I’d rather drink creamer...


I know my titles may be confusing sometimes, but I do make a point to explain it somewhere along the way so please keep reading.

In honor of International Coffee Day, let’s talk coffee and stink bugs!

My husband and I were on our porch drinking coffee (no surprise there for those who know us) and fighting the stink bug population that has moved in to our yard. Out of nowhere a stink bug lands in my husband’s coffee cup.

For some reason I find it amusing. But for some reason he wasn’t amused. He grinned, but only because I was giggling like a fool.

He scoops out the stink bug and continues drinking. Yes, he did. He continued to drink it!

However, a stink bug landing in your coffee manages to change the smell and the taste of this wonderful magic in a cup. A few minutes later his hot cup of coffee is being dumped across the yard as he is sticking his tongue out like a small child who just tasted a lemon for the first time.

And what do you know I start giggling like a fool again. And believe it or not it’s not the last time I giggled like this over the cup of coffee.

The next time I giggled like a fool is when he said “I’d rather drink creamer.” He hates cream in his coffee and never drinks it. He always says I drink chick coffee. Well, guess what? Yeap, I am a chick!

But I guess given the option to choose between vanilla caramel creamer (my favorite) or earthy stink bug flavored coffee he would rather drink creamer.

My husband did inform that it was a very hard decision to make!

Note: No stink bugs were harmed in the photo shoot, however one may be overly caffeinated and ready to take over the world!

  1. You should become a coffee farmer. Plant coffee beans instead of green beans.

    1. I am sure my husband would enjoy that as long as he can keep the stink bugs away!
