I don't know what I would do without coffee.

I love it so much.

If coffee didn't exist, I doubt I could face the day. I realized this after my third or fourth sip from my first mug of coffee this morning.

And it's not just a morning thing. I love to have a cup of coffee sometime in the afternoon as well. It's especially nice to enjoy a cup at our favorite local coffeehouse, Common Grounds.

It's not just the lift from the caffeine that I love. I love the flavor and aroma of coffee. There's nothing like opening a new package of whole bean coffee and taking a whiff. I love that the kitchen fills with the aroma when the beans are ground. I love when my clothes pick up the aroma after sitting in the coffeehouse for a while.

Yeah. I don't know what I would do without coffee.

You were so cute when you said that, too: "I don't know what I would do without coffee."

I know how you feel!

You know what? Black coffee's really been floating my boat lately...maybe I'm in the first stages of a coffee snob...

I'm with you 100%. One of my all-time favorite scents is the aroma from a just opened bag of fresh coffee from my local coffee shop/micro roaster.

I'll brew another batch to that! I grind my own Columbian every morning and wonder how anyone could brew pre-ground beans. Viva La Fresh Brew forever.

I hear you on the coffee! When I brew my own or buy some, the first sip sends my whole body into a happy place. (the same with Hefeweisen) My dentist is a Mormon, and I'm sure he'd like to tell me that the coffee stains my teeth, but doesn't dare.
