For Christmas this year I received something that I had been wanting for a long time…An espresso maker. I was thrilled! Since Christmas I have invested a little money into my own personal coffee shop, which includes coffee (of course) espresso (regular and decaf), flavors and items to make white chocolate and regular chocolate mocha’s. Also I have a new steamer mug as well as a thermometer so I know I have the right temperature. I moved some things around in my kitchen in order to give my new espresso machine a place of honor in my kitchen. Then I realized that I had so much stuff, I was going to need more cupboard space to house my new purchases. So I then re-organized a lot of my kitchen and cleared out a lot of stuff that we moved with, but never really used. All in order to have an entire cupboard filled with coffee making supplies. I am becoming a bit obsessed. I have a “special coffee” every morning and it is such a treat! I may end up getting fat from my new habit..but it’s almost too good to care! Here is a picture of my new coffee maker and miniature home coffee shop. Coffee anyone?
girlfriend, I’m coming over
you are set up! Have you tried a white-chocolate-maple-mocha? Totally yummy.
I love my espresso maker, too!
I’m going to make myself a special little drink today too…perhaps today I might make myself several…
ciao…
I mostly did this post for you, Allison..I knew you’d be the first to comment. =)
Mmmmmmm. My tummy’s grumbling and I usualy don’t even like ‘girly’ coffee!
I’m totally jealous. Can I order a white-chocolate peppermint mocha?
I’ve been debating making the big purchase too…hmmm…you may have just inspired me.
