Jerry found out about this nifty little gadget a few months ago thanks to Wired magazine, and it was perfect for us. Not only was it affordable, garnering excellent reviews from tough critics, and appealing to my coffee connoisseur hubby, but our beloved french press had been broken by someone sweet who shall remain nameless. (Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm…who me?! It was an accident, I swear!) For realz. So, with a few winter weeks left we ordered one on Amazon and put it to good use when it arrived on our doorstep. Interestingly enough, I was not even much of a coffee drinker, preferring hot tea, but this machine changed that. I look forward to this delightfully fresh-ground stuff, hand-pressed and perfect every time. At first, we were both drinking more than one cup a day, but now we’re back to our usual levels. We can just rest easy in knowing that each cup will be awesome. And, shortly after falling in love with the Aeropress itself, I added an AeroLatte to the mix and haven’t looked back since. Who knew I would be such a huge fan of homemade lattes topped with cinnamon & cocoa, laced with skim or soy milk? Yum-o. I am almost looking forward to cold months so I can embrace this daily cold-weather induced indulgence again…but for now, I shall prance about in my sandals and sundresses, drinking my hot tea and an occasional spot of coffee. Life is good.
P.S. I have so many more wonderful pictures to share since moments spent with a hand-whipped latte or a good cup of coffee at home seem to make the best photo-ops, but I’ll just share a couple for now.
