I went to bed last night thinking “I can’t wait to wake up tomorrow and have some coffee!”
And here we are! 🥳
#BlackHistory Every Day ~Today in Black History

May 5, 1905 ~ Robert Sengstacke Abbott founds the Chicago Defender newspaper calling it “the world’s greatest weekly.” Indeed, he would build the Defender into the largest circulation and most influential Black newspaper of its day. The Defender came to be known as “America’s Black Newspaper” and made Abbott one of the first self-made millionaires of African American descent.
If you have any to spare, this would be an excellent time to donate to World Central Kitchen.
Yesterday morning my coffee grinder cashed in its ticket. RIP trusty sidekick. Fortunately my go-to online equipment shop has a spring sale on for Eureka grinders. Unfortunately, even with 30% off I spent over $800.
I have a hand-grinder that I bought for coffee emergencies so I put it to use for a pour over. It worked ok but I miss my espresso.
Human rights are for all humans.
