Do you still have your morning cup of coffee/tea on very hot summer mornings?

kieungoc @kieungoc (232) • United States 2 May 08

Yes, I am like many folks out there who need their coffee first thing in the morning. It's just so relaxing and tasty and it wakes me up. I am sure caffeine doesn't even affect me anymore, so it must be psychological. I just love...
