coffee talk

if you know me well enough, you'd know adrian and i are coffee drinkers. (and green tea drinkers too, but this entry is about our love for coffee).

more often than not, adrian and i will have our daily instant coffee or sometimes filtered one..but wait, its not your normal instant coffee.. its carte noir (instant granules and filtered). its strong, and just smells coffee heaven. when you have instant coffee using carte noir, youd have latte, with an extra dose of espresso.

one of the many things that make our luggage heavy to the phils, is because we bring carte noir over, and we give a big jar to each of our uncles, who love coffee too.(we spread this carte noir love so they get to taste something really nice without hvaing to go out and drink an expensive cup).

and weekends like today, we also have our slow and lazy coffee day, from our coffee machine..either an ordinary filtered, an espresso or cappucino). moreoften than not, its a cappucino for me, and an expresso for him. we use coffee beans from kenya which were our friends gifts to us (a bag lasts forever and we have about 6 bags).

i promise you, once you visit me (yes you!). you will be in coffee heaven. and starbucks wouldnt even be mentioned.
