I do what I do not want to do...

...and what I want to do I do not do.

For example: coffee. I drink A LOT of coffee.  Which means, I buy A LOT of coffee.  Espressos, lattes, cappuccinos, mochas, black, with cream...you name it, I drink it.  And if I don't drink it I get a headache.  Uh, I think I'm addicted.  Actually, I KNOW I'm addicted.  But see, I love coffee. 

Think about it like this.  Coffee brings people together! If I want to have girl time, we go to coffee.  Bible study time, go to coffee.  Catch up time, go to coffee.  Relaxing time, go to coffee.  Staying awake for studying, go to coffee.  Stress reliever, go to coffee.  Get-away-from-it-all, go to coffee.  There is never a bad excuse to not have coffee. 

BUT.....

Coffee provides a few issues.  Like, it makes me poor.  Seriously.  Ok, so I buy pretty generic coffee in bulk to drink everyday (which btw is really good with a little milk and cinnamon).  But, there are those times where I make coffee runs...any excuse will do.  Its Friday.  Its test day.  Its a late study night.  Its been a stressful day.  I have a gift card.  Its fall.  Its summer.  Its spring.  Its winter. Its early.  I'm not awake yet.

You get the idea. 

I've often considered giving up coffee. But....the thought of giving up fellowship and getting headaches is not a good option. 

Oh! I just have to impart some of my favorite coffee drinks before I go...because I can.

Starbucks: Pretty much anything, but the standard fallbacks are Pumpkin Spice Latte, Cinnamon Dolce Latte with soy milk, any of the Christmas drinks (peppermint mocha...), and White Chocolate Mocha.

Meads Corner: Peanut Butter Latte.  Hands down the best thing ever. 

Scooters: Vanilla Latte, Chunky Monkey Latte, Chi Latte.  They also have amazing smoothies.

Quick Trip: French Vanilla Latte. Every time. 

Panera: Hazelnut...fresh brewed.  mmmmmm. 

Seattles Best: Cinnabon with just a little bit of cream.


Of course there is always more...like this amazing pumpkin spice coffee that Cracker Barrel sells (thanks to LaVonna for introducing me to this one :-)  I guess I'm somewhat of a connoisseur of coffee.

Oh.  NEVER EVER drink McDonalds coffee.  Its burnt.  Always.

Much Love
