    Absolutely LOVE coffee. Since I was a child, my parents would give me the tiniest bit of coffee and fill the rest with milk. When I got into high school I started having coffee a lot, when I worked two full time jobs while going to school coffee became my best friend and that has carried on throughout college and my adult years so far. Coffee is one thing I will not give up. I know how to fit in coffee into my daily caloric intake and a huge part of that is because I stopped paying 4 or 5 bucks a pop for a coffee drink from Starbucks. I happily enjoy homemade coffee with some milk or creamer from the store, and I'm just as satisfied and saving a ton of money and calories!

    This is a very in thing topic. I could not help but smile when I read Coffee Addicts .

    Decided to buy staff Nespresso Machine recently as they were wasting money buying office delivered Coffee.

    Now all they have to do is buy the Nespresso Pods / Capsules and I make sure Skim Milk, and Equal/ Natvia are in stock.

    Luckily, one of the Bookkeepers enjoys making us all coffee so now we put a jar to put coins in for pods and for person making coffee.

    The whole place smells so good.

    It is like a daily ritual now and we look forward to "smoko" ( Australian colloquial term for coffee break ) time.

    We are now also members of the Coffee Club as well so when we dine at Coffee Club we get buy one take one on coffee,

    Amazing !

    Cheers

    My BF and I went to Mexico and I was getting these KILLER headaches. They were so bad I would almost classify them as migranes. I thought maybe it was my new meds.. but... about 3 days in we stopped at this little coffee shop, and with 2 sips, my headache disappeared.
    Needless to say we had coffee every day after!!

    Funny thing is, I usually only have 1-2 cups a day!
    Definatly an addict

    I'm a serious coffee snob... No Torani for me, gotta be Monin at least. Gotta have great crema on the espresso. Gotta be freshly-ground beans. Mmmmm.....

    Sometimes the only reason I go to bed is because I know I get to drink coffee when I wake up!! :))

    Yep! That's me. I'm typically pretty stingy with what I will buy myself, but I splurge on coffee. Coffee. Yea, I'm going to go get some coffee now.

    I drink way too much coffee!

    And the sad thing is, most of the time the caffeine upsets my stomach. :(

    I am!! At least twice a day but generally continuously throughout the day when I'm at work. I'm from Seattle-area haha, so I started in my teens, and my addiction became a habit during nursing school. Now its just my daily habit haha. I have coffee like the English have tea! I also love all coffee flavored things - my favorite flavors of ice cream and frozen yogurt is coffee and my favorite chocolate candy is chocolate covered espresso beans. I even have coffee flavored lip gloss from Forever 21 :laugh:

    Drinking some as I type....yum.

    Lived in northern Italy for a few years so I'm a bit selective about it now.

    I didn't think I had a problem until we were visiting family members who didn't even own a coffee pot - nooooo!!!! Fortunately there was a 711 not far away to satisfy the need :happy:

    Everyone should own a coffee pot! :huh: For mother's day, my son bought me four different kinds/brands of coffee!! He wins the "son of the year" award!!:love:

    I feel bad now... after reading everyone's posts, I realized I drink entirely too much coffee if that is possible! I take out at least a pot a day alone and more if my wife or family are drinking as well. I drink it straight black and as strong as I can get it. My family laughs at me because I am the guy that will wait by a freshly filled machine for enough coffee to brew to fill my cup. That very first strong cup is quite likely to hold the key to world peace, the recipe for pure happiness. I can't think of much that I look forward to everyday more than my coffee!

    This past Christmas, my in-laws got us a Keurig. We never knew we wanted one and never knew we would like one... But we LOVE it and have used it almost every single day since. Compared to our old coffee pot, the Keurig makes it taste so pure.

    I used to put International Delight in my coffee, since I think the taste and texture of Coffee Mate is crap compared. But in an effort to reduce the sugar of each cup (I use 4 Tbsp per cup) I now use 1 Tbsp Int. Delight and 3 Tbsp sugar-free Coffee Mate. (Would use sugar-free Int. Delight, but it's so hard to find.) Cut my sugar per cup from 24 g to only 6 g. (: Good tip for cutting back sugar!
