If I was able to have you all over for coffee and chats, I would tell you...
...how much I am LOVING my new french press (see below), I've never had anything that makes coffee at home, but I think the coffee from this tastes amazing. Rich and creamy. Plus, you can make as much or as little as you want. It's been such a nice treat to have coffee at home.
...how thankful I am for all of the sweet comments, emails, and tweets I've received about this post. You all truly make life more wonderful.
...how crazy the difference between "in shape" means when comparing yoga and running. I thought I was in great shape because the yoga has left me pretty toned, but after running for the first time in awhile (because of this), I am so. sore.
...how as much as I love Texas and adore the people we've met here I have been really homesick lately. I think part of it is the fact that I know in Kansas the leaves are changing and the temperature isn't spiking back up to 90 this week. Bah humbug.
...how proud I am of Dave for learning TWO brand new languages. Hebrew and German...makes my head hurt just thinking about it.
If I was able to have you all over for coffee and chats, what would you tell me?
If I was over for coffee...Haha who am I kidding! I would ask for some OJ! I never really got to like coffee :/ This is probably the conversation that would happen.
ReplyDeleteYou: You don't like coffee?
Me: Nope. Oddball here.
You: It's ok! We can still be friends :)
Me: Yay!
Anyways, I read this article somewhere before saying how we need to balance our workouts. That what is a yogi who can't run. Or a hardcore bootcamper who can't touch there toes. So true! It's all about balance and doing a bit of each.

Oh man, I have to learn French and German in the semi-near future. I am also working on French and Greek now. AHHH languages!
ReplyDeleteI love the French Press! Glad you brought it up, think I'll dig mine out.
ReplyDeleteA barista told me once, that the reason coffee is so much better in a French Press is because 90% of the flavor from coffee comes from the oil in the beans and that when you use a regular brewing machine, a lot of the oil gets soaked up without making it into the cup.
A Press allows the oil to stay in the brew.
Interesting.
OOOOh, my mom and dad LOVE french press coffee. I'd tell you that I get homesick of the midwest too. Then I would ask you to teach me some of your photo skills because lately when I take any picture of something in nature I think of you and your gorgeous shots.
ReplyDeleteoh, I need to get a french press!
