French Press


This weeks inspiration is to shoot which material possession you could not live without. Hmmmmm hard one!

Reflecting on this prompt over the week I kept on changing my mind. In the end I kept on coming back to my coffee plungers ( I have two larger ones at home and a small one at work, having long ago given  up on modern coffee machines; I love the french press). You see,  I am completely addicted to a good cup of coffee. Or two.  Some people at the day job remark about the delicious fresh coffee smell that drifts out of my office, and at home there is always a fresh cup on hand.

 Until I can kick this cafe drinking habit, the reality is, I could not possible live without my french press.

Oh yes, coffee is such an important start to my day! Though, I cannot drink instant or plunger (I just can't say why???) so I'm in a terrible habit of picking up a takeaway at my favourite coffee shop after school drop off..it's the best part of my day! I savour every last drop.. thanks for popping by, have a great weekend!
