Iced Coffee

Lots going on here: Moody Blues, St. Christopher, iPhone, or a summer drink? Where do I go? On warm summer afternoons on Stevens Avenue, I often found Mom in her favorite reading chair in the den with a ice-beaded glass of her favorite summer beverage: iced coffee. Many times, I do recall, she asked if I wanted a sip. It always looked so icy and refreshing. I never turned down the opportunity, but my facial reaction(some sort of visual contortion) and the comment, "ewwww" was always the same. "Mom, how can you drink that crap?" I'd say. My!!! How things have changed!

  1. Haha! Apparently developing a taste for iced coffee is some sort of rite of passage. I love it now too. But...what was the summer drink du jour in your photo?

  3. Yep, I've grown to love iced coffee too. It's the iPhone I'll probably never get used to.

  4. Go for Moody Blues, please! :))
    I need to confess that I don't like mobile phone, or something like that, in fact I don't have it, and I would not know how to deal maybe only turn on the mobile LOL
    Hugs and a beautiful week
