Elixir of the gods

Just want to share with you my first cup of proper, non-instant, non-watered-down-espresso coffee in MONTHS. Filter coffee simply isn't a thing here. You can't get it in cafés or restaurants. I had to go on a city-wide search just to find a standard drip coffee machine! The store dedicated to coffee had no clue about such a thing. I had to order my coffee filters off Amazon because no grocery store carries them.

But now, after hundreds of thoroughly disappointing cups of instant "coffee," I am taking my first sips of the real thing from my special mug. I actually have warm fuzzies in my tum (or maybe that's just the relief of my withdrawal symptoms). Regardless, for the next 15 minutes, all is right with the world.

Tip your Tim's server extra for me, hey?
