Today is National Coffee Day! It could be my new favorite day of the year! lol Chaitali is hosting a fun coffee-themed blog hop on her blog and I just had to join in! If you have time, you can whip up a coffee card and go join in as well! The linky is open until midnight and there are prizes to be won!
As part of the hop, we were asked to answer a few questions, so here goes:
1. When did you start drinking coffee? For me, it was back in college. I worked almost full-time and took a full classload, so I needed all the help I could get staying awake. It really started to be an addiction when I got my first real job and had to wake up before 6am!
2. What is your favorite brand? I'm a huge Starbucks fan and love their Vanilla Macchiato, Pumpkin Spice Latte, Peppermint Mocha, and White Mocha. For home coffee, I love Green Mountain brands in my Keurig.
3. What is the most amazing coffee that you had? Remember when and where? Strangely enough, at a friend's house! Her husband is VERY into coffee and they have their own espresso machine. He buys the beans at peak time and grinds them fresh for each cup. I love going to visit, but even more so if they offer up a cup of that deliciousness!
5. If I don't drink my needed coffee, I will.... Kill someone? lol Just kidding...kinda. With a toddler in the house, I need it to wake up and keep up with her. If I don't have it, I will be fighting a headache and fall over of exhaustion (probably before 9am).
Oh, and before I forget, I made a new Facebook page for my cards. I'd love for you to come by and say hi!
Lovely card and colors!

ReplyDeleteI keep trying to give up daily coffee, but then when I use it for a Friday afternoon treat, it reels me back in! Who am I kidding? I Love it!
