Most excellent coffee-inspired piece. You capture the wonderful sensory experience of being in a café and the passion for coffee.
She would have given up the black stuff over her dead trembling body. At least caffeine made her feel slightly alive. Fuck chai and dandelion tea. Fuck chamomile and matcha, peppermint or beetroot powder and acai almond latte.
I love me some good chai and other teas, especially matcha because of its aesthetic ritualistic appeal. But coffee is a different beast. Where tea is a sensuous cellular experience, coffee is more like a down and dirty no-holds-barred knee-scraping roll between the crashing waves. Phew!
I do love all the teas I mentioned, I just resent being told I shouldn't drink coffee 😂 I can only have it once a week or so. It sends me into meltdown jitters!! I miss it though...
Only once a week? That's likely better for your health rather than chugging it multiple times a day like someone I know. 😊
