coffee clutch
September 2, 2011 § Leave a comment
I carry it like a well admired handbag. My coffee has become an expensive, temporary, disposable clutch that accompanies me through my day. Like a small, over-priced handbag with a designer label, my signature cup whispers you deserve this indulgence.
Some days I pretend it isn’t a treat, it is functional. The coffee induced energy boost helps me get more done. Other days, I use medicinal claims; it eases a headache. Sure, I rocket through errands and house cleaning propelled by caffeine and, most of the time, coffee dulls my headaches. I know, it is something more.
I am in a love affair with an experience. I like the familiarity of my coffee shop, the playful banter with my barista, the rich flavor of my treat, and the signature cup that I wear like a clutch.
