Stream of Consciousness Saturday – Prompt – “In a Nutshell”
When the coffee machine knows the need and desire for the relief the beverage promises, has reached an apex, it then decides it needs a cleaning.

Thinking back to the day when working a farm, the most reliable way to motivate a recalcitrant piece of machinery was a sharp physical […]
Finger Point Prompt – Bullet

Stream of Consciousness Saturday – Prompt – Spruce
The aroma of coffee fills the air, and while a spruce-up of the machine takes place, a thought comes to me. When the machine delivers the coffee, there must be another trip into the past. The coffee pours forth from the spouts into my cup as if answering a wish. The crema finish lets […]
