RE: May 30 Days Writing Challenge - Day Ten: What’s Your Favorite Morning Drink: Coffee, Tea, Water, Juice? Why?
That's really too bad you've been scarred for life against OJ. I get the idea that whatever it was your mom had you drinking when you were younger was about as far away from actual orange juice as you could get. There's all kinds of orange flavored drinks, but they're not really orange juice. Oh, well, maybe someday you'll get a taste for it.
Coffee isn't something I drink. The few times I've been down a coffee bean aisle, I get a headache from the contact buzz. Some beans smell better than others, but anyway. Not feeling it.
That's quite a breakfast drink journey you have. Mine wasn't nearly as interesting. :)
Oh that good OJ on a hot sunny morning. Yep, I'm there lol. It gives good energy and a good feeling too. But only when it's the real stuff.
I agree. I wasn't ever a fan of Sunny Delight (the stuff my wife bought when our boys were growing up), but they of course loved it. I don't remember having tang all that much before that when I was growing up, but I'm pretty sure we did. It was okay, but you knew it wasn't orange juice.
I know what @maverickinvictus is going through, though. I had a similar experience with strawberries after eating way too many of them picking over a field one year. The good thing is they didn't weigh us at the beginning and the end of the day.
It took three years for me to eat another strawberry, and from there, I just don't like them nearly as much as I used to. It was my own fault, though. :) My oldest son, his wife and my wife all love them.
It's the same for Shepherds Pie. I cannot stand it anymore. My husband likes it and well... He can make it if he wants to :p lol
I guess that's where eating in moderation comes in. The more we eat the same thing over and over again, the more we just get used to it and it gets boring. Well, that and the fact that our palates change over time, and also, that we might not have liked the food as much as we thought we did. I've noticed that there are some things that I've eaten that I thought were great the first time around don't live up to the memory the second time around. Level of hunger has a lot to do with it, too.
So, in other words, sorry to say, but I think the cards are stacked against us. :)
Yeah Glen it was so artificial and I don't even know why it was manufactured!!
Tried fresh Orange Juice and most likely it is just in my head but I don't like the taste as it seems I taste that Sunny Orange Concentrate again haha
Oh I just love the smell of coffee beans and when it is freshly grounded.
I agree with you there on the smell of coffee beans. Not gonna go on saying about how good it smells. It wont be appropriate for this chat XD
