Coffee and Other Joys

Coffee:  the first sip is always the best.  The instant I drink the first sip, I sigh with happiness.  It is calming.  The last sip is the worst because it’s gone!  I like drinking my coffee and eating a cinnamon doughnut, cinnamon scone, or coffee cake.  Coffee with something sweet is such a treat.  It is a simple thing that makes me happy.
