French Roast

Before I begin, I must say that I have determined NOT to make any references to french hookers or fries or kisses in this article as those 3 things are what you might call a comedic prop. Not a literal prop, but, perhaps a literary prop in the U.S. pop culture...it's been used/referenced so many times it becomes a recognizable prop.

Therefore, for example, I will not say that this French Roast Coffee is so dark and strong it made me sweat breakfast blend which made my crotch smell like a French hooker by noon.

No, suffice it to say, I like my coffee strong and dark, like I like my lesbian body builders. I don't know why.

"Can you have dark but not strong?" you may ask. I will allow it.

"I think what you mean to ask is, 'is it possible to make a coffee that is dark but not strong?' or 'strong but not dark'?" I say. "Probably not."

This affordable French Roast from Trader Joe's does the trick.

It's nice to find a bag of good coffee for under $5.

Usually, just the smell of the brew sends me in to "the office" for my first "shift."

First cup usually signals the second shift.

Just making room for breakfast. More coffee.

That's all for now.
