Coffee Milk is not a fifty-fifty blend. Something you knit like twiggy wiggy, or Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. It’s a Rhode Island thing. Runner-up for the State drink: Del's frozen lemonade. It’s not that it’s delicious— it is: milk, coffee, sugar. Nourish the morning, stay the sweet empty night. Everything else succumbs. No church wedding, nor Mazel Tov you can pass easily over.
