Congratulations!

Kenya coffee in my cup this overcast morning.

Oh, love the Pink, dreams.

The grey is gone, and I'm sitting here drinking some diet coke, working away and wanting to be outside in the sun.

dreams · 04-27-2014, 05:32 PM

Thanks.

Waiting for a fresh cup of coffee while doing laundry and making a snack. I was craving a hard-boiled egg, sliced apples, and chocolate chip rice cakes.

Third mug of tea.

I posted after my first mug of tea, but it didn't show up. I probably hit the "Forum Jump" button instead of the "Post Quick Reply" button. The kind of mistake I'm most likely to make before I've had a tea.

CRussel · 04-28-2014, 12:40 PM

Peet's Major Dickason's coffee, with my mug of Anniversary Breakfast Blend tea waiting. This Contigo mug keeps the tea too hot to drink for quite a while. More than long enough to enjoy my coffee.

ProfCrash · 04-28-2014, 12:43 PM

Pu erh. Serving number three, or maybe four...

cromag · 04-28-2014, 03:00 PM

Second mug of tea.

I have come o'er moor and mountain
Like the hawk upon the wing
I was once a shining knight
Who was the guardian of a king
I have searched the whole world over
Looking for a place to sleep
I have seen the strong survive
And I have seen the lean grown weak

Reaching for his saddlebag
He takes a rusty sword into his hand
Then striking up a knightly pose
He shouts across the ocean to the shore
Till he can shout no more

Good morning, everyone! It's Guitar Tuesday once again! Yippee! Got a good number of people coming to play today, so there should be a really wide variety of music being played, from Doo Wop to Calypso. So with that in mind, I'm drinking two different mugs of tea at the same time; Viang Joom On's 'English Breakfast' tea and Taylors of Harrogate's 'English Breakfast' tea. It's a nice comparison, and each although English Breakfast blends has its own unique flavor almost unnoticeable unless tasted side by side. I couldn't say I prefer one over the other. I wish I had some Fortnum&Mason's 'Royal Blend,' their English Breakfast blend, to add into the test. That used to be my all-time #1 favorite. Unfortunately, they have priced themselves out of the running with exorbitant and uncalled-for shipping charges. If the East India Company can ship from the UK a realistic prices, Fortunm&Mason should be able to as well!

After dinner and drinking my coffee, which I don't particularly like the taste. I decided to try and stop using so much coffee creamer and many family and friends have suggested almond silk. They use it instead of milk for everything, so I decided to give it a try. Yuck, it really changes the taste.

I am really trying to like it, but I may have to just give up and make another cup of coffee.

Yech. A little milk, sure. But I don't like flavoured coffee.

A glass of water.

dreams · 04-29-2014, 01:41 AM

Yech, is right. I am so loving my fresh cup of coffee. I think my (horrible, junk filled; which I love) creamer is here to stay. The flavor of original coffee mate is what I like.

Congrats! Sorry for the late reply. I tried to give Karma but I have to spread some around first. That is most awesome.

Finished off some coffee, getting ready for tea. Thinking about what type of tea while finishing my morning bowl of fruit. Today is honey dew and cantelop with blueberries. Yummy, three colors, and overall a good habit to keep.

I have Apples and Cuties for my first morning snack and my dark cocoa enhanced coffee for my drink.

Hey, at least this time you've got a good boss!

I'll toast you both with a glass of rum!
