Hell, death, and love in a cup

Coffee should be black as hell, strong as death, and sweet as love.
---a Turkish proverb

My favorite morning ritual is brewing a pot of coffee, pouring it into a travel mug with a little cream and sugar, and leaving on the counter to wait for me as I rush around the apartment getting ready for work. It's my reward for leaving the house on a cold day---getting to sip it as I walk to the train, while I wait for the train, while I ride the train downtown.
