It has been raining for almost a month with tiny breaks of several hours or one another more or less sunny day. Gray in all its shades overwhelmed nature, the town, and even a little bit of the soul. In such cases, it is...

Gina Wow, that's a long time. We've had almost persistent rain for nearly five days and it's already driving me crazy. I'm afraid I don't find long gray rainy days very inspiring. I'm spending far too much time sitting at my computer.

Gina @shshiju I envy you. Our garden is horribly neglected but I grow bonsai. I wouldn't get much coffee off a bonsai coffee tree though.

Gina @MALUSE I guess it's all a case of what we're used to. I was never brought up with "real" coffee or leaf tea so I'm happy to go on using what I know. Though to be honest I don't like tea. Maybe that's the reason.

Gina I don't know what a keurig is. Maybe it's not available in South Africa, or maybe I just haven't seen one.

Gina @Kandae11 The fresh rolls sound nice. I've never tried baking bread or rolls. In fact most of the food I buy is prepared stuff that only needs heating up.

Gina @Phelly02 I'm trying to cut down too, but some days are more difficult than others. If I got enough sleep every night I might give up drinking coffee altogether.

I got into quite a panic when I lost mine yesterday. When I took my car keys out of my pocket they pulled the house keys out with them, and those fell to the floor. It was raining at the time so that probably muffled the sound...

Gina @DesirousDreamer A caffeine overdose doesn't sound like fun. I try not to drink too much coffee, but on days when I don't get enough sleep I sometimes have more than I should.

Gina @hereandthere I've never seen 3-in-1 sachets. Does that include milk and sugar? I don't have sugar in my coffee, so that wouldn't suit me. And things that generate extra trash aren't a good thing.

Gina @Kandae11 I know what you mean about the aroma. Walking past coffee shops can be a really pleasant experience. Maybe I'm just lazy.

Gina @LadyDuck I guess anything is an acquired taste. I tried espresso once and found it much too strong for my liking. I do enjoy a good cappuccino when I'm out though, and I don't imagine they use instant coffee for that.

Gina I don't think that brand is available here. The one I buy isn't very expensive, but it's good enough for me.
