Mindless masses late for work hurry to Starbucks for their daily shot of caffeine. A shallow act that requires quick gratification at the cost of grace. I have created this coffee station in the kitchen for the coffee drinker in my home. Even a less than desirable habit can be elevated to a personal ritual by celebrating the moment with appreciation and elegance.
I love you Almine..but its only a shallow act if we deem it to be so or if those engaged engage in the activity with shallowness…and also, coffee CAN be very, very healthy, IF it is unprocessed and in its original organic form 🙂 That said, I understand the point and am grateful for your unendless insights. Thank you.
There is a herbal coffee style drink that I use and it helped me alleviate the caffeine habit (daily caffetieres). It has lots of lovely flavours and importantly for a coffee drinker has a very similar texture and consistency. I gradually cut back and replaced cups with the herbal coffee. It’s called ‘Teechino’. Apologies if this sounds like an ad, but it’s been nagging at me for a few days to share!
With Love

Ha! Love the European touch! Done with ultimate grace!
So inspiring!
An adorable and fancy little station! What a cute and sweet gesture.
hahahaha- I Love to see that.. we Germans/Swiss’/Austrians love to drink coffee from beautiful and thin porcellan.. but this tradition is fading to mugs!
or paper cups and stainless steel “super-size” thermos in USA… Another place to bring wholesomeness into such everyday things that have lost their sense of soul…
Oh my, this is elegant. 🙂
