Coffee and Camping
The campfire sparks and crackles tossing soft red specks dancing into the air. I sit and watch the movement of the flames as I sip my coffee. Relaxing and quiet, I draw in that early morning energy and look forward to the day ahead. If we were having coffee, I would share that we got… Continue reading Coffee and Camping

Coffee and mindfulness?
My morning coffee earlier this week made me question coffee and mindfulness and here is why. I strolled into the kitchen to make my first cup of coffee for the day. I stood with my left hand on the top of the metal Keurig spinner slowly rotating it while I scanned the coffee flavours. I… Continue reading Coffee and mindfulness?

Coffee and business
It’s just a simple black coffee warming my coffee cup this morning. What are you drinking? If we were having coffee, I would start by sharing pictures of my finished China cabinet. Between the weather and the air quality—this week has been a week of thunderstorms—this project took me longer then expected. I’m happy with… Continue reading Coffee and business

What? Churros flavoured coffee?
Bean Around the World coffee—Spain—Churros flavoured coffee fills my mug today. I must start with a confession. I’ve never tried a Churro; the opportunity just hasn’t come up.

Pillows of steam
The pillows of steam rising from my mug are a flavour mix of sweet and bitter. I would class this as a mild sip of coffee that doesn’t suggest chocolate truffle. It isn’t too bitter. It’s a simple roasted coffee. I’m drink Bean Around the World, Belgium chocolate truffle flavoured coffee. If we were having… Continue reading Pillows of steam

Creative Expression
Writing when the words come little by little, only touching your creative mind without reaching fruition, can be like grasping at fairy dust. Thoughts and words—elusive grains of sand caught in the wind. Some are minuscule and golden with that soft flour-like feel as they slip between your fingers, inviting magic but not achieving it.… Continue reading Creative Expression

Confetti Cupcake Tea
Have we talked about confetti cupcake tea? It’s from David’s Tea. In the mug it doesn’t appear to gave a notable colour, but it has an evident sheen of white film coating its surface. Yuck! That doesn’t sound good, right? It has a soft sweet smell with an almost apple odour. The taste is mild… Continue reading Confetti Cupcake Tea
