I love coffee. My favorite is dark roasted with 2 creams. Freshly brewed from beans every morning. I bring my own thermos of coffee to work. The office coffee is just not up to my standards.
Yes, I am a coffee snob. Not as bad as some though. But quite a bit picky.
In the Twin Cities, there are three "chain" coffee shops that I go to most often - Caribou Coffee, Dunn Bros Coffee and Starbucks. There are also several non-chain places I visit as well.
This week Caribou sent a $1.00 off coupon for any one of their summer drinks. Then Dunn Bros sent a "Load $10 on your Roastmaster Rewards card and receive a Free Drink Voucher." And today I got one from Starbucks offering me a free drink if I use my registered Starbucks card (which I don't have yet...).
Plus every month I use a few of the $3.00 off a pound of beans coupons from Dunn Bros. I've taken to buying both regular and decaf and making half-caf at home. This allows me to drink more coffee with less caffeine...which keeps the headaches at bay and helps me sleep.

You know me baby...it's McDonalds with 2 creams or good old Folger's. None of that designer coffee for me. I did love the coffee that they served in the local cafe when we were in Mexico. And part of that was because of the heavy mugs that they served it in and the wonderful pastries that we bought to have with it.
Okay I will have a cold latte' on occassion...and iced regular coffee is my favorite...no cream or sugar in the iced coffee. Just good strong coffee an loads of ice. Num...
You make me good coffee when I am there. Maybe it's soon time for a visit?? Can we get the spaghetti & meatballs from "Romano's Macaroni Grill"...too?
Love U, Mom
