Coffee Is Gateway to Addiction


Our early morning behavior is second nature to many of us. Get up, get a cup of coffee or four, and get on with the day. Deviate from the routine and our bodies find subtle and not-so-subtle ways to remind us.It only took four days to figure out my problem.Each morning a few weeks back, I took the fancy package of coffee out of the freezer and made a full pot. Each afternoon that week, I nursed a migraine and tried to stay awake. The house was a mess by the fourth day. I had no energy to clean it. And I can't say I was very pleasant, either. On Friday, my husband asked where I put the coffee because all he could find was decaf. One cup of Starbucks later, all was right with my world once again.
