dear coffee maker,

or Dear coffee gods,
i just want to thank you for guiding me into fixing my beloved Cuisinart coffee maker.


my Cuisinart sidekicks, and John Deere mug... good Texas mornin' to ya!


this morning i realized how much i take the coffee maker for granted. all it would do this morning was beep. beep, beep, and beep some more. i was getting so frustrated, but decided to unplug it and come back.
i felt so confused bc it had never freaked out on me like that, and it's not it can talk and tell me why it won't brew! so i decided to take the time and remember how i had set up the machine and what i was doing wrong this time. it's like i was jogging my brain through a relationship. wait a minute! it is a relationship!

i realized this morn i have a relationship w my coffee maker. i look out for it, clean it, praise it, and thank it for its spectacular performance.

well, the problem? some one took my machine apart to "clean it" and did not return all the pieces bc they were "air drying." i was happy to have my yummy cup 'o joe and realized that all relationships sometimes just need a little attention instead of exploding and moving on to the next best thing.

lesson learned: be patient and the world (the world being whoever you want it to be) will smile.
