Of love and coffee .

It is fascinating how much beauty is found in the little things in life, for example, meeting a very special person on any given day, by pure chance, another example could be enjoying a small cup of coffee and why not the two together.

I met the woman I love eight years ago and from the first moment I knew she was a coffee lover. From that moment on coffee started to make sense to me, of course it has always been an important beverage on a cultural and personal level, but when that mystical connection between two people and a cup of coffee intervenes, things change.

Since we started living together one of my fascinations has been to make her a pot of coffee in the morning and another one in the afternoon. I enjoy watching her drink it and from it emanate endless conversations that water our day to day life. Sitting down to talk while sharing a good cup of coffee connects us lovingly.

Once Aly told me that she was falling more and more in love with me and although she knew and loved all my virtues and defects, sometimes she felt she was going to burst with love. I didn't hesitate to tell her: It's because of the coffee. This answer surprised her, before her questioning face I clarified: every morning and every afternoon when I prepare your coffee, I add some incantation to keep you in love. This resolution enchanted her and since then, every time she can, she tastes her cup of coffee, sighs and tells me: This enchanted coffee, I love you more every day.

And that is how coffee, an attention and a joke conspired to make two lovers smile and find a reason to smile and love each other every day. At home we never lack coffee, just as we never lack love and care, so this week when we are celebrating international coffee day in this amazing community, I energetically join in to celebrate this balm of love and good vibes.

I hope you enjoy this loving story with the aroma of coffee, I also share with you the photos of this afternoon, when my dear Aly and I sat down to talk and share a nice cup of coffee.
