Oh How I Love Coffee

I don't think there is anything about coffee that I don't totally love.  There is the smell. Deep roasted fragrance floating around any atmosphere makes me feel relaxed. Weird I know as coffee is supposed to amp a person up, yet when I smell coffee it makes me think of friends and the morning.



Maybe it is because I love mornings that the smell of coffee reminds me of mornings.

Then there is all of the stuff that goes with coffee. The ritual of preparing coffee. The grinding of the beans, even before that the selection of which type of coffee to indulge in.  My personal preference is a dark roast by Starbucks.

I'm rather a coffee snob, though I don't use a burr grinder (yet) I still have my blade grinder that I meticulously count out 15 seconds with so as to not burn my coffee beans.  The blade grinder produces an adequate cup of coffee for my morning pleasure.

I love all kinds of coffee though. Espresso, Frapachinnos, drip coffee, french press coffee, coffee with stuff in it coffee black.  Lately I've been experimenting with milk, honey and cinnamon in a dark roast drip coffee. So good. Sweet yet you aren't left with that "sugar" guilt and you haven't had to resort to those "deadly" sweeteners.

Try it out the next time you have a hankering for a cup of sweet coffee.
