I have been doing my best to wake up before the kids this week. When Zach heads out at dawn, I pull myself out of bed, trying not to disturb Henry who is typically attached to me in some way or another. First things first, I start boiling my water for coffee. What did I find this morning? That we are down to just a few more cups with the Stumptown coffee we brought with us. Gasp!
So tonight I asked Zach if it was possible to order Intelligentsia coffee online. He began his search. There was a long pause... then this was what he read to me:
The aromatics of coffee blossom and violet make way for an incredibly graceful and elegant cup. The body has a light and silky quality, like fresh whipped cream, that beautifully compliments the ever-present note of citron, juniper berry and vanilla. As it cools, the cup blossoms into notes of confectioner's sugar, rosehips, and soft raisin, resonating on a pristine finish with a touch of milk chocolate.
Add to Cart. Please.

Hi, Rachel thanks for your kind comment on my blog (and work). Reading this reminds me, that I didn't got enough sleep last night. Sorry have to hurry towards kitchen - I need a coffee. ;)
It is lovely to wake up before children.I enjoy that moment when everything is waiting for a new day.And i have cup of really good coffee:)
Well, I need to wake up before children...otherwise I'm not the mum I want to be ;-) Without espresso with milk (Latte macchiato or café au lait)in the morning? No way!
Your new coffee - add to cart, please.
Ah, Look at Henry, the sun in his beautiful hair, so at peace. Love the little hand, usually quite busy I suspect!
I used to have tea in the morning, but I have turned to coffee over the last years... not human without it. It'a fast process, boiling water and instant Nescafe. Yes, I know - you better bring your own coffee, Rachel!
Indeed, rising before the kids, enjoying your tea or coffee makes for a peaceful start to the day.
Lilli; I bring my chemex with me everywhere! Even to Europe. :) I can tolerate different coffees but i need my chemex, half of it is the ritual.
Just love it.
I am a tea drinker but would turn to coffee in the presence of you all - if we were all neighbours...
