"This morning was rather odd one. I was chatting with a friend about hive and then splinterland. Suddenly, the water in the glasses were moving, even the coffee I made the other night too. I looked around my room and the things were moving too. I panicked for a while and wanting to grab my laptop. In the end though, I went outside, to make sure I was not hallucinating. I have PTSD when it comes to earthquake so sometimes I am very alert when it comes to trembles or when the ground is moving. And my neighbors and housemate know this, so they often say that " It's probably just you". I went back inside but I was obviously skeptical." @macchiata

He was also a diving instructor and when circumstances allowed us tomre open he did a spot of diving with us. Upon his return to the UK he set about converting a horse trilerminto a coffee shop. Thatās right a horse trailer. Yup, into a coffee shop.
And wow did he do a great job of it! As luck would have it he managed to get a pitch for his mobile liquid black gold sales wagon right on the side of a canal junction in Braunston. We just had to go and now that we are mobile again this was our first destination. @scubahead

One of the best places we visited was Pogon coffee bar where we went almost every day during Mirai's stay in Novi Sad. Interior and exterior
First few days when we visited, weather was actually very nice so we could sit outside and enjoy our coffees. Then the cold and rainy weather arrived so we moved inside." @nikolina

My newfound love for moonlight shadows and coffee aroma resides in the stories behind my students' works. I have learned to find a piece of their spirits in their writings. It's a tug of war as a guy who bathes coffee in the moonlight." @eudadol

Unfortunately, they served one of those instant coffees which still tasted good -- but not as much as the brewed ones :(
On the second morning, as we went around town (we stayed in the Sta Fe area -- popularly for restos and cafes and the most active town on the entire island), I saw this cute little shop ~~
Itās called the Coffee Corner." @tangatraveller

With intentions of consuming a Java Monster. While tapping out part three of The Java Monsters. I must say, this Java Monster Energy drink I am enjoying is not my regular flave, I have not been able to find the Swiss Mocha that I love so much. This flave is quite tasty. It has a definite kick to it, and a great vanilla flavor." @krazzytrukker

It is a drink that you get it frequently with a street vendor or not, in the street, low cost and comforting. It is almost like chocolate, it is rare that someone does not like chicha. I don't usually consume it much on the street, as it is not something I frequently consume and I believe in my abilities to say that many of the things I try on the street, I prepare better myself." @any94

Iāve always been a nocturnal person, finding comfort in the pleasure of my thoughts at 2 AM and feeling the coldness of physical loneliness inside my room. This time of the day is where my inner self is the loudest, and Iām addicted to the sense of philosophical belongingness in midnight conversations.But for you, the morning is your friend. Maybe thatās why you love coffee because they go hand-in-hand together. I can picture you with a book in hand, sipping an americano embraced by the winds of trees around your house. I get how beautiful it must feel, but I always resort to extend my sleep and bury myself in the warmth of my bed." @eudadol

This cafe has been around for a long time, but I have never been here. That was the first time I came here with Trang. The cafe shop is located near a river, so the atmosphere is very fresh and airy. Everything around is beautiful. I think it will become our familiar dating place in the future.One of the many wonderful things about being in a cafe is the atmosphere. The walls are draped with colorful paintings and leaves, there's a nice smell coming from somewhere, and people are talking to each other having casual conversations. It feels good to be in a place where you can just enjoy a moment for what it is and not worry about what going on around you." @kimloan

My favourite coffee has always be a Cortado and itās not on their menu so as the saying goes if you donāt ask you donāt get. It did take a little while not only to work out what a Cortado is but also what to charge as its not on the till selection but I did get exactly what I wanted and nicer than the local Costa too. The staff there are really accommodating and willing to take a bit of time over an order. A lot of places will just say they donāt do it but the girls there took the time to look it up and made a very nice Cortado." @diveratt

Such are the statistics in international trade, my friends.Do you, my friends, know such information? To get a lethal dose of caffeine for yourself (or, so to speak, commit suicide), you just need to drink a hundred cups of coffee. And right away. Did you know, my friends, that coffee with milk is very poorly absorbed during digestion due to the combination of tonin and casein. These substances are poorly digested in the body individually, and together can cause flatulence." @antikus369

Normally, I sleep for like four to five hours at a stretch every night with maybe one or two restroom breaks. My sleeping pattern changed about a week ago, the reason being I tried to wean myself off coffee partially.
I say partially because I do this every once in a while when I notice some subtle changes in my body's reaction to constant caffeine.
Okay, I love to drink coffee. It's common knowledge that coffee is a stimulant that keeps the body alert, enhances concentration by increasing our energy dose and decreasing fatigue. "

As you can see, you must have already discovered because it was some coffee sweets that are so good that it is hard to resist them and as we cannot always have a cup of coffee if we eat some of these sweets we have prolonged moments of pleasure and still for On top, these sugarless candies are new coffee candies that have come out and are really delicious."@ricestrela

"The first time I drunk coffee is when I was in kindergarten. So, as a human who lives with coffee as my energy drink, I really excited to visit this place. According to the articles that I read (and the information that I got at that place), this is the second-largest Starbucks Roastery in the world (the number one is in Chicago). I tell you something: it's amazingly huge! I think this building is the size of half the size of a football field (it can be excessive).
It's right in the shopping center/tourism district in Shanghai (that's why it's crowded). The building doesn't look like a coffee shop, it's more like a museum or art gallery (which is true)." @kingnamazu09

My coffee budget for the week is gonna be under 9$ and I was expecting to spend that much. I asked ā is that medium or dark roast?. Then the cute barista replied, ā medium roast and you can also choose either you want it to be two Brazilian or with this Sulawesiā. I replied ā alright, hereās my card. I want one Brazilian and another Toraja Sapan Villageā. The cashier swiped my card then said, ā thatād be 17.57$. My expression changed a bit as it was way above my coffee budget. But, then I was like, ā itās okay thatāll last me for a while or I can share it with the neighbor who is a barista. And seem to fancy some foreign coffees." @macchiata

Different from coffee in other places, coffee at Jameun Kupi has a classic concept feel. At Jameun Kupi I ordered sugarcane coffee, which is coffee without sugar, the coffee is mixed with sugar cane juice.Sugarcane coffee is a way of drinking coffee from the ancient Acehnese, where sugar was very difficult to find in Aceh. So the Acehnese used to mix coffee with sugarcane juice so that the coffee would taste sweet." @yayan

I think to drink a cup of coffee we can do it anytime and there is no limit. So, we need coffee to live a hard day. And the most important thing is always a balanced intake of coffee and mineral water in your body.
This time, I will tell you my experience about a local coffee shop that I visited today, that Koppi Tomi." @isdarmady

"When I was not a coffee drinker, but they invite me one in a house or took me to a coffee shop or bakery and out of courtesy I could not say no, because I asked for a coffee with milk or a cup of tea, but now that I drink coffee I drink it black or guayoyo with enough sugar, in fact my husband tells me that what I drink is sugar with coffee" @actioncats

"One of the things that I love to do on the weekend is to share with my younger brother, I really have a lot of fun with him, you have many occurrences which makes me laugh a lot. He is a coffee lover just like me, I know that it is not recommended to give it to children in excess and for that reason we don't give it to them very often, however he loves coffee with powdered or liquid milk, as you want to accompany it, just like me, it is our favorite coffee."

"Yesterday I just shopped for some of my daily needs, and without realizing it, I bought quite a lot of instant coffee. Initially I wanted to buy some snacks and coffee online at my subscription shop, Hari Hari Karya Bersama, but when I looked at the drinks section I unknowingly put quite a number of types of coffee into my shopping cart and when I wanted to check out my order I just realized that half a dozen of my groceries is instant coffee." @sweetest

You feel so good in the forest, the clean air is like balm. It is pleasant to collect Ivan-tea, there is a lot of it in the forest in the glades and edges. But one day it was at this place that I met wolves. They came out of the forest, but they did not catch my scent, because the wind was blowing from them." @antikus369

"I attended an invitation to a wedding reception at a place in my area. As soon as I arrived at the event, I saw the event was so luxurious and I was amazed. I went to the buffet table where dishes were prepared to be eaten together. I took a piece of meat and enjoyed a plate of rice. At the event which was held very luxuriously, while enjoying coffee we could see the beauty of the aisle decorations that were decorated in such a way. And it's very expensive for a single rental. And very good with tradition and culture of wedding reception for a princess and king." @afridany1
