A Love Letter to Coffee

I have realised recently how inextricably linked coffee and my entire personality are when I was told to avoid it for a week and my friends and colleagues were concerned for my wellbeing.

Whilst I survived the necessary week I cannot say I wasn't counting down the days. An obsession with coffee isn't an original one. I am proud to say I am just like other girls on that front. 

Coffee is my early morning companion, pretty much the only thing that will coax me from my toasty warm bed once my alarm has gone off. Sometimes it magical powers are limited to allowing my eyelids to feel just that little bit lighter as I stare bewildered at my emails. 

Other times it is a vital lifeline allowing me and my closest friends to vent our frustrations and tell ourselves it's fine that we can't afford therapists we have each other! 

And when I get chance it is my people watching potion. I find a corner of a cafe or a window seat and watch the world go by with a frothy coffee for company.
