'Life is far too short to drink bad coffee'

This photo was snapped of me during the recent Cascades Youth Expedition (its amazing what turns up on facebook!). Despite being a bit disorganised in most aspects of my day-to-day life. I remain a strong believer that, ‘life is far too short to drink bad coffee’.

This photo was taken right in the middle of the Mt Rainier National Park on the Wonderland Trail. For some reason the group couldn’t believe that I would transport and carry a portable coffee grinder into the US wilderness? But as the beans were specially roasted for me by my pal Michael at Artisan Roast in Edinburgh there was no way I could compromise with instant or even ground coffee!

Happy days!

Doesn't surprise me as my husband would do the same thing ;o)

Then he is a very good man! Na you are a very lucky lady! When are you guys back to school in the sunny midlands? OB

Oh yes. It's that complex equation that balances the hassle and extra weight with the grumpiness of poor caffeine intake. I'm with you on this one...

So you're not a supporter of the "super lightweight" expedition packs then :-)

Fully with you on taking that little comfort with you anyway, I think it's illegal to drink bad coffee that close to Seattle!

Cheers,

Mark.

I'm back to school week on Wednesday; kids are back on the Friday as they have two teacher days. In fact, they had two at the end of the summer term too so they've had an extended holiday! Lucky monkeys ;o)
Hubbie will probably be pleased - won't have to share his mid-morning coffee with me when I go back to school!
