Yuck - I love coffee, but it can't be yucky coffee.

Nothing wrong with drinking it by yourself (neat write by the way - it like me)DG,
comtemplation time and all that, you know-
specially if outside, in the fall, chill in the air, birds singing...etc. etc....but anywhere...

In the morning, when I have a couple cups myself, I'll think about ya and ya won't be
sippin' alone...anymore (I'm gonna intrude on your space and peace and, and, and....I won't forget! HA!)

This is so cute, I can remember times the coffee goes untasted even just forgotten till you smell that burnt coffee smell and realize that the coffee drank itself...LOL

ground the beans
filled the maker
got distracted
till much later

love good coffee
freshly brewed
but when I've fried it
I'm sorely blued



(Hey, suppose there will ever be a PIP coffee party?  Hmmm, come to think of it, I might get distracted . . .  )

I actually like the smell of coffee as it is freshly brewing.  But as much as i drink, i am sure that i have had the smell of burnt coffee in the air around here too.

Like the write.
A coffee day with all of us would be good.
Brewing a pot right after i post this.

Hey - I'm here, I'm here!  Was up and gone at 5:30...didn't bother to wake you guys but had a couple and said morning to ya'll anyway...my cup was E X C E L L E N T (that's the one I shared with ya'll). I was with ya in spirit anyway...

Grew up in New Orleans - down near the foot of Canal Street ya could smell coffee roasting and french bread baking - both at the same time.  Talk about dying and going to heaven through smell alone - WOW!

COFFEE IS COFFEE!!!!!!!  I'll take a cup.  NO COFFEE IS TOO STRONG ... TOO OLD ... OR TOO ANYTHING to pass up.  Great little ditty.  BTW ... you owe me a cup from Sept of 2000.

   owe him a cup of coffee from that long ago.
   BUT...I knew NOTHING of the 'table dance'??
   Hmmmmmmmmm...get a computer virus, and you
   miss out on all kinds of stuff..LOL.
   Cute little ditty.
