Coffee Break

ahhhhh
It's time for your break. Take it.

It may be almost 4:30 p.m. here, and those in my time zone may already be packing up their desks and organizing everything so it's all neat and the stapler is at a right angle to the tape dispenser ... and those who don't work desk jobs may already be starting to position themselves for the long slide down the dinosaur's back (yeah, Fred Flintstone, I'm talkin' to you) ... but since my readership isn't just limited to the East Coast, or even this country (yes, that's right, it's INTERNATIONAL! the word is out!), there's definitely someone out there who needs a break right about now.

So take it.

The coffee on this site is fine. I get the good stuff. I know you say that Folger's is good enough, but I went ahead and spent a little more ... because you're worth it.

Thanks for reading, everyone. Enjoy.

But be careful not to fill your cup up to the rim lest you spill it all over the hideous office carpet (or the dinosaur's back).

Refill, please.
This time, a little lighter with the arsenic, thanks. (Don't think for a second I didn't notice that skull & bones, Missy.)

My apologies, Miss Lawrence. Shan't happen again.

And I see I typoed my last comment. Where's "somwhere?"

Grr.

Wait wait wait wait wait. Wait.

You were downtown, and at a Japanese teahouse, and didn't invite me?

What's that, Scott? You didn't know me then? Still no excuse!

I wish I could remember the name of the Japanese teahouse we were at a few months back. Downtown, somwhere, on the lower East Side. Amazing coffee -- so good we bought their home-blend of "Good Strong Coffee" and loved it.

Nothing like a good cup of java. That reminds me -- I need to go put some Kona on to brew . . .

Absolutely, Max. It's either caffeinated or nothing at all. Decaf is a very bad joke. (And it looks like Miles [adorable!] is in on it. Woof!)

Hey Jodi!

Yet another blogging coincidence between our two blogs!

Thanks for your nice comments about Miles in my article about the new coffee shop in my neighbourhood.

Maybe one day, if I make it to NYC, you can show me where the good (caffeineated) stuff is!?

LA: Enjoy!

Gimme.

I don't like folgers...my parents use it and it has a waxy aftertaste...maybe its just the fact that they keep on using coffee makers that are at least 20 years old that they bought from the thrift store.
