I thought it might be fun to start up a thread all about coffee: what we like about it, what we dislike, how we take our coffee, the kinds of coffee we drink, what we use coffee for, even poems about coffee.
Just talk about anything coffee in this thread.
For me....
I love coffee. I love it's aroma. I like trying different flavoured coffees. I've had banana cream (which I didn't like), barvarian chocolate (which I love), caramel (which I love), chocolate raspberry (which I love), hazelnut (love), french vanilla (love), Butter pecan (which I absolutely love) and others I've forgotten.
I love and hate the stimulant properties of coffee. I love using coffee to study. I find it really helps me concentrate. I hate how coffee keeps me up if I drink too close to bedtime and I hate how it makes my anxiety worse.
I love how coffee suppresses my appetite. I've read conflicting reports of what coffee does to appetite. It seems to affect insulin in a way that can stimulate appetite in some people but on the other hand caffeine is used in a lot of diet pills. I find coffee suppresses my appetite. There is nothing like a large coffee to make me stop craving a food.
Here is how I take my coffee. I'm not a pure coffee lover. I like adding in a bunch of stuff. I take one mug of coffee with two Splendas and either lots of milk or some half and half. For a large coffee I use 4 Splendas. Yup, I love my coffee ultra sweet.
