Aubrey rubbed her sandy eyes as she waited for the chocolatey goodness to fill her morning mug. She inhaled the sweet, roasted aroma, perking up her senses. Aubrey added her usual fixings to her cup: a splash of hazelnut creamer and two scoops of sugar. When all was said and done, she raised the mug to her lips. The warmth of the now carmel-colored drink traveled across her tastebuds and down her esophagus, settling in her otherwise empty stomach. The lovely bite dilated her pupils. Each morning Aubrey was reminded of her love for coffee, and all its bitter goodness.
