caffeine fix

The death of our espresso machine 2 weeks ago was a truly sad event. Sam then had to make the decision of what kind he would purchase to replace it since this is a necessity in our house. The coffee maker is only used for guests anymore like the true Seattleites we are we must have espresso, well lattes really, not coffee.

This is serious business at our house - anyone in doubt should spend an early morning with Sam and then you would understand the extreme importance of his espresso machine.

The first purchase Sam made for our boat after we purchased it before it even arrived was an espresso machine. He chose a Nespresso one since he figured the pods would be easier on the boat. It was a great choice and we start the day and often end the day while on the boat with a latte, or two.

Now he had to decide if he would get the same brand we had on the boat or the one we had before. After a stop to look at the option he opted for a Nespresso one. Of course we had to get the upgraded version so now Sam will definitely be using it every morning to pay for it. Of course with our caffeine intake it won't take very long. And best of all when anyone visits they can ask for a latte - Sam is happy to show off his new toy.

As for the pumpkin lattes those are still a work in progress. Hey I got my latte this morning while blow drying my hair - I can wait on the pumpkin latte for a bit. Mornings are a much more pleasant experience around here now so those holding off visiting us can now show up knowing Sam will have his caffeine fix.
