The memory of the rich roasted scent lingers in my nasal cavity, and the warmth from my… Continue reading If we were having coffee on this beautiful August morning…

On a river of coffee…
The mornings still have a chill in them, and it is just enough of a chill that I can see a steam rising off the pool of coffee in my mug. Perhaps it is because I am so tired that the steam transforms in my mind’s eye to a mist rising off of a lake… Continue reading On a river of coffee…

It seems in the aftermath of April’s A to Z challenge that my pen to paper and fingers to keyboard process is exhausted. April has been a busy… Continue reading Coffee in the wake of A to Z

If we were having our first holiday coffee…
It’s that time of year to start getting out holiday decorations, and that’s been a big part of this week. That said, my coffee mug today is a holiday one.
