Two cups in the morning. There was a time in my early 40's when I couldn't drink it...stomach was a mess every morning. But now, the balance with just two cups seems to get me going and also mentally remind me it is time to get to work.

Am stopping by local weathercaster Ed Phillip's "Weather and Coffee" shop to pick up some gift certificates from him to distribute among some of our clients now that "chilly mornings" are part of the Phoenix weather picture.

Cajunmama, I'm with you. I don't drink much caffiene at all. Did you know that have caffiene-free Diet Dr. Pepper. I can't buy it in the Pittsburgh area but my daughter brings it up from Roanoke when she comes to visit.

I drink 1 or 2 cups of tea or coffee in the morning when I get to work. If we make a brand new pot, I drink coffee. (Don't like it after it's been sitting around) I like a good English or Irish breakfast tea and of course Earl Grey.

Dennis, my favorite, Caramel Machiato. YUMMY

I usually drink CF free DP but since the 2 hurricanes it's harder to find. Went to Winn Dixie last night to buy some on their special 5-12 packs for $10 but they were out...got a raincheck though!!!!

I love the aroma of coffee..but it's too bitter tasting for me. I have tried the French Vanilla Cappuccino they sell at convenience stores and liked it. Drank some one night and ended up painting my entire living room and foyer...from Friday night to 3am Sunday morning! What a buzz!!!!!!!!!

None; I will occasionally drink coffee if I am in a group that is having it. My coffee pot gets used to make iced tea on a daily basis though - throw some tea bags in, brew the tea, and put it in the fridge to cool off (I am sure people that make "proper" tea would shudder at my using the coffeepot :lol: ).

If I lived in a bigger city with a coffee place like Starbucks, it might be a different story, however. Whenever I am in town to shop I have to stop somewhere and get a mocha something or another! (How sad is that, I don't even know coffee terminology!)

LOL, Bill! My last boss at my last job drank coffee all day -
and, I swear - she must have drank at least TWO pots
before she got to work! She had jerking motions with her
arms, blinked her eyes like crazy, and, barked out orders
at the speed of an auctioneer!

I was skeeeered!!! :eek: :lol:

Hey maybe we shouldn't ring Bill's bell for when we Christmas Carol? LOL See another thread to understand....I meant to comment on your 2 pots of coffee post Bill. That is a lot of coffee!!!

I can have 2 or 3 cups in the morning. No heartburn. But if I have it later in the day, I get heartburn. Isn't that odd?

My kids are into these fancy coffee drinks. They roll their eyes at me when I order my inexpensive regular cup of joe, compared to their $3 to $4 drinks. I just say, cha-ching. Mine doesn't cost as much as yours! And the cream is free!!!

I'm off to a parent teacher conference shortly. You know that my travel mug will be going with me.
