I recently "discovered" instant coffee! Can you believe it? What rock have I been living under to not know about instant coffee? LOL! I always thought it had to be brewed (don't laugh at me too loudly!) I am the only "coffee drinker" in my house;
Husband is just not into it! I used to have a coffee-maker, but I got rid of it because it wasn't efficient for just one person to use. While I enjoy the taste (and smell!) of coffee, I only drink it from time to time. But when I get the urge to have a taste, it comes on pretty strong!
So instead of getting it at a coffee shop (and spending way too much!), I picked up some instant, decaffeinated coffee! Yummy! I just pour a pre-packaged, single serving size of coffee into a mug, add hot water, and there I have it--instant coffee. I add a little french vanilla creamer and sugar and I'm good to go! I am solely into coffee for the taste, not for the caffeine, so this works well for me. It is extra cold here, so this has been a welcomed treat!
Stacie,
ReplyDeleteThis made me laugh. I can just imagine your excitement when you made your discovery. I am an ice tea drinker and I had a somewhat similar incident when I 'discover' tagless teabags for 1/2 the price of regular ones.
Have a wonderful day.
Hey Debbie,
ReplyDeleteYeah, I had to laugh at myself. . .it's the simple things that make a big difference!
My husband is the only coffee drinker in our house - but I love the smell of it! He usually brews a whole pot for himself on the weekends, so we get that lovely aroma wafting through the house!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
Hi Tracey, welcome and thanks for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteYes, there's nothing like the smell of freshly brewed coffee!!
Take care.
I have yet to discover instant coffee.. I love the way my coffee sounds as it is brewing in the morning the final brewing noise as it perculates is like my second alarm clock.
ReplyDeleteI doctor my coffee with lots of flavor so I am not sure instant would work well for me.. however I may place some packets along with some little creamers in my car for emergencies!
blessings & giggles

Hi Jeanie,
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by and leaving a few words! (welcome!!)
Yeah, there's something about the smell of freshly brewed coffee--there's just nothing like it! You're right though, instant coffee is great for "emergencies"!
Take care!!
