I just came back from the opening of a new coffeeshop down the street...

[terrya]

And they were serving ginger coffee. I've never had it before...it was almost like I died and went to heaven.

I'm a big coffee fan. I'll give up all my vices...well, almost alll...:-)

But coffee. I can't give up coffee.

Am I the only insane one when it comes to the nectar of the bean?

[JitterbugPerfume]

[Kathy in Cambridge]

4. No, I came back from Italy with a suitcase full of Illy and Lavazza

I am addicted to coffee. I usually don't like flavored coffee, but Ginger coffe sounds fabulous!

5. I'm a coffeeholic too.

Coffee is the one thing I will NEVER give up. They'll have to pry the cup from my cold dead hands LOL. :-)

6. KONA Coffee Is My Craving!

I gave up my pack and a half a day cigarette habit... I'll NEVER give up my coffee. (Unless I'm stranded on a desert island with JD and Turk and The Todd.)

[bluedeminredstate]

8. LOL!!

I love JD and Turk. The Todd is another story.
What a great show!

[terrya]

9. Need I remind you that JD is MINE?

Goodness....isn't Turk and The Todd emough?? :-)

[arwalden]

11. I'm Such A Miscreant ... Sorry.

I didn't mean to be so thoughtless. Of course you can have JD... I'll take Sean the SeaWorld Guy, and the Janitor Guy, and Dr. Cox instead.

-- Allen

[terrya]

14. You're not a miscreant, Allen. You just forgot. :-)

Ah, Scott Foley...notice the number of times they've had him wear a skintight wet suit on the show (when he's at SeaWorld) ? :-)

7. I just returned from "coffeeshop heaven" (Amsterdam)

Needless to say I don't believe I drank any coffee....

[chicaloca]

10. lol.....

That's exactly why I looked at this thread--I was thinking maybe the poster just got back from one of _those_ coffee shops.

Actually, when I studied in Amsterdam, there was a coffee shop we would go to not for the joints, but because they served really good smoothies. (Honest!) O8)

[Bertha Venation]

12. I knew there was a reason I liked you!

Well, okay, it ain't the coffee. It's you. But I'm not a bit surprised.

I moonlighted at a coffeehouse back home for a year. The place was called "Hot Java" and I got hooked on espresso. Not such a good thing for one with hypertension, but oh well.

<slurp>

[terrya]

13. Thanks, Bertha. I like you, too! :-)

And being a fellow coffee lover as well.....

I love STRONG coffee. I'll get an espresso from time to time.

I get into work earlier than everyone else...and I make the coffee. And I try to remember that not all of my co-workers like the coffee as strong as I do...but sometimes I don't remember...:-)

I wouldn't mind working in a coffee shop. That's my second choice...besides working in a bookstore...

[Bertha Venation]

15. I had to give it up

My feet couldn't stand standing anymore. I was sad to have to quit. Especially since the owners wouldn't give me free coffee anymore. x(

[terrya]

17. Well, that stinks...

Geez...I would think that free coffee would be part of the package of working there...

[VolcanoJen]

16. I also crave the nectar of the bean, terrya!

Ginger coffee, eh? Can't wait to try it!

I heart ginger, and I heart coffee.... sounds like a match made in heaven!

:D

[terrya]

18. I didn't know anyone would try such a thing, VolcanoJen....

It was pieces of ginger in the coffee. I was told to stir the coffee a bit and let it sit for a little while. When I took my first sip...it was just scrumptous. The ginger blended in with the coffee so well.

I'm such a coffee fan...I'm a member of Gevalia Coffee. I get a batch every six weeks or so. If you're not a member, you might want to check them out...a lot of great flavors...:-)
