Coffee, Tea & Me. Many of you know of my love affair with coffee. Our courtship began when I was very young. After sneaking a little sip from my mother's coffee cup, I immediately became infatuated with Joe.
In my early 20's, Joe was my pick-me-up friend. Every morning, we enjoyed our time together with a little cream but no sugar. Before I knew it, Joe and I were seriously dating. Our conversations were very stimulating and our time together was warm and exciting. Some labeled us as 'friends with benefits,' but I knew that something bigger was brewing between us.
My 30's flew by and I barely noticed that I'd become addicted to Joe. My day began and ended, in a ritualistic fashion, holding on to Joe and needing more. Life got more complicated and I found myself wondering if we were really meant for each other.
Along came my 40's and the daily grind was beginning to take its toll. As with any relationship, things can get bitter after awhile. I had been seeing Joe for over 20 years and I felt the perk in our relationship was starting to fizzle. That's when I met Tea. I felt a little guilty about two-timing Joe, but Tea was pretty wonderful and had so much to offer, I just couldn't resist.
It didn't take long for Joe to discover that I was sipping Tea. Surprisingly, the two became friends and both agreed to share me. I was delighted, as I couldn't bring myself to end it with Joe or Tea. Now, I start my day with Joe and I end it with Tea. It's the best of both worlds, and now Coffee, Tea & Me are one big happy family!
