Why I Love Folger's Coffee


     I love coffee.  My husband is feeding the addiction by purchasing me a Keurig Coffee machine recently for Christmas.  I have become quite the coffee connoisseur.  I can sip on a cup, roll it on my palette, and determine the pronounced flavors within the roast before even looking on the tag lines advertised on the box.  I can pick and choose from a line which coffees are medium, dark, and light, and I can tell you which coffees are higher quality than others.  I LOVE COFFEE.  All kinds.  Black, rich, light, creamed, sugared, decaf, half caf...it doesn't matter.  I think coffee is a wonderful blessing from above, and I can tell you now when I have babies someday and the doctor tells me to lay off the coffee, tears will be shed.  

I say all that to say this.  Nothing beats a morning cup of Folger's Classic Roast.  It truly is the best part of waking up.  It's the soft and soothing rumble coming from the Mr. Coffee in the morning, and then the chest-nutty/almond scent that begins filling the kitchen and then somehow travels down the hallway and into my bedroom... as if to gently tug me towards the sun.  It's the way it tastes coupled with a piece of wheat toast and jelly.  It's the way it reminds me off my childhood, and reminds me of sitting on the couch for hours on end in the morning talking with Dad and Valda...refilling cup after cup while we talk and enjoy time spent together.  It's mornings sitting on the couch snuggled next to my husband, and sharing Folger's breath kisses while cartoons blast in the background.  Simply put...Folger's is home.  No matter how many k-cups I buy, no matter how many flavors, Folger's will always be my morning cup of choice.  

Now, off to get a refill. ;)
