Coffee, Coffee, I Love Coffee!

Before I got married, I had never drank a cup of coffee.

On our honeymoon, my husband made me a cup because he wanted me to go hiking, and I needed a little bit more energy.

I still didn't become a "coffee-drinker" until after our second son was born, about 4 or 5 years later.  I came to enjoy the flavor of coffee.  When I became pregnant with our third son, I gave it up for the health of my baby.  But after he was weaned, I began enjoying my cup of coffee again.

Although I now love the flavor of coffee, I can't drink it black.  I have to have milk or cream in it.  And even though we love an occasional treat from the coffee shop, my husband and I prefer to make our coffee at home.

But since we don't like our coffee to sit around before we drink it, we make it in smaller amounts for immediate enjoyment.  For single serve treats, it's hard to beat the Nespresso Essenza C100.  It has the taste and ease dreams are made of....
