bless them for being such fine upstanding examples.
a.m. chai latte and then…

in the absence of rich delicious espresso, i remember the delights of chai – duh!
why foam never come out this good for coffee?
what-ho! special delivery at 3:30 pm it is the new coffee!
oh baby! baby's wrecker's roast
i was unimpressed with the smell of the beans, but the crema came out lovely (although machine was on all day so that may have helped) and the espresso on it’s own was yummy and nutty? fruity? tobaccoy? different tasting is the best i can determine. the addition of lousy foamed milk (kinda looks ok here thanks to my unskillful photo) in the graydon made it quite a tasty treat.
the preceding paragraph a taste of what i had originally intended for this site; not merely visuals of coffee, but actual notes on what i do and try in an effort to make a better cup of coffee. my best laid plans often require more of me than i am willing to give.
nope i just can’t do it

some days i should just stay in bed-when i’m sick, have pms, it’s raining, whatever. of course i’d only work around ten days a month, but boy would i be happy to be here then!
this sort of sad foam is to be expected on such days. but maybe you can’t see how sad the foam is in this picture since i no longer use the superduper deluxe camera but standard issue iphone camera. sigh.
i also broke two of my favorite shot glasses this morning.

does that not look like the surface of the moon? bad sign for foam, but beautiful for the philosopher romantic.

saturdays at work – it’s actually not so bad. new bag of beans – liquid amber espresso – doesn’t that just sound marvelous? and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
