I am a self-confessed coffee addict! I have to… no wait… I NEED to have that steaming cup of coffee as soon as I crawl out of bed in the morning. Now, usually, I only manage to take 2 sips before one of the kids come to tug at my pants or tap against my leg with some or other demand:) And I know that this is probably the way most coffee-loving moms have to get their fix… 2 sips at a time.
I generally don’t function well without my caffeine. I won’t share how many cups I actually consume on a daily basis (I cringe at the thought). However, there are days when the only way to get a delightful sip of that dark brown liquid gold, is in the following ways…. #coffeeaddict
The One Sip Nappy Flip
Being able to take a sip whilst doing the nappy change is an art. You definitely have to be quick.
The Bathroom Break … Down The Door
This image is self-explanatory. When is ANY mother allowed to be in the bathroom alone? Never… It’s against all toddler rules ;)
The School Pick Me Up
By this time of the day, with the morning gone and the long road until bedtime looming large, coffee is a necessity. A travel mug is not a luxury – it’s a survival tool!
The Sweep Me Off My Feet Cuppa
For all those joyous days when you need a little kick to get you through the household chores, work and children! One sweep, one sip, one wipe, one sip, one load, one sip, one dish, one sip… good rhythm, right?
And… Lastly… The Cold Brewed Kind
We all know the one… It sits there longingly waiting for you to take a sip. The poor thing gets reheated over and over again… Only to be poured down the drain for a fresh cup! (Which very often suffers the same fate.)
I’m definitely no Picasso!!
So there you have it. From one coffee-addicted-mama to the next. Any interesting ways you get to drink your coffee?
I actually put a new travel mug on my Christmas list. It’s usually tea but I’m with you all the way!
It’s definitely a necessity! ?
My personal favourite is the 5pm coffee…on the go right now. The pick me up required after the cook-feed-clean marathon and prior to the bath-read-bed marathon :-)

Oh most definitely! Those dark hours seem to loom!!!
I LOVE your little drawings! :)
I’m a tea drinker but can totally identify – the only time I ever get to finish a hot cup of tea is when I’m at work… one of the best reasons to go back to work after having kids! ;)
Thanks for joining #chucklemums
Oh thank you! That is so kind coming from you (awesome drawings on your Blog ❤).. I know what you mean.. I think that’s the one thing I really miss about working. ? ..
I’m a tea lady myself (not a tea lady as in works serving tea, you understand ;) ) and I stand by all of these! #chucklemums
Haha!! I was about to ask what colour your apron is ??
Hmm…I think I like tea more than coffee. Although there are times when I really crave a coffee, I always find myself getting tea instead. Have you tried milk teas? I can never get enough of them.
