It’s safe to come to my house for coffee again.
Let me tell you something about me:
I don’t “do” fat free nor sugar free.
Well, sugar free with the exception of Coke Zero.
I’m all over Coke Zero like stir-up pants on legs in the 80′s.
Otherwise… gimme fat and sugar… and also muffin top.
*holds up sword of principles*
*arms jiggle*
But I digress.
Not long ago I had some friends over. As always, coffee was present.
As always, cream and sugar was offered. Except… my friends showed me something that caused me great distress:
WHAT THE WHAT?
DO YOU SEE THAT?!!!
HOWWWWWWW?????!!!
ThoughI don’t do fat-free, it seems mine own hands chose this carton-o-sadness when I ran into the store “real quick” to get more half & half.
Boo – hiss.
In my defense, it was not on purpose. Simply an honest, YET STUPID mistake.
*eyes go wild*
I was embarrassed.
Yet I was relieved.
You see, my drip coffee had been less-than delicious recently… and though I was aghast I had fat free half & half in mine own refrigerator… I was actually relieved the issue was not because my coffee-making skills had taken a nose-dive.
PHEW.
I am happy to report I have rectified the situation.
An aside: I don’t think I like the word “rectified”.
I am now proudly serving coffee the way it should be served… with whole, untainted half & half.
As we were.

“Rectified.” You’re so funny.
Heehee, giggle…
Every time I hear the word “rectify”, I remember this line from the show “The Nanny”: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0106080/quotes?qt=qt0303011
Makes me laugh all over again, every time.
Ha! I’m not the only one!!! It IS a funny sounding word!
Bought gluten free instant mashed tators once accidently… bleck!
I AM SO SORRY!!!! That is simply awful!!!
Yep, rectified makes me crack up. There are just some things that should be full fat or sugar. I had some oatmeal at my in laws & it was sugar free, blech!
It is especailly bad who you don’t know… like taking a drink of water, but it turns out to be milk…. awful!
LOL I don’t do the sugar free thing either. Coffee and sugar go together like Twitter and #wineparty. Anything else is just blasphemy.
My husband and I decided to give up sugar until thanksgiving. Except one treat every 2 weeks. It is 3 weeks in. My pants are gettin’ all lose, my stomach is getting all flat. Is is worth it? Probably not. Give me back my muffin top and hand me over a good hot chocolate Sister. Until Thanksgiving . . . enjoy some sweets for me.
