I can't actually imagine life without you. I'm not addicted to you, but the pleasure I get from you, from the ritual of the pour and plunge, or the stove top percolate, or the two hours in a cafe with two of you and a pen and paper, is immense. So I say thank you. Thank you for filling me with a wake-up bitterness and a chocolatey comfort. Thank you for the times when you collaborate with warm, frothed up milk and present yourself as a latte or flat-white and I get to dip and lick you from the back of a spoon. Thank you for accompanying me in my creative pursuits; so often you are my editor, my ideas man, my co-writer.
Big Kiss X
(Sorry about the coffee breath)
