Today I realized sometime rather interesting. I was in the kitchen doing my regular morning duties. Stocking the coffee machines, (how glamorous… sometimes I wonder why I volunteered to help out with that) when I realized something. The bag that was full of espresso beans for the latte machine was almost empty and the bag that had regular coffee beans was very full. This was strange because just last week, I stocked all the beans and filled the regular coffee machine with beans ready to be ground and used. Then… It all came back to me, the little complaints of how the coffee was a bit bitter, the remarks on how people have been more energetic in the morning (blamed on the sunshine) and most importantly, “man, this coffee is strong, I think I should put some brown sugar in it” remarks. Yes, That is correct. I put espresso beans in every pot of coffee that people have been making for the past 3 weeks! Ooooyyyy Vey… People have been drinking pots of espresso, not just shots, like in say… a latte.. POTS! I have tried to scoop out all of the beans from the machine, but it’s a bit of a lost cause. The beans have wormed themselves down all the tunnels and chutes of the machine. So technically now people are drinking half and half. Some people like that in their coffee, right? So what if it’s not half and half cream… I guess anything is better than full strength espresso coffee…
