My replacement cold brew maker finally came. It’s the same brand and model as the last one I broke a few days earlier. See Broke My Favorite Cold Brew Maker. It’s so new, shiny, and not stained by years of use.
What was once three cold brew makers, became two, now turned to three again. Like the Triforces of Courage, Power, and Wisdom combined. The One Who Was, the One Who Is, and the One Who Will Be. It’s the beginning, middle, and end of the story. The Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. Okay, you get the idea.
The important thing is my coffee supply won’t run out any time soon. Peace is achieved and the world won’t end, for now.
The worst part of cooking is doing that while watching your children. Once again, the evils of multitasking rears its ugly head. While moving a cutting board filled with cooked chicken breasts I knocked my cold brew maker off the counter.
My five cup cold brew maker, the one my wife bought for me, broke into big and smaller pieces. I cursed at myself for being this careless. Luckily, me and my kids didn’t get hurt. I managed to pick up the pieces and vacuum the floor.
During cleaning, my wife bought another cold brew maker for me from Amazon. Which is nice, I love her. I still have two newer and larger cold brew makers, but I still mourn for my old one. I’ve drank from that maker and brought it to fellowships for years.
Well, thank you for your service, five cup cold brew maker. I’ll see if this new one, that’s coming, can fill in your shoes.
Back in December, after the Christmas lights show at my county fair, my family and I made a late night stop at a recently opened Yemeni cafe several blocks away from our home. I bought a hot pistachio latte for myself, a strawberry refresher for my wife, and a chocolate croissant for all of us to share. Everything was delicious, but pricey (about $21 before tip).
Moka & Co. has more traditional Yemeni coffee choices and plenty of desserts like baklava and more savory items like samosas. As far as cafe corporate chains go, Moka & Co. is clean and the food and drink items are better than Starbucks and some Peet’s Coffee locations. I know there’s another smaller Yemeni cafe chain a few more miles away from our house and I plan on trying it in the near future.
So if Moka & Co. is in your neighborhood, give it a try. And yes, I do recommend the pistachio latte.
