Every morning, I wake up, grind my coffee beans, brew my coffee and go to work. Lots of people drink coffee on their way to work. Now, who cares? I do. I don't just like my morning coffee...I LOVE my morning coffee. By 6:45 every work day, I have four cups of brewed coffee in my giant travel tumbler or two in my Starbucks reusable "looks like a paper cup" mug. So...why coffee? Here's why:
- I get to make lotsa noise grinding my own beans and I get to control the size of the grind. Thanks to Chris, I think I have 20 different grind sizes. I've got it set midway between a fine and medium grind and it stays there.
- I get to control how weak or strong I make it. I've got the simple ratio called One-to-One. Not complicated. Some days it's a smaller scoop and on those other days...heaping scoops. Be been accused of mud-like coffee, but hey, if you don't like it, don't drink the coffee I make for me. I make it the way I like it...not for anyone else.
- It smells so good and helps me wake up. The smell of coffee is like a warm hug in the morning. It's like, "Good morning, Cindy! Your day will be just as good, as me". I love the smell of coffee shops, too, but who can afford it everyday? I'd go just for the smell, but I think having it in my own home is just faster.
- I can put it in a reusable Starbucks travel cup that looks like the paper cup and people actually believe I buy Starbucks daily...oh yah, right...like I could afford that. I spent the whole dollar for the reusable cup only because I an a ten cent discount if I actually buy coffee there...which I don't actually do.
- I can add any of those flavored creamers to my coffee and it tastes just like one of those expensive ones from Starbucks but without my wallet screaming
- It makes me all warm and cozy on my ride to work
- Caffeine, caffeine, CAFFEINE!
- I'm awake...or waking up...on my way to work
- It just tastes good
- Finally...BECAUSE I JUST DO!
