A Coffeeholic, I Am ...

I love the weekends, even more so when a holiday goes along with it. We're having a nice 4 day long weekend over here in conjunction with the celebration of Aidilfitri (celebrated by Muslims around the world). I'm just gonna stay home all weekend and vegetate ... LOL!

The first thing I normally do when I get up is to go down and my steaming mug of coffee is always ready for me courtesy of my lovely beloved wife who spoils me by preparing it for me. Yes, I cannot start my day properly if I don't have my coffee. I'm a grouch, a monster even if I'm deprived of my morning coffee. I'm totally addicted to coffee!

I can drink coffee in any form, it doesn't matter if it's black, white, green, yellow or whatever. As long as there's coffee beans in it, I'll drink it. It's been an addiction since I was a wee little kid. I know people say coffee is supposed to be bad for you or something like that but I really couldn't care less. Take my coffee away from me and I'll pulverize you. Hmmm, now come to think of it, yeah, coffee sure does sound like it's bad for you ... LOL!

We don't brew our own coffee or anything like that here. The wife and me normally buy the instant kind of coffee for our daily use at home cos one, it's cheaper and two, the amount of coffee and the crazy times I require coffee, instant coffee seems like the best option for me. We've tried all the brands of instant coffee out there in the market, the branded stuff, the real low quality stuff and I've decided on this particular brand of instant coffee that is just to my liking for my daily consumption. The taste is so good that it simply beats the more branded ones flat out.

When we do feel the need (yes, wife is a semi coffee addict too) to have some freshly brewed coffee, we'll just go out and get some, They are a few places near our house that serves up some interestingly brewed coffee of various flavours. The wife actually brought back some local coffee beans from her hometown a couple of months ago when she went back but it's all gone now with my consumption rate. That local coffee that she brought back was excellent and she brewed a whole jug during the weekends and it normally doesn't last through the morning ... hehehe ... yes, I totally finish it all by myself!

I told you I was a coffee addict didn't? Actually what I would really love is to have one of those fancy schmancy coffee machines. Now that would be cool. Imagine getting up in the morning and just walking down to the kitchen and just pressing a button and you get your hot steaming mug of coffee or espresso all ready to be consumed :) But until someone buys me one for my birthday or Christmas, that's just gonna be a dream only .... siggghhh ... and if any of you do decided to surprise (*hint, hint*) me with one, I can recommend a few places you can find some cool looking espresso machines that would make my mornings a dream come true ... LOL!

Hmmm, honey you know what? With all that money you're making from postings, maybe you could surprise me with one soon ... hehehe .... please, pretty please ... Ok folks, I'm gonna go make myself another mug of coffee and then sit back with a good book and laze the holidays away.
