There is no doubt about it that I love a good coffee, but I have been struggling with the coffee we make at home. We have tried everything from the cheapy brands to the more expensive varieties such as Van Houtte and Tim Hortons, but still not really liking it from home. What could it be....the coffee maker, the water....not sure. Sometimes Chris and I will run out to Tim Horton's on the weekend, just so I can have a coffee. Cause to Chris, coffee is coffee and he will drink anything.
Everyday during the week I stop at a nearby Country Style (cause it is on my way to work) and pick up my usual 2 cream, 1 sugar. When I have the extra time, I will get a Timmy's. I make a pot or two at work (not just for me of course) and usually by the end of the day, I have consumed around 3 to 4 cups. I know, it is a lot, but I have considered cutting back until the devil was discovered. It wasn't that I didn't know about this devil, but over the last couple of months the devil has been one of my best friends (don't worry Sandra, the devil will never replace you). So you are probably wondering who this infamous "devil" is...okay I will tell you. Her name is Bailey. Bailey's Irish Cream that is. I love it....I can even drink the coffee from home, that I have never really enjoyed.
They (the LCBO) now have a few different varieties of Bailey's from Caramel and Mint, to the good old Original. Another type of "coffee creamer" that I really enjoy is Starbucks Cream Liquor. I highly recommend this one as it is very, very tasty.
I guess the moral of this story is....get me some Bailey's and I will drink the coffee from home so I don't have to send Chris out to Timmy's on bitterly cold mornings like this weekend.
As I sit and complete this post, I am getting up to get another coffee to enjoy with my new friend Bailey. Cheers!
Busy busy busy!
