Thank goodness for...

Peet's Coffee. I've never really been a brew-at-home coffee drinker because, somehow, I always end up with a stomach ache. When I lived in Boston, I consumed a decent amount of coffee because there was a Starbucks on every corner (there are four located on BU's campus). However, not even Starbucks is that great. They do an awful job with making sure the espresso and foam are just right (I used to be a barista at a little gourmet chocolaterie in the Hotel Commonwealth, so I know what should be goin' down). I understand that they get a ton of traffic and there's just not enough time to make sure everything's perfect, but hey, I don't want a slightly sour latté.

Anyway, the other week, Peet's Coffee came into my life because it was on sale ($2 off!) at the grocery store. I bought the Italian roast, and it's the best home-brewed coffee I've ever tasted. Definitely worth the extra few dollars! I chose to make it the subject of this post because work is just killing me! I fell asleep on the living room floor yesterday for about 20 minutes. When I woke up, BB was smiling and sitting next to me WITHOUT ANY PANTS ON. I'm lucky nothing bad happened, but I can't afford to be narcoleptic. I'm glad I have my job, but it's been a challenge to juggle this full-time job and my full-time job as a MOM. It's different when you work at an office than when you work at home with the baby right there. In the latter case, you're doing two jobs simultaneously. Thank you, Peet's, for making my life ever so slightly easier. Please help me stay awake!
