An update on my coffee hiatus...

A week without coffee has officially passed. I feel quite proud that I have been able to resist its consumption, though yesterday I was kind of tempted. During a meander downtown, I passed by numerous coffee shops, with tantalizing aromas escaping their confines. Ahhh...the delicious smell of coffee! Up until those moments, I have completed avoided everything that has to do with coffee. There was a little hesitation at one point, though my will power won over in the end. Hurray! In place of coffee, I have been happily drinking tea. Our eclectic tea collection that has been neglected for some time is now being "cleaned out" as I sample a different type each day. Variety truly is the spice of life. The real test in this whole challenge, however, will come when Mr. Coffeemaker himself returns. Will I be swept back into the life of coffee addiction, or will my new found coffee-free confidence enable me to remain strong? Honestly, I'm hoping for that latter because in a strange way I feel kind of healthier without coffee. Hmmm. Stay tuned to find out what happens!
