mmmmm....coffee....

I was never much of a coffee drinker until I moved to Washington four years ago. I knew before moving that it was the birthplace of Starbucks (even if you don't like it please don't talk down my love affair with white chocolate mocha's!) but I didn't realize that every street corner had a coffee shop! I kid you not, there was a Starbucks in my grocery store, then there was another full shop next to my grocery store and then there was a drive up coffee booth in the grocery store parking lot!

It apparently is predetermined for you that you will drink coffee if you live in Washington.

Then I had Maddie and now I need coffee to make it through the day. Sad I know. I am sticking to my thoughts that she grabbed the last of my youth as she was being born because I no longer have the energy she does. The thought is a bit depressing since I haven't even hit my 25th birthday yet!

This morning I stumbled upon Get The Bean (visit now for a free giveaway!) and I have been salivating at the kitchen table since. Their list of flavored coffees (I can't drink unflavored coffee, I guess I am still a coffee learner) is amazing!

Island Breeze ~ a tropical blend of toasted coconut, toffee and rum
Cherry-Nilla ~ cherry and vanilla perfectly swirled together
Butterscotch Toffee ~ a sweet intense flavor of butterscotch toffee

Pop on over take a peek and find your favorite! I want to order all of them!

My cup is empty so I suppose I can start the day now.....and the special Mother's Day breakfast hubby is making smells yummy!

Happy Mother's Day!

My day do not start until I have coffee. Even though I drink decaf (nursing and pregnant) I still need my fix. Oh, and when we are out for dinner, the waiter better bring my hot coffee with my dessert. There is nothing better than coffee with something sweet and chocolate.
