OK, some of you would expect something very spiritual out of me this weekend. After all, Easter weekend is the pinnacle of our faith. And by posting this now, I am in no way making light of the awesomeness of the Easter holiday.
But, I've just found out some great news about my favorite morning beverage....coffee.
You might think that a missionary might be the most tolerant, able-to-drink-any-swill type of person. But Kenya changed coffee drinking for me. And here is my confession. I've returned from Africa as a coffee-snob. Sadly true. Kenya coffee beans are some of the best in the world, and when I came back here to the good old USA, I just couldn't get enthused about the old name brand coffee here.
Here's the great news. http://men.webmd.com/features/coffee-new-health-food?page=3
Coffee is good for you. Less chance of parkinsons, diabetes type II, cirrhosis. And it enhances athletic performance.
So in your face, coffee-maligners! I knew Coffee had to have an up side. Now, I've got a little medical proof.
So does that justify my addiction?
OK, I'm off my soapbox now. I need to go back to revising my next novel, "The Six Liter Club." (More on that later!)

LOL - That's funny; my missionary sister says Ecuador has the best coffee!
Glad to hear I can justify my mocha love. (I'm sure you drink it straight without the additives!) Because I've not only got proof from the internet, but from a doctor now!!
You are up on the latest. I have switched from Diet Coke to coffee a couple of years ago.
Harry you are the man! I knew I liked you as you are a great writer. Now, I know you are a fellow fan of great coffee. You just keep getting better and better, and better......
Yep. Going for one more cupa
