If you are a frequent reader of this blog, or a friend of mine, you know how much I love my coffee. Coffee is as important to me as water.

Me: From A to Z

By far not the most original blog idea, but this stems from a daily writing prompt. What is cool about something like this, is that I can probably return to this idea a few times and come up with some different answers.
