I never really found any taste for coffee. Have some diet sodas instead. Had to switch to diet after I started to get dizzy often from too much sugar.

Bought some diet soda this morning and got checked out by a cute cashier named Emily. Too young for me but nice on the eyes.
I found that drinking diet soda gives me NOTHING but an instant headache. I'm not big on soda anyway unless it's a Coke, but that's a rare treat for me because of the sugar content.

Root beer is another soda that I do like. Birch beer too for that matter, which I like even more. The rest are NOTHING to me.

My grandmother used to make homemade root beer. I remember lining the bottles up in the bathtub for a period of time to be sure the bottles wouldn't explode before refrigerating them. NOTHING but delicious!
