What's in your cup?

So since today is more of a Monday for most people than yesterday was, I decided to post the Monday Morning Coffee thread today.

So what's in your cup this morning?? Coffee? Tea? A little spirits? ~O)

bumpuser9353653

Today is my work from home day, so I got fancy with my coffee. Single serve French press with pumpkin spice syrup. Delish!

Ooo fancy @rugbymama‌

I just have a giant cup of decaf orange pekoe tea!

Just water so far, but I have a Coconut Caramel Chocolate Cookie Crunch K-cup ready to go after I finish breakfast.  Mmmmm.

Thanks! I really like it too. And I got it in an office Christmas gift exchange years ago. No idea where it came from!

Does Red Bull count? If I pour it in a cup will it count?

Whatever gets you going in the morning. But coffee and tea still win

Black espresso roast coffee. That is now cold. In my mug that I quickly rinsed from yesterday morning to pour this morning's coffee in.

I can feel your envy.

This is pretty much every day for me at the office.

Bummer. I'm keep hoping someone will chime in with their bold roast spiked with a little Kahlua or shot of whiskey.

This thread is making me want to bring a pretty mug to the bakery. I'll feel pretty lame if I just keep posting the same picture of a Klean Kanteen. Maybe I should just take pictures of all my mugs, keep them in a album on my phone and choose a different one to post each week. Maybe I'll even pose the mugs next to diapers.

WOAH.


And just because I'm bored, coffee and a diaper.

And I'm pretty boring.  Medium roast with raw sugar and 2% milk.

Are you at work? You have a random cover with you?

Yes I do.  I always carry newborn diapers around with me.  You know, in case of an emergency....

Actually it's because of the NB cover thread and I wanted to be able to ship them if I needed to.

I just found a burp rag in my purse.  It happens.

Am I the only weirdo who usually just drinks milk in the morning?

@ovenrack English Breakfast is my FAVORITE! I can't figure out why it's better than normal black tea; probably all in my head.

joyfultrex

coffee with 2% milk, Bubba stole my cup before I remembered to take a pic.

Mandmeesh

Damn. I missed all of the coffee goodness. I ended up staying FOUR HOURS later at work than I intended.

My coffee mornings are about to get awesomer though: MIL got me an espresso machine and I made vanilla syrup for lattes and macchiatos at home mmmmmm ~O)

TJ1979

What time will it be ready meesh?

Well, I'm not in possession of the machine yet . But I'll let you know when it's here and on my countertop

I've had an espresso machine in my cabinet for like 3 years.
I have no idea what to do with it.

Ooooh I can teach you!

Chickypoo2468 said:

Please do!!

But I'm also afraid. There's this thing called "moderation" that I just can't seem to get a handle on.

Oh yeah. I'm right there with you. My hope is that it'll be so good and take a little more effort that I'll want just one cup :-D. Because now I drink 8. A day

TJ1979

MK - I'll trade you a vacuum sealer for the espresso machine.

stoneycakes

Me too, MK! I have an espresso machine unopened that I just moved to my new place, lol. It doesn't steam the milk though. Which is basically why I haven't used it.

TJ1979

@stoneycakes Meesh knows how to steam and froth milk in the microwave.  I'm curious if it would work with coconut milk or if it would separate?

Whaat?! That's awesome. I wanna know! (Although our microwave is kinda broken and it only works with pressing the beverage button... Which does, I have no effing idea....)
