Coffee Extras

In my opinion, there are two great places to enjoy your coffee: a comfortable cafe or a relaxing room in your house. Great cafes should provide good lighting--not too much!--and cushioned couches and chairs to settle back in. Preferably, the cafe will have nooks and alcoves to sit in for private conversations. When at home, the livingroom couch and some alone-time suffices for a self-indulgent session with a cup of heaven.

I brew a lot of coffee at home, but when I buy a cup around town, I pretty much exclusively buy a Cafe Mocha---a Breve Cafe Mocha at that. Breve (pronounced BRE-vay) merely means that half & half is used instead of milk. Anyhow, I used to really like Starbucks Cafe Mocha, but then, after a few months, the chocolate they used really started to disgust me. So I'd buy Cafe Mochas from Gloria Jeans and The Coffee Bean. Their chocolate is definately superior, but now I'm getting disenchanted again. I wonder why that is.

McDonalds regular coffee is good as long as you use cream and sugar in the right amounts.
