I have a lovely old La Pavoni that I picked up at a yard sale (for $75!), but it needs some work -- right now, it doesn't generate enough water pressure to make really strong, hot espresso, and it's so heavy that I haven't taken it in for a tune-up. It's mostly furniture right now. But gorgeous.
So it's fresh-ground Melitta-cone coffee for me in the mornings.
Death to a Buffista means never having to say you're unemployed.
No wait, that's death to a Buffy cast member.
That is gorgeous, Jessica! I'm considering getting one of those one-cup pod machines. They make coffee so
fast.
I'm all about instant gratification.
That's what I love about my espresso machine, when it's working. It takes like a minute from stumbling into the kitchen to having espresso in hand. But it's stopped pressurizing properly, or something, and now I am coffee-less.
Speed is a HUGE part of my Melitta cone love. (And why I finally replaced my stovetop kettle with an electric one -- hot water NOW!)
Me, I am hungover. Ish. My head does not hurt, but I am simultaneously starving, and having my tummy go "you want to put FOOD in here? After all that ALCOHOL? Are you NUTS?". Sigh.
And my boss just called going "You're coming in today, right? Right? Where are you?". BOO.
That is a gorgeous machine, Jess.
I am trying to decide if I want to scavange for breakfast type food here, or go up and get food that someone else makes and brings me. I wish the latter didn't involve getting dressed and other people.

Have it delivered! You can answer the door in a bathrobe.

Can I go back to bed yet?
Sure!
(Huh -- I guess that enabler tag doesn't close after all.)
I have a lunch dilemna. I'm not hungry yet, because I just recently had breakfast. But if I wait until after Good Night and Good Luck to eat, I'll be starving.
And I had peanut butter on an english muffin for breakfast, so a snack of peanut butter on a rice cake is a less appealing option than it otherwise would be.
