Interesting to see everyone's choice of coffee or hot tea. :) I like my morning coffee just black - but not necessarily strong. If I have any later in the day, then I enjoy it flavored or sweetened with creamer. My favorite Starbucks cup is just a regular latte with 1 sweet & low.

I also like hot tea in the winter - don't want that sweet either, but do like it citrus'y. Lipton Orange & Spice flavored Black Tea is my pick. :)

We had a big discussion about coffee and tea this morning. I drink coffee in the morning with fat-free Coffemate. Lori said she wished she was so disciplined. I told her if I cut back on little things I could eat more chocolate! I put a sprinkle (barely) of Splenda in mine sometime.

I was telling them I could never find a tea that I liked. Fewz offered some suggestions and Lori did too. I couldn’t find what Fewz suggested so I got Lori’s suggestion “Constant Comment” by Bigelow. It is flavored with oranges and sweet spice. I am going to try that. I just noticed I bought decaffeinated and didn’t mean to. It doesn’t matter.

Now I like my coffee as well as tea but it's a bit hard on my stomach and tea isn't as bad so I had to find a tea that was as much like coffee as I could find. I drink coffee and chicory along with tea during the day and limit my straight coffee to the morning. If you like citrus in black tea then you might like Lady Grey.

A tune to go with the Irish Breakfast..

I think you'd also like Constant Comment. It's very orange'y. I prefer coffee to tea, but a cup of hot tea is nice on a cold winters' afternoon.

Okay, now I need to get busy. Weekend company arriving tomorrow night.
