We at Delightful coffee are all about coffee, and also cost, so for the sake of this article we'll looks at the large scale cost differences of having a cup made by a Keurig machine on average, versus visiting Starbucks, versus using your drip maker at home. Read on for more...
At my day job the other day the topic of Starbucks came up, and as neither I, nor any of my co-workers, had taken a break I opted to take the subject deeper, you know, for the sake of clarity. And for the sake of an article.
For those of you who, for some unknown and likely God forsaken reason read this site regularly (get a life already!) my apologies in not keeping the flow of stuff coming. As I watch our Facebook page grow for no known reason, and look at the stats of this site I'm dumbstruck that you folks actually read the tripe I scribble out on an irregular basis, which of course make me feel guilty by not scribbling more of it. "Nonsense," I say to myself, "just write when the mood strikes, damn the torpedoes! You do this, for free I might add, because you want to!" Guilt however is sometimes stronger than rationality, and I humbly take keyboard to task to craft something not entirely unreadable.
There isn't much to say here. I got up this morning to a splitting "Lack Of Coffee" caffeine headache so I thought, what the heck, write about it. Well, there is more top the story. I woke up at 5:45 AM, on a Sunday, with the chance at that time to make a pot, or even a cup, of delightful coffee but noped out and went back to bed. M.I.S.T.A.K.E.
We've all been there, regular consumption of coffee or other caffeine enhanced beverages, then we skip the routine, or wake up later than normal and BOOM, caffeine headache. Once I decided I'd think on this phenomena some, and maybe write on it, I decided to google why it happens, since I rarely give caffeine headaches much thought otherwise. Usually I just gobble something down, take a couple ibuprofen and was it all down with steaming black coffee.
Today it was well into the 80's where I live and I had a lot to do. The fact that today was the "Spring Forward" time change didn't help matters (why don't they cut that out? Huh? Huh
?) as I had basically an hour of my day lost, so an hour less to get it all done.
Smog my car (oh California, you regulate everything), get a hair cut before the hair cutting place got crazy busy (which leads to another post on another site later), drop by the store to get stuff, do laundry, and finally take care of the yard I have been neglecting for far too long. Not my fault, we've had weeks of rain each time I have wanted to mow, edge, weed and fertilize it. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
As I typically do, I waited to start the yard work until the day was at its hottest, and I was low on the concoction of life giving wonderfulness, delightful coffee.
