Though I am rather more fond of tea, I thoroughly enjoy the odd cup of coffee, and to be honest it always rather frustrates me to see the stuff lauded solely for its caffiene content. Now, I know that attitude is by no means universal, and that even so it really shouldn't bother me, but I suspect that if you did a quick Family Fortunes-esque survey on "A Reason For Drinking Coffee", the answers "To wake you up in the morning" and "To keep you up at night" would come out somewhat higher than "Because it really tastes rather lovely and goes beautifully with a good chunk of parkin", and that seems a bit of a shame. Possibly I should blame largely rubbish-tasting instant coffee. Or possibly, and this is more likely, I should not concern myself with it.
I'm not really sure where I'm going with this, and frankly I'm rather shaky on the value of where I've been already, so I'm going to stop now. Though I should really plug CaféDirect's fancy Peruvian stuff, because it's really really tasty, fairly traded, and has a very nice picture of Machu Picchu on the front. Though I should mention that their instructions for making coffee require you to put your feet up, so if that's a problem you might want to look elsewhere. We wouldn't want you to strain yourself.
