I like the smell of coffee, but I don't care for black coffee. I do like to drink a cappuccino. Or a mochaccino. There used to be a coffee shop across the street from where I lived - they had all these different coffee drinks - ones that tasted like a Snickers bar. My favorite was a Funky Monkey - chocolate, banana, and peanut flavorings.
Hi JamieT, Sounds like a great coffee shop. Mochaccino and cappuccino are my favorite coffees. Love Pumpkin Spiced Latte in the fall. Right now, I've tried a new one, Mexican Spiced Chocolate, has a bite to it. I believe it has chocolate w/chilli pepper in it. Great for morning and daytime, but not evening. Two nights ago, it kept me up all night. Strong stuff. :)) That "Funky Monkey w/ chocolate, banana and peanut flavorings sounds really good. :) Have a great weekend. :)

It was a great coffee shop. The Funky Monkey was great and I have found another coffee shop that had all the flavorings.
Have a great weekend too!

Have never heard of a mochaccino or a funky monkey either but the funky monkey sounds good. Don't know whats in the other you mentioned. Maybe I could try and look it up to see how they are made. Maybe there is a homemade version.

A mochaccino is chocolate flavored. The funky monkey is a cappuccino with those flavors. They also had coffee drinks like, Almond Joy (chocolate, coconut, and almond) cappuccino, Snickers (chocolate, caramel, and peanut), and many others. I think they just experimented with different flavors.

We really don't have good coffee shops around here, Orlando area yes, but not in Central West Gulf coast...my area. I have to make my coffee flavors from scratch or order flavored coffee on-line.
We had a terrible day, Tues. Terrible storms, lightning, thunder, torrential rains for 7 hours. Flooding in the area and a car down the street got hit by lightning. :( Needless to say, my computer was not on at all. :( Hope you are having better weather and all is well with you. Have a good day.

We've (Kansas City area) have been having nightly storms, but it's nothing like Texas and Oklahoma.
Stay safe!

Anchorage, Alaska - by a very circuitous route, too! Been up here since August, 1983. It's truly home now. When we go Outside (our term for the Lower 48), we can take it about 3 days (unless we're vacationing in Mexico or Hawaii) before the traffic and all the people get to us.
YUMMY! I love coffee. Today my husband and I have been married for 45 years!! We are so very blessed and still love each other.....more now than ever!!
Happy Anniversary. In 3 weeks it will be 38 for me.

Happy anniversary! My Dad and Mom just had their anniversary on May 15th. They have been married 61 years but they knew each other years before since teenagers, but didn't get married till after my Dad got back from the Korean war as a Sgt in the marines.
Have a great weekend too!
