The poet T.S. Eliot once said, “My life is made up of coffee spoons.” I can identify with this every morning when I set my mug on my Keurig appliance. It’s easy to use and makes a decent brew – not spectacular, but it does the trick.

When I’m out and order a really good cup of java, I wonder if I should go back to the old days when I perked or dripped the beans. I used Mr. Coffee and before that, percolator coffee pots, both stovetop and electric. I think they are antiques now.
