Like hugs in cups

Having opinions can turn out to be unsafe for people. I'm talking about choosing a side, actually. When the football world cup comes around, you're pretty much either Brazil or Argentina. God forbid if you aren't a fan of the Bangladesh cricket team, you can choose between India or Pakistan. You're also either a cat worshipper or a dog lover.

And along the same line of thought, I can't decide if I'm a tea person or a coffee person.

One thing is for sure: I am not a morning person. My caffeine intake is therefore a necessity. So when it's time to choose between tea and coffee, I'm at a loss. I love the feeling of warmth that a cup of tea presents and equally enjoy the boost from a hot mug of coffee. I'm sure many of you can relate.

To make matters worse (or better?), both tea and coffee come with an arsenal full of flavours and infusions and what not. Green tea? Healthy. Espresso? Powerful. Earl Grey with a twig of mint? Yessir. Hazelnut chocolate-toffee latte? Take my money.

Oh well, guess I'll just revel in the best of both worlds, located at the North End of the city.
