Katie & TThe History of Coffeeeeeeee

Believe it or not there was a time. I didnt like coffee.... Yup............ Let that sink in.....There was a time that I DID NOT LIKE COFFEE... That sounds about as odd as me not trying to help anyone or make a sarcastic remark....

Growing up my dad always had coffee every morning. I hated the smell. One day I asked my dad to try it and it was sooooooooooooo gross. I could not figure out how he could drink this stuff on a daily basis... Then again he drank beer that tasted like the cans it was stored in.... So maybe it was  a taste thing.

As I got older nothing really changed. People offered me coffee all the time.... And I knew I didn't like it so I never drank it...

Then I met Liz and Luke and they invited me to come have coffee after work at steak n shake... I went more to hang out with Luke and to get to know Liz than for the coffee that I knew I didn't like. When we went to Steak N Shake, Liz put cream and sugar in her coffee.... After putting a looot of this in the coffee it was actually drinkable. lol

So I was able to drink coffee and hang out with them. And it became a regular thing for us to go have coffee and hang out in Steak N Shake after work. Its how I met and got close with some of my most awesome friends. When Steak N Shake started their non smoking policy. We moved coffee night to our apartment. And we started doing flavored creamers.. That is when the real addiction started. You can make coffee taste like almost anything... Its amazing. Thanks to Coffee-mate. One of the best inventions ever. Since then I have tried random coffees at places like Starbucks and The Bread Co, and a personal fave Picasso's in St. Charles.

So I guess I can thank Liz & Luke for starting an awesome yummy addiction.lol
