“A teaspoon of sugar helps the medicine go down . . .”
I have to agree that sugar is very delicious (especially a spoonful of it). But if I wrote the song it would go something like this, “A mug full of coffee helps the medicine go down,” or better yet, “A mug full of coffee keeps the medicine away.”
A few days ago we received a new coffee maker in the mail! It’s white, and goes quite well in our kitchen (which has a white appliance theme). When we made the coffee in the new pot we found out that it doesn’t need nearly as much coffee grounds as an old percolator (what we’d been using the past couple years). Anyways, when I drank the first cup (which was very strong) I seemed to have accumulated all the caffeine.
While drinking a mug of coffee, I really don’t care what the flavor is. A little bit of sugar and milk, make it taste just write. Never have I had a coffee flavor that I didn’t like — not that I’ve had all that much of a variety. But when we ordered the coffee maker a couple special packages of coffee grounds came with it. One of the packages is Creme Brulee, and oh it’s so delightful! Last evening we brewed it, and there was still some leftover this morning, so I was able to drink some more of the delightful beverage.
Usually I’m an afternoon coffee drinker, it just seems the perfect time to drink it. Just when the home is cooling off from the sun going down. But of course now and than I’ll have a cup in the mornings.
Just remember that if you’re not fully grown and you drink excessive amounts of coffee, it will stunt your growth. I don’t feel as if I will get much taller than my current 5’1″
