My First Coffee Moment


Not much of interest going on in this one, but a start, nevertheless! :-)

Arrival of the Bean

POP! the Bean has arrived. This our first blog, and like a bean i am sure with the right attention it will flourish into a blooming good read.

The idea is easy, if you are reading this you most probably have bean for and the moment has now passed. But for a brief period of time everything stops and a moment begins. What we want to do is capture this moment for all to see and read about what you can't see in the pictures.

So a few basic rules start to be formed. Originally this was just about passing pictures between friends of bean-for-coffee moments where all the pictures took on a set scene but with an individual twist, so here we go...the rules....

1. All blogs must start with the picture
2. The scene must be the same every-time:

  • Coffee(s)
  • Juice
  • Something to read
  • something interesting in the background to form some of the discussion
3. Goodtimes

That's it.

Now for the first blog I am going to break all the rules, as i can and talk about my Gaggia Classic home coffee machine. Been blogged about before i know but it is a beast. So couple of picture, firstly making a coffee and secondly the coffee moment, in the back garden. My wife was out, i was doing the Dad thing, hence the baby monitor. But you can see the basic scene being set.



The classic Americano - Jazzed it up with the candle because I could, Lynsey was in Palma with her friend so the moment was one of piece and quiet with a smug feeling that I can get my daughter Jamsine (not yet 2) ready for bed and sleeping before 7pm.

Who's the Daddy!
