But I didn’t Drink Coffee……

Remembering the 80s it tough. It was so long ago.

Back then Marc drank his coffee at the base, and I just drank Dr. Pepper. By the gallons. Daily.

I was addicted to Dr Pepper. I was a size 4. I was married. Life was good. Well, it was good until I got pregnant with my first baby and totally lost my ability to even smell Dr. Pepper without gagging. My daughter, Erin, the one that caused my Dr Pepper divorce, is now a Dr Pepper addict. THAT was a slap in the face.

The early 80s were still echoing with the looks and sounds of Star Wars…Check this out…

  1. That is so funny.

    The only time I DO remember being addicted to Dr. Pepper is when I was pregnant for my daughter (late ’70s).

    I can barely remember when it wasn’t available to us in the Upper Midwest. When we visited our Kentucky relatives, we would bring some back with us for special treats.

    LOL! Brenda that is funny..I remember visiting relatives in Michigan and having to take it with me because it was unavailable!

  2. [...] Kettle and Cup - What Marye drank before coffee - I for one am shocked! Baking Delights - Marye reveals that she got married in 1980, and after that who knows? I was so surprised by the fact that she got married in 1980 that the rest of the post was a blur. Honestly this woman can’t be that old (look). If I had to guess at the contents of said post, I’d wager baking and the 80s are somehow involved. [...]

  4. [...] of Easter brunch has been a chocolate bunny washed down with either Dr. Pepper, or coffee.  Sort of depends on the era, if you know what I mean.  We have rarely attended a church that had the energy to do a sunrise [...]
