Most of my friends know that I am a plain coffee drinker. Nothing fancy . Just plain old black coffee works for me.
I am not one to go to a coffee shop and order coffee with this that and the other thing in it; then to pay $5.00 a cup to me that it crazy. I could go out for lunch for that! And the calories that so many of those specialty coffee drinks have. I would much rather eat a yummy desert then to drink a specialty coffee. Those coffee drinks can sneak up on you with out even thinking about how many calories are in it. It is just coffee..
I don’t like cream or sugar in it either. Just plain black coffee works for me. I don’t do flavored beans very often either. I have to be in the right mood. There are a few flavored beans that I do like. I like vanilla, hazelnut, and Traverse City Cherry. I am game to try a new flavor once in a while too. But I still like it with out cream and sugar .. yuck.
I don’t care what brand of coffee it is either. I usually buy what is on sale or Aldie brand. I can’t afford anything to expensive. Folgers is what I am drinking right now. Good old “Folgers in the cup” as the old ad use to sing. lol I can pretty much drink any coffee. I find Star Bucks very strong. Reminds me of the days when I worked in a factory and drank ARA vending machine coffee. After 15 years of drinking that stuff you can drink anything! It would either be so strong a spoon would stand up in it or so weak that it was pretty much hot water with a little yellow tinge.
Another thing I don’t understand, is how coffee gives you energy. I can drink a whole 12 cup pot though out the day, and it doesn’t seem to bother me. I can drink it before I go to bed, and still go to sleep with no problem. Maybe my body has adjusted to it after all these years… who knows. lol
Yup, just give me unpolluted coffee. No sugar , no cream.. just plain old coffee. Nothing like a nice simple cup of coffee for me.
Until tomorrow… take care
