I miss drinking coffee. High blood pressure prevents me from enjoying the buzz and aroma in the house which totally sucks! I’ve read many articles on this subject, it seems that there is no solid evidence one way or the other on this subject but I know 100% for sure that coffee does raise my blood pressure because I have a BP machine in the kitchen always ready to go. It’s a serious daily battle that I must win each day or in time, I’ll be six feet under before my time. Everyone’s system is different and there are so many different compounds in coffee that one diagnosis could never fit everyone. Would you like to purchase my mini Mr. Coffee?
I love coffee, we have been drinking decaf for quite a while now due to health issues, (not mine) I don’t know if I could give it up!
You have my sympathy
Haha, Derrick! Enjoy a cuppa for me won’t ya? I hope your feeling better, the head cold going away.
A day without a cup of coffee would be very hard for me….
It would be initially, but your brain will adjust to having no coffee!
They make Coffee scented Warmers that might do the trick as long as you don’t drink them. I say keep Me. Coffee for heating single cups of water or for serving Coffee if friends are over.
Old Mr. Coffee isn’t going anywhere, what is a coffee scented warmer? Duh.
I don’t have any actual friends here, but plenty of people I see often when out and about. One dude is from Michigan, it’s nice to chat with someone who knows what the Yooper is among other things. 😂
You buy a Wax Candle Warmer (Yes, they make them for men) pretty much anywhere. (Walmart, Target, Amazon) then you get different scent cubes for them.
Now, I am going to Google the word “Yooper”. Thanks
Oh, I see, thanks. That wouldn’t do the trick. So, tell me what a Yooper is. 😂
You already know! Plus, I believe you are one!
Yes I do!
I only drink tea but my hubby grinds the beans and enjoys his coffee.
I bet those beans smell goood! 😂❤️
Tea work well for you, John. I know it’s not the same, but there is a mellower kick. 😉
I’ve never been a tea drinker, I’ve adjusted pretty well to not drinking that delicious liquid!
Seems like you’re totally over it. Agreed. 😉
Yep, it’s enough of a battle daily with the BP without coffee too!
I do kind of understand. Had high BP while pregnant with my daughter. Man, they were on me. A tough one, well, she still is in a way.
Having two children myself, I have a huge appreciation for what women deal with during the birth process. The kids mother developed blood clots while pregnant with our son, she had to wear some kind of bag things around her legs, and take blood thinners. Blood clots are so dangerous! She was fine.
I’m so glad to hear that. Yes, there is a lot involved and not really spoken about. I was surprised even as I was discovering all of it.
Those moments during birth are still clearly burned into my brain man…
Same.here.
Of this I have zero doubt!
It raises mine too but I can have decaf, so that’s what I do.
That’s cool that you like the decaf, for me that’s like drinking beer with no booze. 😂
LOL! True, you get used it. Pete’s make a really good dark one though. Triple dose it😀
Pete’s coffee? It seems like I’ve heard of them before…
Store. Chain too. They have good coffee.
I think the postage would be worth more than the coffee pot. I am sorry that you cannot enjoy your morning coffee. I am not that into it but I do have one small cup each morning while I am checking the weather and reading the news. I find it so odd the way people always have a cup of coffee in their hands now – driving, shopping, walking in the park. Strange.
I have adjusted well to no coffee but man I love the buzz and smell! I suppose that you could thank companies like Starbucks and others for that.
I never liked Starbucks because the coffee actually stinks to me, and the prices are ludicrous for a coffee that’s very bad for you because of the crap they add to it.
People that buy that crap from these companies had better not get on about fuel prices!
Here we have Starbucks, Tim’s, and Robins plus service station coffee and the like. I don’t know how people afford it ALL of the time. Dan buys one large Robins coffee on his way home from night shift. I have my one little cup and he nukes the rest and has it when he gets up.
I loved the Timmy’s in my hometown, yummy coffee and more.
There isn’t one Tim’s down here and I checked! I call Starbucks, Starbutts. OK, that’s weird but whatever!
It’s funny how the word Nuke is used to describe a Magnetron. That’s the part that heats up your stuff in the microwave. Here’s a link that will explain what a Magnetron is:

We don’t drink Tim’s coffee but once in a while Dan will stop there to pick up a breakfast sandwich for me. Thank for the link!
Ya welcome, I love those sandwiches!! Mmmm
