This week Nathan bought us a coffee maker, despite us not actually being coffee drinkers. I was banned from coffee early on in our relationship after he first experienced me after having a coffee. We were driving to Melbourne one night after finishing work and it was cold, so when we stopped at Yass for a bathroom break, Nathan went through drive through to get a hot chocolate only to discover they didn't do them in drive through (yet), so he got me what he thought was the next best thing, a flat white. Well caffeine and I don't mix well, it makes me hyperactive, jittery and super awake. So from just after Yass, all the way to Kim and Jac's in Melbourne I talked at warped speeds, despite Nathan often asking me to stop talking several times.
The coffee machine makes pretty good hot chocolate, and with enough milk I am learning to like the decaff coffee and the weaker flavour we have. Night one Nathan picked up the strongest coffee and the hot chocolate and we had to try both. After spending the previous night up with Maddie, the couple of mouthfuls of coffee I tried, with a lot of added milk meant that I could function enough to do the books, and stay up way too late watching t.v. Since then, I have had to use the machine a couple of times a day, not that I normally drink hot drinks, but at the moment I just love them. Must be the new appliance obsession, I wonder how long it will last.
