This morning's random question

[DCJenn]

before work: one mug's worth- unless it's one of the Starbucks mugs. Then into the car coffee mug goes as much as it will hold. That's done by the time I get to work, usually. At work, at least one in the morning and usually one (HUGE) mug in the afternoon. Interspersed is usually several bottles (I use a water bottle that from a gyn convention that was here so it has some gyne- something medication name on it) of water- sometimes I'll through some crystal light in it, some times not. I'm also a big fan of La Croix sparkling water which comes in cans. I usually take two of those to work, too.

and no, my blood sugar levels are fine, I'm just a thirsty caffeine addict.

I detest the flavor of coffee. I don't even like tiramasu.

Never drink the stuff.

But, I start every morning at work with a can of Coca-Cola!!

I don't drink coffee or tea either...

Normally 1 large mug of coffee with flavored creamer (totally fake, but delish). However, this pregnancy has made it impossible to drink coffee due to morning sickness (boo!). I am drinking a glass of iced tea right now though...ahhh...

Now that I don't work 1 big mug of very strong coffee is usually enough to get me through the day. Some days require two. When I used to work (or even temp), I'd need at least 3 cups (big ones) to stay away through the day. 1.5 spoons of real sugar and a splash or two of skim milk in each cup.

Tara we're Coffee Twins
I only like the real stuff: 1/2 & 1/2 and sugar.
I also nuke mine throughout the day.

Lately I have been having chai tea, half tea and half soy milk. I have 2 mugs a day.

I’m not a coffee or tea drinker. However, my morning Diet Coke is a must.

I don't drink coffee or tea, either. I love Coke, but not in the morning, and since I only like Coke with sugar, I have been trying to keep that down to once a week or less. I don't know why I never started drinking coffee.....my mom does, and I love the smell. Who knows?

[Bittersweet]

I am the same way. I love the smell just never developed a taste for it, I guess.

I try and keep it to one coffee each morning, it is the first thing I do when I get up in the morning. Strong with sugar and soy milk. I just make enough for one cup otherwise I will drink the pot

[DCJenn]

We make ten cups for the two of us. Every day.

Mark me down for another cup of tea this afternoon, and a coke at McDonald's. I just can't lift this fog today. Ugh. I'm soooo looking forward to going to bed tonight.

I make four cups of strong french-pressed coffee every morning and usually get to drink all of it; then I get a redeye (medium coffee + 1 espresso shot) in the early afternoon.

and no, my blood sugar levels are fine, I'm just a thirsty caffeine addict.

That describes me too.

Is that 10 "cups" as in the markings on the coffee pot, or is that 10 actual mugs?

Most of the time I was growing up, my parents each would drink an average of 10 mugs every day. They've both backed off a *lot* since then, thankfully.

I never acquired a taste for the stuff. I love the way it smells, and I like coffee flavor in things, but I can't drink the stuff straight. I have a weakness for frappuchinos, but the only hot thing I drink at starbucks is hot chocolate.
