You are the first thing I think of in the morning. You are the little something that makes me so happy to greet the day.
You warm me and give me the strength I need to face life. Our love can never be measured. You are priceless to me. A day without you would be unthinkable. You are good to me even if I haven't brushed my teeth yet.
Without you I fear I could not be the person I want to be. Thank you for being there every morning. You never ask for much but a dash of sweetener and cream. I am so glad I met you in college when I had 7:00 am macro economics. We have been inseparable ever since.
Happy Valentine's Day coffee.
Here's a favorite coffee recipe.
Did you make that journal? It is very cute! I have one that is similar that I made for Christmas - I write in it and update it every Christmas. -Renee
ReplyDeleteToo funny! Coffee and I have a love/hate relationship. When I drink too much I get jittery! But I always come back. I may take a break, but it always pulls me back!
ReplyDeleteI'm with you...love my first cup of morning coffee! I enjoy getting my coffee maker all set the night before and waking to the smell of it in the morning. Doesn't get much better then that! Cute post!
ReplyDeleteThat's the cutest post ever, I'm serious! So glad your coffee gets you going, I have to have my Mickey D's sweet tea. At least you don't have to go out for yours! Your pictures are beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteMary
Oh...you had me at "hello."
ReplyDeleteDitto on the coffee...except for the college part. :)

This made me smile! I too love my morning coffee!!

Love it. I should post a similar ode to coffee. With a 3yo, 2yo, and 10 mon old, I drink coffee more than water some days.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a coffee drinker, though I wish I was. I really could use a jolt of caffeine to get my day going, but alas, it is not for me. I always say there are two foods I don't like - coffee and beets.
ReplyDeleteI have the same love for coffee !
ReplyDeleteHahahaha! You're too funny, Elaine. I LOVE coffee too and started like you-in college (usually used it to keep me studying at night!) :)
ReplyDeleteWish I could "love" coffee but I just can't make myself love the taste but I LOVE to smell it brewing! Smells comforting and cozy!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Tammy
Hello Elaine,
ReplyDeleteWell, I love coffee as well.
There is something very special about coffee...the aroma...the feeling...

What a cute post! I love your pretty pictures and i feel the exact same way about my coffee! I'm drinking Green Mountain Breakfast Blend right now but it's a light roast where I usually have a medium. I just make a cup instead of a mug on my Keurig and then it is really tasty! I too add sugar and coffee mate....sometimes flavored. The Dollar General has the best assortment of flavored Coffee Mates I've found anywhere. The recipe sounds great especially tonight as we're getting snow! I'm so excited! Just got the wood in for a fire. You got my pumpkin latte recipe didn't you? It tastes just like the Starbucks one too! If you didn't get it let me know and I'll put it up on my blog. Thanks for any and all coffee recipes! Love the stuff!
ReplyDeleteElaine, you are precious!!! I have the very same relationship with coffee, hahaaha! And although I laugh, I'm dead serious. ;)
ReplyDeleteI'll check out your favorite recipe, and I happen to be drinking a cup coffee as we "speak"!
Blessings and Happy Valentines,
Leslie
I'm right there with you, Elaine. My Granny introduced me to it when I was little. Mostly milk and sugar and as the years passed, less milk and sugar and more coffee! It is so warm and comforting :)
ReplyDeleteHi Friend, Lol, I am not awake until my first cup! Anna
ReplyDeleteI feel that way about tea. I have Earl Grey Tea every morning. Coffee only occasionally. Cheers!
ReplyDeleteI have been having a love affair with coffee since I was in high school. I wanted to drink it along with my brothers, on our way to school in the morning. My Mom said I could, ONLY if I did not add sugar. I have been drinking since!!!! LOVE my coffee!!!

Oh I love my coffee first thing too. I fix the coffee pot at night and then just push the button the minute I wake up. Love my morning coffee. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeleteCute post I have gotten out of the habit of morning coffee so I don't drink it so much any more.
ReplyDeleteCathy
We share the same love, Elaine! Some days it is the only reason I even get out of bed! That, and my birds. ;-) xo
ReplyDeleteROF!!! I had to read this to my husband!! We both got a kick out of it as we feel the same about coffee!!!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, I love my coffee first thing in the morning, too. We buy Starbucks beans from Costco and grind them for each pot, it's the best!
ReplyDeleteI love your red and white tray with the red lidded canister. Very pretty!
Hugs, Cindy
Oh man, I was dying reading this post. I too LOVE coffee BUT.....I can't drink it anymore, stomach issues, drat!!! Ya never know how much you love something til ya lose it. Crying big ol' tears here :(
ReplyDeleteMy husband gets up before me to make coffee. I am lucky enough to wake up to a cup of coffee being handed to me in the morning. I think my family like me better with coffee in my veins. LOL
ReplyDeleteHi Elaine,
ReplyDeleteI enjoy an occasional cup of coffee.....BUT....I really, really LOVE my cups of tea. I drink about 8 cups a day and the first one and the last one of the day are definately the Best...
Have a lovely Valentines day
Barb
Ahhhh.....There's nothing better in the morning than that first cup!
ReplyDeleteValentine's wishes, my friend.
