Everybody has those memories that maybe wouldn't make it into a top ten list, but it's a memory you will always cherish just the same.
I don't remember how old i was. I don't remember the year. I don't even remember where we were. I just remember it was morning, and Kierstin was pouring herself a cup of coffee. She was so much older and more mature than i was. I asked her what coffee tasted like, and she handed me her mug. She told me to try it.
I knew i would never drink coffee again.
Things have changed since then. I'm older, and i've actually developed a taste for the bitter stuff. I don't make coffee everyday, but every so often i'll pull out the ol' coffee maker.
Well, imagine my surprise this morning when i read today is National Cafe au Lait Day. Yep. It's a thing. And it's today, of all days.

ReplyDeleteI think it's these kind of memories that are the most important to cherish and celebrate. I hope the coffee warmed your heart a bit on this day.
