Sniff Sniff Do you smell that? It is a sugary smell with vanilla notes and the distinct odour of melting chocolate. Yum, yum, yum! Would you rather the smell of cookies baking or coffee brewing? If we were having coffee I would tell you that I have been very selective lately with the sugary thing… Continue reading Weekend Coffee Share in March

Weekend Coffee Share
Would you rather be the coffee spoon of the coffee mug? The metal of the spoon takes on the temperature of the heat for those few brief seconds that it makes contact. I think I would rather be the mug, a ceramic one. I like the responsibility of holding that hot liquid in a familiar… Continue reading Weekend Coffee Share
Would you rather coffee or…
Would you rather cannonball into a cup of coffee or dive into a mug of hot chocolate? Before you answer you should know that the coffee is a rich brown liquid with a strong bitter scent that rises with the breaking of each boiling bubble.

There has been a few mornings lately where up before the rest of my house. There is something to be said for those quiet mornings where I am nestled in the soft glow of a table lamp.

Let’s Take a Coffee Break
There were crystals in the air when I stepped outside this morning. As I braced against the cold I cast my eyes to the sky.

Beber, Leer y Visitar – Drink, Read and Visit The instant coffee grinds that I spooned into my cup are a fine powder substance instead of the more pebble like grinds that I am use to. The hot water sinks down into them and slowly start to produce a soft toffee like colour. When I… Continue reading Beber, Leer y Visitar – Weekend Coffee Share week 1, 2020
