12. Funny how you only get 3 or 4 REAL cups of coffee out of a 12 cup machine

15. that's true, my favorite coffee mug holds exactly 16 ounces without the dreaded
spillage, yes i measured it. I almost bought a coffee urn but i thought maybe that was a just a little excessive.

10. yep, I have had two pots today
now bear in mind have a MINI sized Mr Coffee..the little pot is about 4 (6 oz) cups
if it were a normal size coffee maker I would be running laps around the ceiling.

I had the first with breakfast and am working on the second one now...I poured it into a very tall tumbler and added a cup and 1/2 of silk soy milk so it is sort of latte -ish. Quite good

13. I don't just drink it, I'm pretty much addicted.
I could quit beer, smoking and all of my favorite foods ten times as easily as I could limit myself to even three cups of coffee a day. Nobody has ever gotten more value out of a purchase than I have out of my coffee maker.

14. Haven't had a cup of coffee in 12 years. Yuck.
Wasn't really a coffee drinker before that either (my tummy doesn't handle it well).

But I have 23 tea blends in my kitchen cabinet! Greens, oolongs, you name it...anything but the yucky black teas.

19. yes, and I'm thinking of getting rid of the drip coffee maker
that invariably dribbles and just isn't really hot enough. I want a 12 cup French press but I don't want to spend $50! While I'm unemployed I'm hitting the resale shops. No luck so far. :hi:

23. Two pots a day...ready in 3 minutes flat. Thanks Bunn.
BabyG's favorite ice cream flavor is coffee and I find something really, really wrong with that.

25. Nope
While I was a poor traveller, I was given a couple cups. Out of politeness, I tossed them down my gullet. I wasn't converted.

My father always said I'd start drinking coffee when I had to work for a living. On his death bed, he asked if I drank coffee yet. Nope. And I'd been working for a living for a long, long time.

27. No
I used to for awhile but I just don't really like the taste of it. Plus, I stopped drinking caffeine. Sometimes I slip up and have a caffeinated soda but for the most part no caffeine.

30. My brain doesn't work without one 16-oz. cup of Peace Coffee French roast
in the morning (or Caribou's Obsidian blend, if I can't get hold of Peace Coffee) and at least 12 oz. in the afternoon.

Come to think of it, I'm overdue. See y'all later.

31. I used to be very concerned when there was too much blood in my caffeine stream
But I've cut down considerably in recent years. (high blood pressure through the roof will do that to ya :( )

34. Yes, if I did not have willpower I would drink it all day
I drink 2 cups in the AM and then stop (sometimes 3 on a lazy weekend morning)

That said, I also made chocolate coffee cupcakes with Kahlua butter cream icing this weekend....OMG yum. Each with a little dark chocolate covered espresso bean on top.

My hubs is in Iove all over again too BTW (he loves coffee AND chocolate)
