Iced Coffee

by Peachy on April 25, 2012

in beverages, coffee

Today is as good as any to have a big glass of Iced Coffee…….

I imagined that if I didn’t I’d immediately go into spontaneous combustion…It’s 33°  out there, you know.

And I’m kinda stuck here at the shop….really wanting to watch The Avengers in 3D with vivid imagination of what my movie snacks would be while I sit on a soft chair in that cool cinema atmosphere….buttered popcorn with extra butter, Nacho Chips topped with cheese, garlic cream and ground beef, a giant chocolate chip cookie and a large  Cherry Lemonade.

Oh gosh.

Do you think there’s something wrong with me?

How else could you explain these things that go on in my head?

It must be the heat… must be. Are you going to watch The Avengers today?

Bear with me. I wanted to bake some Maple Oats Scones but I just couldn’t make myself go near the oven because of this heat.

Do you know if Thor likes Maple Oats Scones?

Iced Coffee ~ my go-to beverage when I’m…

a. sleepy

b. tired

c. sad

d. depressed

e. bored and I can’t go out!!!

    since it’s hot, i don’t want to drink coffee yet i want coffee. so this is perfect for the coffee tantrums! I want to watch Avengers too and I bought few dvd sales on Astroplus so I think I wouldn’t mind being homestuck then XD

    hi peachkins, yes, when the weather is hotter than usual, the mood to cook is also gone.  for me, i wont think much of food, it will be more of water. gassy drinks with ice cubes.. especially coke or 7up- a reat thirst quencher. have a nice day

    I like how you had the iced coffee in a cute drink jar. Something for summer other than the usual iced tea and lemonade.

    Those warm temperatures sound rather wonderful.  We’re heading into winter now after a summer where the temperature didn’t ever get over 30C and mostly was a lot cooler than that.  We’re not ready for the cold.  But your iced coffee I could drink anytime xx

    Heh.  I like to dip my extra buttery popcorn in the extra cup of nacho cheese I got from the snack bar.  I can actually hear my arteries seize :)
