Tuesday Coffee

The other day I was too lazy to walk the 10 feet to the refrigerator to get milk out for my coffee.....so I just threw an extra scoop of sugar in and called it good.  What ended up happening was a taste that sparked a memory.

When I was in Brazil with World Vision I had some of the best and sweetest coffee of my life.  Normal coffee, came pre-sugared....and it was A LOT of sugar.  Because of the tastes of some of my compatriots, we asked them to brew a second thermos each day...of un-sugared.  I just kept drinking the sugary goodness.  Not only would the caffeine kick you in the butt, but the sugar had you buzzing until lunch.....where there was more coffee.

Throw an extra scoop of sugar in today for me.

Tuesday Coffee

Last week we stopped at Wegman's and I got some chocolate covered coffee beans.  I've rationed them out.  Today, they're helping me make through a long busy day.

Tuesday Coffee

This isn't factually correct, but it's the muppets....particularly Animal. I've had coffee in Brazil by the way....and it was fabulous.

Tuesday Coffee VIDEO

Last week the boys and I were on our own for dinner one night.  As we ate Corban asked how....oh shoot I forgot...."something" was made.  So we YouTubed it.  We ended up watching a series of videos on how things were made.  This was one.

Tuesday Coffee

Someone asked what's with Tuesday Coffee posts......Monday has turned into a work day when it used to be my "down" day.  So that makes Tuesday my Monday.  So I usually drink a bundle of coffee on Tuesday morning and my brain isn't always fully functioning.  I don't always have the capacity to blog.  So this is what you get.
