This week’s theme for BookishScene: Project 52 is „Tea vs. Coffee“ which is the perfect topic for me because I neither like tea nor coffee ? I’m not really into hot beverages unless it’s really really cold outside but then it’s always hot chocolate or cappuccino for me.
Since I don’t like drinking tea or coffee I had to get a little creative for this week’s picture, so I stole a teabag at work and if you spot any bubbles in the cup of coffee then it’s probably because my coffee is actually Coke ?
I tried to find some books that would match the „Tea vs. Coffee“ theme but I couldn’t think of any of my books where either one or the other would play a major role, so I rather turned my pic into a little battle of the tea nation England and the coffee nation Italy and picked Robert Galbraith’s „The Cuckoo’s Calling“ which is not only an amazing crime novel but is also set in London. For the coffee side I chose Dan Brown’s „Inferno“ which is mostly set in the city of Florence.

No tea or coffee?? I love coffee haha. Especially when I’m trying to be productive, for some reason it just puts me in a productive mood. I don’t have more than one in a day though, and some days I don’t have any. I just like the way it tastes, but i do have to add a bunch of cream and sugar. So I guess I don’t like the way true coffee tastes ahah. I also love Coke, so I love that you used that for your picture. It’s so bad for you though, I’ve been trying to quit for years now. I’m down to just a few cokes a week now…
No, I don’t really like the taste of coffee, at least when it’s quite strong. It’s okay if it’s just cappuccino or iced coffee but I really don’t need it for breakfast and the like^^ And for me tea usually just tastes like water, so that’s no real option for me, too 😀
I’m not really addicted to coke but sometimes it’s just nice to drink something else than water, usually it’s only 1-2 bottles per week for me. I don’t drink any alcohol so that’s my kind of guilty pleasure 😀
I’m glad I’m not the only one who doesn’t drink coffee, haha. I’m even more boring (weird?) than you are, though, because I don’t drink pop, either. 😛 But I could definitely go for some hot chocolate!
Haha, what do you drink then, just water? 😀
Okay, so let’s agree to have some hot chocolate when we meet in our imaginary bar! 😉
Yep. Sometimes I go wild and drink it warm or sparkling. xD
Hahaha, deal! 🙂
