I survived day 1 of only tea-derived caffeine, successfully powering through the day on nothing but a single cup of black tea and pure vibes.
After another night spent feeling under the weather, I met Day 2 rolling out of my slumber in search of something indulgent to accompany my reading of The Conspiracy Against the Human Race. I settled on this Oatmeal Raisin Cookie blend for a much-needed boost, and oh. My. God.
Despite its delicate, amber coloring, the aroma coming out of my cup is so insanely raisiny it’s like diving into the congealed gummy center of the most fabulously flavorful raisin you have ever tasted and bathing in its cinnamon sweetness. It’s a smooth, syrupy cup reminiscent of curling up in a blanket watching sunny autumn leaves and going back to sleep. I feel like the pat of butter on a warm stack of fluffy pancakes, slowly melting away.

Oh my, that sounds scrumptious. Bet it would make a great latte, too. Pure decadence.
That book sounds interesting — are you enjoying it? Good job on only tea-derived caffeine. :)
@Courtney If you are feeling hopeless, disillusioned with life, and desperate for a philosophical take on an existence that feels nightmarish, morally conflicting, and involuntary, I would say this read is the perfect choice for a little comfort in the knowledge that you are not alone and to see someone go to lengths to try to rationalize or articulate your experience. In that regard, I’m greatly enjoying the book and am also continuously impressed by the vocabulary and background holding it together.
That said, if you are a generally satisfied person, I would suggest leaving Thomas Ligotti on the shelf for some other day. LOL
Oh, mercy! You are actually making me want to bake cookies from scratch, and that’s sayin’ something! Tin Roof sounds like it could easily be my happy place.
