this and some buttered toast get me going literally every morning.
1. Fill water in your moka pot until just below the safety valve
2. Fill the funnel with dark roast. La llave or bustelo are good.
3. Brew over medium heat
4. Fill a measuring cup with sugar. As many tablespoons of sugar as cups you’re gonna make.
5. Pour the first drops that come out of the top of the moka pot into the sugar. Let the coffee finish brewing.
6. Stir the shit outta the sugar and bit of coffee until it’s insanely foamy and smooth.
7. Pour the finished coffee into the foamy sugar and mix.
8. Serve in some little espresso cups
(If you want you can also exclude the sugar and just stir in some steamed milk)

I should start out saying that I don’t care a lot about coffee even though I drink loads of it, or I have in my life (I’ve been trying to drink less). Elijah recently got a Moka Pot Brikka - the one that ‘cremes’ at the top… not the easiest to find without Amazon. My mom gave me a Bodum milk frother last year for Christmas that I never used… until now. We drink the caps out of the Bookworks x Cafe Nyleta cups, because it's one of the few matching mugs we have. It’s turned out to be a very fancy way to start the day and I recommend it to anyone who wants additional kitchen-ware.

Sometimes you can just exist. you don’t (hopefully) need 50 hustles. You don’t need to be a writer and musician and artist and podcaster and influencer and girlboss or whatever. you don’t even need to signal how cool or smart or attractive you are. I know it’s hard cause I think our society incentives (forces?) people to be “on” all the time, but it’s probably better for your own sake to just exist for yourself and your love ones and to adjust your expectations of what a successful or meaningful life is.
Sorry for being pedantic, just know a lot of friends and family my age or younger that seem to be struggling right now in all sorts of ways. Just know, regardless of what anyone says or even what you say or do, that you guys have inherent dignity and you are worth something
