COFFEE 2024-2
The Donut Stop, French Cruller-flavoured coffee, has a faint nutty fragrance. There are no sugar or vanilla odours. It doesn’t scream donut from the scent. However, the taste is vanilla and burnt nut. It’s a decent cup of coffee. If we were having coffee, I would share with you that the rest of my 2024… Continue reading COFFEE 2024-2

I miss coffee dates at the coffee shop
The café isn’t frightfully busy. It is just busy enough that there is a soft hum of conversation around me that mixes with the faint sound of music. The smell of coffee is the dominant note in the air and it is welcoming. There is no sense of urgency in this environment: sit, sip, and… Continue reading I miss coffee dates at the coffee shop

Trick-or-Treat and coffee please
There is a complex coffee roasted peanut smell rising from my coffee mug. My coffee this morning is Sundae’s peanut butter coffee.
