Mmmm… Decaf?

I never drink decaf.

However, it got well into the evening and there was just a cup or so of coffee in the second pot, with us both knowing we’d want more but not necessarily needing the caffeine.

Three of the sample bags of Boston’s Best coffee are decaf, which seems useful to have around just in case.  I broke one out and brewed a little on top of the remaining leaded stuff, about a three to one ratio.

I decided to open the French Roast.  It smells as bad as I’d expect, in bean form, but at least mixed with the regular coffee it’s not bad.  I’m not fond of a dark, burnt roast like that, which explains my disdain for Starbucks.

Fast forward to my waking up at 9:30 from laying down with the girls while they went to sleep.  Which I think they didn’t do until I set the example.  Two mugs of that sure felt and tasted good.

But it still seems weird to be drinking decaf, even spiked a little.

My brain hasn’t fully woken up yet, since that hour and a half or so of nap.  I was able to do the followup on the outage, but other than that, I found I couldn’t remember anything about anything I might be needing to get done.

1. I’m with you on Starbucks. I do not like burnt taste/so strong it doesn’t taste like coffee to me. I will say when we were with Wayne in Ohio he took us to a Starbucks at which I just said “no thanks” but he had me taste his and it was good. It was something fancy and I think the sweetness covered the strong taste.When I’m on a “healthy” kick I will mix the regular with decaf which I do not really taste or feel any difference.
