International Delight French Vanilla liquid nm

how about the coffee creamer one? sm
Where the woman is watering her grass and then sprays the paperboy when he rides by! That's how I feel sometimes before my coffee!
hey, do you take liquid or powder creamer in your coffee?

Coffee just always smells so darn good, doesn't it? I drink 3 cups of coffee... sm

in the morning (used to be 4) w/Nutrasweet, a little regular powdered creamer and a little liquid French Vanilla creamer (yes, I do like it sweet!)  If I'm really sleepy and need the boost, I'll have another cup or two. 


Then I immediately start drinking diet Dr. Pepper, and not the caffeine-free kind.  Love it.  I drink diet Dr. Pepper throughout the day and night, about 6 cans a day (it used to be diet Coke).  I've joked with my friends and family that it might be time for them to hold an intervention for me with the Dr. P. 


I do sometimes worry about the mass quantity of Nutrasweet I consume each day.  Anybody else? 


POTS of coffee? Wow...I have 2-3 cups of half-caff coffee with just milk each day. Any more and I

The great southern coffee... Community Coffee...

People who grew up with it and have moved have it sent to them now or stock up when they visit Louisiana.


will see it when it comes to HBO! Got suckered on Vanilla Sky. Yuk nm

Bono and vanilla ice cream.
He can wish for me and Guiness and we'd be set.   
Ooh, I love vanilla latte from Starbucks...
totally off subject though!
Try the new Chai creamer..it's delish! nm

Good ole Folgers...but with flavored creamer!
nm
Me too, but I use regular creamer and a dash of mocha. NM

Just a splash of skim milk. No sugar, creamer or flavorings.

I think French just might be
my least favorite accent. Despite my French teacher bragging about what excellent speakers the French are, never saying um, just having fast flowing speech, when dictating in English, the ones I've done have had some serious stammering, poor enunciation, extra words, and many unexplained word choice changes, and it's all I can do not to scream and grind my teeth the moment I hear that accent.

I'd love to tell my snotty French teacher that, too.

French!

French for me too.

pleural is a medical term, regarding the lungs....

French Ed. major
with English Ed minor and Music minor. No jobs around here in Northern Indiana, and extended family is here, so once started having kids, kind of just fell into this work. Love it, though, love using the Latin I had years ago.
Bob for French fries!!
LOL
Don't get it......what does French sounding name
nm
also had a French Canadian
very difficult...  now if I ever hear a doctor with a New Zealand accent  I think I will recognize it  - very distinctive - have heard it only in a few movies.
Canadian Dollars- probably French ESL nm

"Faux" is French for false. - nm

The French sounding name in other words
it was not like I was a Jones or Smith, you know, simple sounding every day names and if you have worked as long as I have in this business, I have seen dictators get a chart mixed up with another, not that it happens often. That was the reason for my saying it - he could not have mistaken my dictation for a Ms. Smith or Ms. Jones....
French 1st Language dictators

My take is that you are both correct and mistaken.  People with French as their mother tongue can be both challenging and reliable to transcribe in English. The challenging part is the omission of certain sounds that are normal to the English-attuned ear.  The reliable part is that the differences one hears are usually SO predictable.  I belive that with more info I can help you even with your specific problem.   


I think Spanish and French are the worst, (sm)
and I even took French. But they have an annoying way of dropping out all recordable sound and just doing something with their lips that a recorder can't pick up at the end of some words that is very annoying.

I have enjoyed British, but every newbie should be warned about their "stop" and "full stop" for punctuation, LOL.
Autocorrect turned french!

Out of no where my autocorrect is french!  Anyone know how to turn this off??


maybe she means 'pissoir', it's French, look it up!...nm

Hot dogs and homemade french fries.

Spanish, French do celebrate Christmas in USA
Middle Eastern Arabic people do not celebrate Christmas nor the Jewish people (and Chanukah comes early 12/3 this year so they should be working.  Russian Christmas is in January.  The Hispanic community as well as the French communities here in the USA, as I know it, certainly do celebrate Christmas.  Happy Holidays To All....
I thought the French, Germans, and Russians were hairy.
Would that make them hirsutian?
Hot French bread with real butter, rasberries
with real cream, Belgian sweet dark chocolate and Fritos.  It would have to be my last supper, because it would probably kill me!   Yummmmmmm.
Not much different than eating French toast with a side of bacon and scrambled eggs w/cheese. nm

French, especially the surgeons. Easiest: Middle Eastern, Korean, Chinese, Indian. nm

latte, do you like lattes? I like vanilla lattes.

Hey, that is me too. Nothing like a cig with your coffee :-)
 
coffee
Usually 3 to 4 large cups in the morning and 2 to 3 cups of tea in the afternoon.  I couldn't live with my morning coffee ! 
Look for, not look like for...coffee!!!

best coffee

Whole bean and grind it yourself.  It blows away the stuff in the can already ground.


I buy what is on sale, because it all tastes good when you grind it yourself.  But I prefer 8 O'Clock Coffee, which may or may not be available in your area. 


Whole bean all the way. 


One CUP of coffee? Why would you deny yourself that? nm
xx
Three Tylenol and coffee (sm)
 of course, a massage never hurts!! Feel better!
You are right ! I need coffee. tanks

Yes along with drinking my pot of coffee! nm

Coffee and a big cup of ice water so far...nm

Are they coffee drinkers?
I love coffee and would love to receive some Starbucks flavored coffee beans and cappuccino (sp) mixes, some Mrs. Fields cookies, muffins, a couple of pretty coffe mugs, a good book, throw them in a basket and voila!
Oh my goodness! That's a lot of coffee.
I recently cut my coffee intake from three large cups a day to, most days, none. For me, the big reason is that I sugar/cream it to death, and thought I might lose a few pounds. I also do not think that my brain works right when I've had that much coffee.

Trying to move to green tea sweetened with honey, and not three large cups. (LOL)
I think I actually keep my weight down with coffee..
I use the artificial sweeteners and fat free flavored creamers or half and half. And caffeine can suppress the appetite which works for me ;)
Okay..... what KIND of coffee??
I think Duncan Donuts is the BEST!!  :o)   Although I buy their ground coffee and brew it myself...... Much cheaper that way. 
About drinking coffee....

I gave up caffeine a few years ago.  I used to drink 8 to 10 LARGE mugs of coffee a day but gave it up. 


The bad part about being caffeine free was waking up in the morning and thinking "This is as good as I am going to feel all day long."


But....I got used to it. 


lol need coffee.....like not kike
cannot spell today. Good thing I am not working today.
Got fresh coffee, come here or sm
play games on yahoo! games.
