thanks for all the replies.....i don't actually start jonesing for it. but i do even enjoy the ritual of making it.
i like having it next to me. i'm not drinking gallons of it and the wife and i use a 50/50 mix of decaf and regular. i used to drink gourmet coffees years ago before i started slamming alcohol.
but with a vodka stomach i stopped. another great benefit from alcohol being gone is food seems to taste so much better. plus i can eat ice cream now. i used to love stopping in at baskin robbins and getting a cup.
but when i was drinking heavily i couldn't stand to try any dairy products. so many befefits of the sober life.
