this post is so outdated already…but let me see if i can do it justice…
thanks to kl + ml, we have been drinking a lovely peruvian coffee. on wednesday of this week, i had made the coffee *perrrrrrfectly*: the right amount of milk and sugar and just the right temperature. i drove m to work and i put my travel mug in the middle console cup holder. unfortunately, i had previously removed the “cup” that holds smaller sized drinks to make room for my oversized nalgene bottle. (so many items – not enough accommodation.) after snaking my way back home, i realized my mug had tipped over, the passenger seat was sopping wet, and, when i went to claim the last sip, there was nothing to sip. aaaaarrrrrrrgggghhhhhh – i had made the perfect cup of coffee!!! i dabbed at the milky sticky mess with (tiny) napkins from the glove compartment and revisited it later with some water and paper towels, but there is an undeniable odor of roasted coffee that pervades the car – especially on hot days.
