Coffee

Mike’s

Good coffee can make my day. Bad coffee (like bad wine) can leave me confused
and depressed.
I love tea. Tea is dependable. If I want to be refreshed, especially on a hot,
sweaty day, tea is the drink. Iced tea? Love it. Herbal teas? Quite like some
of them. But there’s something about coffee. It’s edgy, it’s unpredictable,
it’s risky. You can have a great cup of coffee one day, get another the next
day from the same place, made by the same person, and it’s crap. So, coffee
is risky. But it’s a risk I’ll continue to take, because the enigma of freshly
made, as yet untasted cup of coffee, sums up the mystery of life.
