My Coffee Confession.
We've all got one, what's yours?
I’m three coffees a day.
None after 12. Lessons learnt from an espresso frenzy.
I savour the mornings and what it affords me.
My go-to coffee shop treat is a Large Hazelnut Latte with an extra shot. Or the usual as the staff call it.
Calories, caffeine, and cream packed into a turbo-charged pick-me-up.
At home, I keep it simple.
A cafetiere, pour-over, an aero press, like I said I keep it simple.
The best coffees at home are on my own, dark and silent. No kids.
Perched at the kitchen table.
Savoured moments before the day takes over. The noise erupts, and chaos ensues. Four kids and a dog.
I'm not religious but please don't take this away from me. I’ll go into some kind of confusion, blurred thinking and hazy thoughts. Rash decisions and bad choices.
Just give me simple coffee and the world will be ok.
