Glad to be of service. It was a bit too removed from college and class for my taste, but it was a very nice place to live on the whole. Quality of life much improved after getting a bicycle!

Isn’t that the truth. It was fine when I kept the windows closed during winter, but in the warmer months the room was sweltering thus the window was open and the trains disruptive. Seeing the Belmond Pullman rattle by was a treat though!

I am currently reading John Edward’s’ biography on Mary I. Last term I wrote a paper on the biographies by David Loades and Anna Whitelock—after the misogyny of Loades and the lack of analysis by Whitelock, I’m very pleased to be reading both a scholarly and just treatment of Mary’s life. I do have a distinct weakness to Melita Thomas’s book on Mary’s youth despite the errors contained therein. Up next on my immediate reading list is From heads of household to heads to state and Going to church in medieval England.

Course: top left is the Fellow Ode grinder with SSP burrs next to the Fellow kettle. I made the little shelf myself with a cutting board and some shelf riser legs. Tucked beneath is a small black tray with the James Hoffmann dosing cup and spray bottle on the left (I believe the dosing cup has been discontinued, sadly) atop the Acaia Lunar scale, while on the right is the Hario V60 01 in glass with an olive wood holder. In the back of the tray are my filter papers in a generic black metal holder and my daily supplements. Also in the tray is a lone chopstick used for stirring. Photobombing on the right is my pride and glory KitchenAid stand mixer.

Thank you! I couldn’t find one to the right specs so I hobbled it together using a cutting board and spare shelf riser legs.

I’ve read that many others have had QC issues, but it’s worked a treat for me.

Enjoy what you’ve got and enjoy the ride. As long as you’re finding pleasure in your coffee you’re doing something right!

Thank you kindly. It was a slow path here, but each step has been such fun!

Hahahaha she’s gotten me a few times, then reality of a tenuous financial situation got the better of her song. As soon as things are settled it’s number one on my list.
