tummy. So I don't have that "wake up in the morning and get a cup of hot coffee" habit. I recently discovered that coffee mixed with tea (with cream and sugar) and drunk cold is very good. I thought that combination was some kind of joke, but they actually do serve it in restaurants; it's no joke. Now i make it at home.

I cannot survive without coffee. I drink about one pot per day.
That first sip in the morning is akin to heaven (see simple pleasures thread). Most of my co-workers don't even bother talking to me until I've got my cup, and to be honest , that's probably a good thing.

I LOVE coffee! I like it different ways depending on my mood. If I'm in a bad mood, mad, or sad I like my coffee black. If I'm in a good mood, happy I put creamer in it. A bit strange... I also love cappucino... I have no idea how to spell that. My favorite kind is french vanilla... yum yum yum. Has anybody tried chocolate covered coffee beans?? They're sooooooo good!!!

Yay Coffee! Thanks for starting the thread BoP!
I usually like it with sugar and cream and have acquired a taste for brewed. 'haven't tried eating the beans yet but I will today. I have a cheapo espresso maker (it's not pump-action but relis on steam pressure to get going) at home. I don't think I'dget with the program in my line of work without coffee or espresso. Chocolate makes it more enjoyable. Mmmm...

I love iced coffee, coffee ice cream and coffee cake, but I hate normal coffee that everyone else seems to love. Every so often I try normal coffee (white with sugar), but I can't even drink a cup. I will be having iced coffee tomorrow morning cause I have to get up early.

Iced mochas are the best. Coffee, chocolate, and it's cold. Perfect. Oh, that's why I'm getting a job this summer! Oh, that and the LotR DVD. . .

Oh EG...
Does this mean you'll be applying for work as a barista at Starbucks or does this mean you'll just be looking for work to get cash for mochas?

I had better join in on this one!
I love coffee. Has anyone ever tried INSTANT coffee raw? That is a totally weird taste. I have a mantra: I must not drink coffee at night, I must not drink coffee at night... Last time I did that, I rung someone at random from my mobile at 11.30 and it turned out to be Ryan, one of my best boy friends (notice the separation of the words). Needless to say he got a mite cross . So he gave me a mantra. Chuh! Coffee in the morning is, I agree, the best thing in the world. It just lifts you up and you feel a whole lot better. LONG LIVE THE COFFEE!
