Coffee, Coffee, Coffee… I love coffee. I have been drinking coffe since I was about age 5. My grandmother would give us a tiny cup that was more like 1/2 milk and 1/2 coffee with a little sweetener. Now I drink it anyway I can get it. Black to a dressed up Carmel mocha!!!
My first job was at a coffee house (before Starbucks came to town) and I can’t start my day and sometimes my evenings with out coffee.
Love it!
I am a ‘new’ coffee lover. I grew up in a house that my parents couldn’t even stand the smell of it! I Iove it now!!! Add some chocolate and caramel and I am one happy camper. I was very excited when Starbucks started offering the blonde roast.
I was a late coffee lover also!
I love coffee!!!!!!!! Coffee places is where I go with my bestest friends. We go drink coffee and spend time together. Coffee brings us together……. And I love my BFF !!!!
That is so sweet!
And I forgot to say I Love Starbucks.
I can tell
I LOVE the taste and smell of my favorite coffee. I like to refer to it as “liquid heaven” I personally love drinking a hot cup of coffee to start my day. It gives me energy and makes me feel like I am one with the world. My favorite part of the week in a quiet Sunday morning with a cup of coffee and my newspaper, magazines and a good book to read in the reading room of my house. My mother used to pour me some in a small saucer and let me drink it one it cooled. I thought I was so grown up on those precious mornings. Coffee is such good stuff!!!
Love to hear that you have a morning cup with your paper!
Good Lucj!
Even though I am almost 59, I am fairly new to drinking coffee. Just never did accquire the taste for it til recently and it is because of Starbucks! I have not tried the blonde roast yet, but I know I am going to love it as I like the lighter roast. Specially with caramel and white chocolate.
Carmel sounds good!
My hubby LOVES coffee–the stronger the better. He’s the only person I know who gets up in the middle of the night to drink coffee.
Doesn’t that just keep him up longer?
Well, Stacie, maybe not the middle of the night, but in the evening. Let’s just say that one year I had 6 coffee cups given to me by students. Ha! I’m going to start hanging my “collection”.
I think they have got you figured out!
OK, It’s not so much “I love coffee” as it is “I NEED COFFEE”!!! Especially when i first wake up in the morning-just ask Adam.
And I dont think I have had a Starbucks fix in years-we used to get a Starbucks coffee fix every chance we got so it would be a GREAT TREAT to get a Starbucks gift card!!!
So PICK ME PICK ME-haa haa!!
Are you one of those people who are not pleasant until they get their coffee?
LOVE Starbucks!! Great place to go drink coffee and hang out with friends.
I agree!
And i would love to have free coffee!!!!
Good Luck!
When I was little I would sneak sips (though I’m sure she knew) of my mother’s creamy sweet coffee. As a teen with the first Starbucks in our area being miles away, my friends and I would pile in a car and head over on the weekends for our “coffee club.” These days the aroma fills my house in the mornings keeping me from grumbling as I trip over furry children and try to get the rest of the family out of bed.
Thanks for the opportunity!
You are welcome and good luck to you!
Love my Keurig and Starbucks! Headed to Starbucks now to grab a venti white chocolate mocha!!!! Love this stuff!!!
I like the Vanilla Latte.
well, it’s hard to explain my love for coffee. My fav is Casi Cielo, meaning “almost heaven”. It is available at Startbucks right now!
You are too funny!
“Is this the right color?” I would ask mom as I brought her coffee as a young girl. Yes, she loved the cream and the coffee was a bonus. Like mother like daughter…I too enjoy the coffee creamery. Nowadays, we have the flavory choices to add. Starbucks is the cream of the crop! I would love to share the $20 with some mom and daughter time at the best smelling, hang out place, Starbucks!
Good luck, thanks for sharing!
I could use some coffee right now. White chocolate mocha sounds good. I will need it to put in my new (friends coffee cup) from church. Could you order up a nice snow day and a good book to go with the coffee?
Wow, that sounds GREAT!
For the love of coffee, Starbucks especially. Let them make it or let me know about Starbucks Tassimo being discontinued so I know for sure and certain I need to go down the hill for a fix. Wish me luck or at least good coffee.
Good Luck to you!
I love the carmel macchiato. With the price of coffee steadily going up, it has definately become a “treat”. Kinda like Dove chocolate. You get one,turn off the phone, hide from the kids and hubby and savor it.
That is my fav also!
Love, love, Love coffee. Brew Starbucks Sumatra in my regular coffee pot of a morning and the same in the afternoon in my Kuerig. Always stop by Starbucks for an afternoon pick-me-up while shopping with friends – love Mochas. Not a day without it.
Wow, you do like coffee! Good Luck!
I was raised on coffee. My habit began about 3. My mom would make us a concoction we called, ‘coffee milk’. It was mostly milk with coffee and sugar. It was a special treat in our home. As an adult I start each day with at least one cup. I am so lucky that it is provided free at woe, daily. My Starbuck trips are my special treats. I usually go when my daughter is at dance & I love to meet my girlfriends on a girl’s night for coffee & great conversation. I would put this card to excellent use! Thank you!
Bear has not tried coffee yet!
I only like Starbucks white mocha frappacino with Caramel. I would drink them every chance I could, if I didn’t have 4 other Starbucks lovers that live with me! I would never have any money! I would use this as an “I must have coffee” Getaway!
Must have coffee!
I live for coffee. With a 3 hour a day commute, I would not be able to stay awake without it. The stronger and sweeter the better!
AMEN!
Another late coffee drinker here! I grew up in a house where mom drank 2 cups in the mornings with two spoons of creamer. I was then given a starbucks gift card and the rest is history, especially during bootcamp. The sweeter the better! Yum!
Sounds good to me. Good Luck!
Think I need another cup of coffee this afternoon. A LOT to do and not enough energy!
I know the feeling!
I sure could go for a cup of coffee!!
:)
me too!
I use to adamently call coffee, “Poison!” My husband had to have his home brewed Starbucks every morning or he was not a happy man. He finally got me to try out his “poison!’ I was in my forties. Maybe the forties are the years you need that extra kick but now I can’t get my day going without our home brewed Starbucks either. Of course, I add half/half and Splenda which makes it more like a morning dessert! Coffee in a Starbuck’s store is a date night treat for us.
