have a break!

Yes, I love coffee. I love everything about coffee. One day, a neighbor asked me how many cups of coffee I consume in a day. I told her. about 3-4 cups. She was not surprised. She is a coffee drinker herself, but she prefers drinking Blended Espresso. Well, to each his own. I'm no Starbucks fanatic. I have nothing against Starbucks, really. I think I have dined / drank at a nearby Starbucks Coffeeshop once only. And then I bought a coffee tumbler, it looked so cute, with the wintery snowy backdrop. I think that was about 2 Christmases ago. Then I never came back.

No, I didn't have any bad experience there. I actually enjoyed my 1-hour stay there with a former colleague. I guess I was just not really into fancy coffee shops or fabulously sweet coffee mixes. I prefer my own mix - black and strong. Sometimes I put two teaspoon of creamer but I do it rather occasionally.

And when I do drink, I make sure I've got a book beside me or in-front of me. I don't know how to explain it, but I think, coffee & books blend together. They are the perfect pair. They should always be beside each other. Call me weird, but that's the way the cookie crumbles on my side.

And with that, here's a cup of coffee and a simple note for you (and me, actually) to make this day special. And don't forget to put some spark on your coffeebreak!
