The Coffee Meme
This one is an oldie -- but I don't remember doing it! I don't remember where I GOT it either! (oops! sorry!)
Your first cup, when do you drink it? The minute my pot stops brewing it! I don't get up to an alarm clock - so it could be anywhere from 4:30 a.m. - 10:00 a.m! But when I wander down stairs, I head straight for the kitchen and start the coffee brewing!
How many cups a day do you drink? Usually two. But on occasion I may have a cup later in the day too.
Decaf or real? REAL! Definitely.
Sugar, milk or cream? I like the flavored creamers - fat free french vanilla is the favorite and most frequently used -- but occasionally I go for something spicy -- cinnamon, or gingerbread... they are already sweet too - so I don't use additional sugar or sweetener.
Your favourite way of brewing? I do LOVE drip coffee... but I'm thinking of investing in a percolator too... Perks bring back such sweet memories!
With whom do you prefer to enjoy your coffee? Well, weekend coffee with Hubby is great! But really I can enjoy a cup with pretty much anyone who wants to enjoy a cup with ME! How 'bout YOU?
Your favorite brand? I am NOT a coffee "snob" -- but even I know that not all coffee's are created equal! I do NOT like Starbucks brand - I will tell you that! I usually buy Maxwell House regular, mild blend. I also like Folger's - I think it's their "morning blend" or "country morning blend" -- something like that. One time Hubby bought Choc Full O' Nuts though... I thought I would DIE! It was awful! I don't know which "flavor" it was though -- I just know it turned me off that brand! LOL!
Where do you prefer to drink your coffee? I'm assuming we're talking about on an average day at MY house! (because honestly I would prefer to drink it out on the deck at the beach, watching the ocean!) But on a typical morning, I prefer either sitting in the kitchen OR here at my computer visiting with all of you!
What does your favorite cup look like? Darn! I HAVE shown THIS before!
But it IS my current favorite.
Espresso, Cappuccino or Latte Macchiato? My HONEST favorite is just good ol' plain ol' cup o' coffee! But OF THE 3 - I would say Cappuccino!
Favorite occupation while drinking coffee? Reading -- either the paper, a book, or a blog.... OR talking. Depends on what's available at the time!
Oh yea...
HAPPY LEAP DAY!!!

If anyone would have told me when I was in my 20's that I would be addicted to coffee, I would have called them crazy. But now, I must have my coffee in the morning. I just want a little sweet and low and I've satisfied.

I drink my coffee black and love it American style, Spanish coffee is way too strong for me.
And yes, I would love to enjoy a cup with YOU!!!
Happy leap day, Melli!

From the time I was 14 to somewhere in my mid-twenties I was a strong black-coffee addict. I would drink coffee both before and after school, and sometimes even enjoy a cup after dinner. Then I developed acid reflux. Though the sores are healed, I have to be very careful how much coffee I drink. I still love it, but I am down to one or two cups per week! Always the mild roasts, and always with creamer.

I love my coffee too. Had to adjust to decaff because of Hubby's high blood pressure, but I still make the coffee with freshly ground beans each morning. 8 o'clock coffee is our favorite!

I like black (black like the devil's hole) coffee and strong ! very strong, only with sugar ! When we were with my aunt in Madison I made first coffee for us and then my aunt made another 6 cups for herself and my uncles with the same coffee powder we had used ! My uncle a real yankee, could'nt understand that we weren't dead yet with such a strong coffee !
Of course I know who offered the cats to me, but it is so boring if I always have to say Mr. Gattino or our son ! I suspect Mr. Gattino offering me cats for a yes or a no, because he likes them too ! I am only a good excuse !

I drink far to much coffee, Mr WW has a little Italian stovetop brewer and makes a mean cup of coffee.
Have a great weekend.

You know I'm a coffee lover so I identified with your answers. If we ever do meet, I am going to give you some of my Venezuelan coffee. I promise you will not want to ever drink anything else!!
