Quotes For People Who Know Coffee Is Its Own Food Group

I couldn't tell you what I did this morning.

I mean, I know I woke up, and I know I got out of bed. Those are givens. But before I got my first mug of coffee into me, I could have been sleep walking for all I know.

Yes, you guessed it: I'm one of those super annoying people who isn't themselves before they get some caffeine into their system. Nice to meet you.

I didn't used to be like this. In fact, I used to actually hate coffee.

I know, wild right?

Even the smell of it used to make me nauseous. Whenever my mom would brew a pot, I would make a big fuss about how much it "stunk" and would refuse to even try a sip.

Of course now that I'm older and work a 9-5 job, I'm a rather big fan of that "stinky" stuff.

Initially, it took quite a bit of work (and lots of cream) before I could actually finish an entire mug.

But now I am proud to say that I am drinking upwards of four a day. Is that an achievement? Not sure, but I'm going to pretend that it is.

I am still a little picky about how I enjoy my coffee, though.

It has to be hot. I will not drink lukewarm, or (ugh) room-temperature coffee. That's just not O.K. I have no shame in admitting that I will reheat the same mug several times before I actually finish it.

It also has to be medium roast. I'm sorry, all you dark-roasters out there, but that's just not my style.

Most of all, my coffee needs to be enjoyed while I am sitting and relaxing.

I have no interest in rushing my way through a glorious cup just because I have to be somewhere ASAP.

I don't care how busy my schedule is. I will take my time and enjoy my coffee because darn it, it deserves that kind of respect.
