Too much drip coffee aggravates my ulcer and makes me jittery. And I like the social aspect of going to a coffee house. But there indie coffee places in downtown Everett. At home I also drink Medaglia d’Oro instant. It’s not your grandfathers instant coffee. It’s very good, and can also be used in recipes.
I usually only drink a cup in the morning. Maybe a cup after lunch if I’m drooping. In the summer I drink sun tea of some sort. Usually a flavored tea or something else high falutin.
I drank way too much coffee when I was in college. Fortunately never got an ulcer. Not sure why I managed to avoid one though.
