There is a new coffee machine in the House of Y

Yesterday, people of blogland, J got himself a new, state-of-the-art espresso maker thing, with shiny parts and foaming implements.

(I’m not sure I’ll get permission to use it.)

This afternoon, after much fussing, he made me a latte. I should say he designed, created, perfected a latte. I had to bow before I was allowed to drink it.
It’s a professional one, you know, he said smugly. Just like in real coffee shops.
Would you like my loyalty card? After ten cups, you get a slap.

I have a very harmonious home life.

"I have a very harmonious home life."

And you have your coffee made for you. What more could you want?

ASDA brand mochas? *shudder* Oh, the pity of it, Iago...

(10 coffees = one slap? You know, at Costabucks, that is on the "special" menu...)

'kin 'ell, aren't Asda getting all fancy these days. A rollback mochachoca frappe latte just doesn't get me patting my arse though.

Sortof: a mouthful of abuse. That's what I get. You've heard him.

Hers: well, since you're asking: a live-in masseuse and a private indoor swimming pool.

Missfee & Gripes & 30-something: asda, that's a whole unknown continent to me. I'm counting my blessings.
