Ode to the coffee

Has off to the person who invented coffee! To me, no other thing is as refreshing as a frothy cup of coffee. I remember those days just before entering the college life. My only thought was neither- "Will I have good friends?", nor - "Will the food be good?". It was "Will the coffee be good?". Well, it may sound as an exagerration , but it is true. I am so interested in coffee that I like even Coffee ads. There is nothing else so pleasurable than to have a cup of coffee while listening to either your good friend or your favourite music. What music is for my ears, coffee is for my palate. Look at this quote:

I believe humans get a lot done, not because we're smart, but because we have thumbs so we can make coffee. ~Flash Rosenberg

I don't like the word coffee-addict...it sounds as if it is wrong. I would rather prefer coffee-lover.

Nothing else can provide such a feast to the senses:

You hold the coffee mug in your hand-you sense that heat

You bring that coffee nearer- your olfactory senses bathe in the sweet aroma of coffee

You then look at the coffee- your eyes enjoy the golden brown color of the blend

Finally,as you have your first sip of coffee- that's when heaven comes to the earth and swirls on your tongue.

As you finish the last drop - A feeling of misssing your best friend will creep up in your mind.

Coffee smells like freshly ground heaven. ~Jessi Lane Adams

In Germany 4 o' clock is called cafe & kufu time - coffee and cake time.In India the Indian Coffee Houses became an icon of the worker's struggle.In Swedish culture, coffee plays an extremely important role as a social lubricant through a process known as fika, or a leisurely coffee break. I can never forget the day when I was truly surprised by the endless list of coffee varities in the menu board of a coffee house(wondering where? Well, it was inbetween England and France!yes!on board on a lovely ship!) These are some of the things I remember:

1. Mocha Coffee
2. Cappuchino
3. Coffee Latte
4. Espresso
5. Irish coffee
6. Chocolate coffee

Wow!That was great....I can never forget that wonderful low-cream coffee with a couple of coconut cookies and a croissant. I think I can end this with a note:

I have measured out my life with coffee spoons. ~T.S. Eliot
