"This morning was rather odd one. I was chatting with a friend about hive and then splinterland. Suddenly, the water in the glasses were moving, even the coffee I made the other night too. I looked around my room and the things were moving too. I panicked for a while and wanting to grab my laptop. In the end though, I went outside, to make sure I was not hallucinating. I have PTSD when it comes to earthquake so sometimes I am very alert when it comes to trembles or when the ground is moving. And my neighbors and housemate know this, so they often say that " It's probably just you". I went back inside but I was obviously skeptical." @macchiata
Today seemed like a perfect day to set those wobble-inducing thoughts aside and simply live life. I decided a good place to start was a café not too far from home where I knew I'd find a decent toasted sandwich and reasonable coffee." @galenkp
And wow did he do a great job of it! As luck would have it he managed to get a pitch for his mobile liquid black gold sales wagon right on the side of a canal junction in Braunston. We just had to go and now that we are mobile again this was our first destination. @scubahead
First few days when we visited, weather was actually very nice so we could sit outside and enjoy our coffees. Then the cold and rainy weather arrived so we moved inside." @nikolina
On the second morning, as we went around town (we stayed in the Sta Fe area -- popularly for restos and cafes and the most active town on the entire island), I saw this cute little shop ~~
It’s called the Coffee Corner." @tangatraveller
"So... on this happy sunny October day (not like yesterday: misty and gloomy) my heart goes on! It was my wife who followed our babygirl to school today, and I stayed at home (have a lot of work for my job recently). We drank tea at breakfast ... and when my wife returned home, she brought a surprise! And not one, but two, two pleasant surprises. She loves to pamper me, and she knows how-to. On her way back, she walked into the lovely local Bonapé mini-bakery and bought a huge Napoleon-type cake (I love puff pastry, that's my weak spot :). Lately, we used to try how this cake is prepared in different cafes.It is delicious, when its prepared correctly. Needless to say, that it absolutely inspired me -- and triggered creating of a great coffee!" @qwerrie
I’ve always been a nocturnal person, finding comfort in the pleasure of my thoughts at 2 AM and feeling the coldness of physical loneliness inside my room. This time of the day is where my inner self is the loudest, and I’m addicted to the sense of philosophical belongingness in midnight conversations.But for you, the morning is your friend. Maybe that’s why you love coffee because they go hand-in-hand together. I can picture you with a book in hand, sipping an americano embraced by the winds of trees around your house. I get how beautiful it must feel, but I always resort to extend my sleep and bury myself in the warmth of my bed." @eudadol
"Once again I stopped off at the Wholesome Hippo Cafe again on my morning walk and did a bit of off piste ordering. My favourite coffee has always be a Cortado and it’s not on their menu so as the saying goes if you don’t ask you don’t get. It did take a little while not only to work out what a Cortado is but also what to charge as its not on the till selection but I did get exactly what I wanted and nicer than the local Costa too. The staff there are really accommodating and willing to take a bit of time over an order. A lot of places will just say they don’t do it but the girls there took the time to look it up and made a very nice Cortado." @diveratt
I say partially because I do this every once in a while when I notice some subtle changes in my body's reaction to constant caffeine.
Okay, I love to drink coffee. It's common knowledge that coffee is a stimulant that keeps the body alert, enhances concentration by increasing our energy dose and decreasing fatigue. "
@kemmyb
As you can see, you must have already discovered because it was some coffee sweets that are so good that it is hard to resist them and as we cannot always have a cup of coffee if we eat some of these sweets we have prolonged moments of pleasure and still for On top, these sugarless candies are new coffee candies that have come out and are really delicious."@ricestrela
"The first time I drunk coffee is when I was in kindergarten. So, as a human who lives with coffee as my energy drink, I really excited to visit this place. According to the articles that I read (and the information that I got at that place), this is the second-largest Starbucks Roastery in the world (the number one is in Chicago). I tell you something: it's amazingly huge! I think this building is the size of half the size of a football field (it can be excessive).
It's right in the shopping center/tourism district in Shanghai (that's why it's crowded). The building doesn't look like a coffee shop, it's more like a museum or art gallery (which is true)." @kingnamazu09
"When I was not a coffee drinker, but they invite me one in a house or took me to a coffee shop or bakery and out of courtesy I could not say no, because I asked for a coffee with milk or a cup of tea, but now that I drink coffee I drink it black or guayoyo with enough sugar, in fact my husband tells me that what I drink is sugar with coffee" @actioncats
"One of the things that I love to do on the weekend is to share with my younger brother, I really have a lot of fun with him, you have many occurrences which makes me laugh a lot. He is a coffee lover just like me, I know that it is not recommended to give it to children in excess and for that reason we don't give it to them very often, however he loves coffee with powdered or liquid milk, as you want to accompany it, just like me, it is our favorite coffee."

This isn't your regular latte and not your regular dalgona too. Dalgona was known to be placed on top of the milk but this was different. Read on to know more about this spontaneous DIY coffee that spiced up my regular Saturday!" @nikkabomb
"Yesterday I just shopped for some of my daily needs, and without realizing it, I bought quite a lot of instant coffee. Initially I wanted to buy some snacks and coffee online at my subscription shop, Hari Hari Karya Bersama, but when I looked at the drinks section I unknowingly put quite a number of types of coffee into my shopping cart and when I wanted to check out my order I just realized that half a dozen of my groceries is instant coffee." @sweetest
"This summer really make my throat hurt because of the shortage of drinking water or maybe excretion of the body are sweating constantly makes me easily tired and dehydrated.
For that I have to really pay attention to the consumption of drinking water which is enough for the body.
But even so, the summer when I need a refreshing drink.
I make a drink that ingredienst derived from nature.
Incidentally, the mint leaves in the house can be harvested." @aswita
"I attended an invitation to a wedding reception at a place in my area. As soon as I arrived at the event, I saw the event was so luxurious and I was amazed. I went to the buffet table where dishes were prepared to be eaten together. I took a piece of meat and enjoyed a plate of rice. At the event which was held very luxuriously, while enjoying coffee we could see the beauty of the aisle decorations that were decorated in such a way. And it's very expensive for a single rental. And very good with tradition and culture of wedding reception for a princess and king." @afridany1
"This is a coffee car that only offers coffee drinks, namely black coffee and sanger or milk coffee. This coffee car was present when we were watching the rafting match. Since there are only two types of coffee drinks in the coffee car, we only ordered two coffees, milk or sanger."
