Me and Coffee...A Story of Desire

I've made it a point to not have a daily cup of coffee.  There are some people in my life who are unable to function until they have that first cup in the morning and I never wanted to be like that.  Jeremy doesn't like coffee and in the past I have only purchased it as an occasional treat.  We don't have a coffee pot so I never had the option to make coffee at home before and I didn't feel the need to anyway.  We also don't have a lot of counter space so it seemed silly to have something that would just be in the way.

Well, guess what folks...having two children under two can change a person.  It can make a person really desire caffeine.  Just in case you were wondering, by "a person," I totally mean me.  As a birthday gift to myself, I purchased a one cup french press.  Now I can have coffee when I feel the need and not spend $3-$4 on a latte three times a week which is what I have been doing lately.  It is also really small so it won't take up counter space.

I just got the french press and a coffee grinder and I can't wait to try them out!  I really have no idea how to use these two items, but I'm excited to get the caffeine into my body.
