If you saw Deb’s blog post last week, you already know that she and Ken dropped by to see me and Joe on their grand adventure! And oh, what a sweet visit that was. Only problem…it was too quick!

We had breakfast with them at their campsite one morning, then they spent the day with us on Mother’s Day.

Deb and I are both major coffee lovers!

So when she mentioned she was going to make French Press coffee for us that morning, but would have to make a couple of “pots” since hers was smaller, I scrounged around until I found mine and brought it with us. But it had been so long since I’d used it, I didn’t remember how. So…

Deb gave me a step-by-step tutorial. That is, IF you can hear it over all the cackling and good-natured sarcasm!

And here’s after waiting four minutes for all that yumminess to brew. Oh, the aroma.

Are YOU a coffee lover too? If yes, how do you take yours? Black? With cream? Sweetened? Unsweetened? With a flavored creamer? Do you like all the flavored coffees too?

Me? I love ‘regular’ coffee (unflavored) with either heavy cream or half and half, and sweetened with Stevia. And I like it HOT, baby. Around 195 degrees (which is about 40 seconds in the microwave after the cold cream is added).

I usually awaken between 4:30 and 5:00 AM, and grabbing my coffee and Bible is how I start each day. It’s a treasured time for so many reasons. And even now (it’s Monday evening as I’m typing this), I’m already looking forward to that first (and second) cup of morning coffee. Oh that first sip is heavenly.

Have you ever made French Press coffee? Did you enjoy it? How do you drink your coffee? And if coffee isn’t your “cup of tea,” tell me what is!

Happy Tuesday all!
