Cafe World Baby. Yes, Cafe World. Wait! What do you mean you have no idea what Cafe World is? Everyone knows what Cafe World is right?
Right? No. Are you sure? You are!?
UGH. Another addiction of mine raises its ugly head.
Well for those of you not in the know, Cafe World is a game on Facebook (FB). Oh wait, my Super Chunk Fruit Salad is done. Let me get it off my stove and I will be right back.
Ok I am back. Now where was I? Oh yeah I was trying to convince you guys I do not have an addiction to Cafe World. Well I guess I blew that out of the water, and now I only have 13 minutes left before my next round of salads are done.
Cafe World is mindless, dumb, but yet so much fun. I was first introduced to it by my husband about 1 month ago and now I can’t stop. Since I work from home I leave my cafe up in the background while I work away and cook mouthwatering dishes like, French Onion Soup, Kung Pao Stir Fry, Voodoo Chicken Salad and even Strawberry Cheesecake. The catch is that each dish has a cost and a time to cook so you have to plan out your day around when you can get your dishes prepared and served. If you do not serve them in a timely manner after they are done, then they spoil and then you have lost all that money, time and have a nasty kitchen. You think I am kidding about planning your day right? Well I guess that is another sign of a Cafe addict. Let’s review them shall we.
You might be a Cafe Addict if:
You call/text your friends to notify them that their dishes are done and they need to serve them before they spoil or your receive calls/texts from friends notifying you of your dishes.
You wake in the middle of the night in fear that you are out of food in your cafe and your rating will plummet.
You actually get out of bed to go and check your cafe in the middle of the night.
You shamelessly beg your friends on FB to send you free dishes so you don’t run out of food.
You fear others will not like the set up/decorations of your cafe so you ask for decorating ideas.
Man–when you read all that, I really sound pitiful. Well the first sign of treating an addiction is admitting you have a problem so here we go.
I AM A CAFE WORLD ADDICT AND I DON’T WANNA STOP. HA! So there! Yeah I really told you guys huh? If you are on FB check it out and give it a whirl. It is fun, mindless and–Oh there is the dingy telling me my Super Chunk Salads are ready. Gotta go.

It’s really funny that I should happen to find this at this moment, while up way later than I had anticipated and waiting for my caramel apples to finish so I can go to bed.

Be careful Paula—Just before I fell asleep last night I remembered I forgot to serve my dishes. I am certified Pitiful

I can’t wait to have some 50,000 so that I can redecorate my café! ^^ On Thursday I’ll have to serve some Brain Bakes, I am soooo anxious, ahahahahah. At least we get medals for spoiled dishes, in less than a week playing I already have a bronze medal for that. :X

I play like a madman, but my wife takes it to a new level. She keeps a log of how many points are needed to level up and close estimates of what’s needed to get there and how long it takes. And if you don’t play daily, she erases you as a friend. Only serious Worlders with her!

Oh Larry that is hilarious! I am still addicted. Come one come all to the addiction.
Paula–how did those brain bakes go?

That is really funny. I just recently had a baby and while I was in the hospital I told my husband …”oh no, my potroast is gonna spoil”

Eheh My vey first addiction at FB was FarmVille. I joined other games in the meanwhile but then… I got so tired of it I dropped FB for good.. or so I thought! Now I’m back and I’m glued to Cafe Life, Paradise Life and RavenWood Fair xD My husband tried to put me on other games to help him out by sending gifts but seriously.. Those 3 games already take a LOT of my time as it is xD
