coffee

This week the prompt at Illustration Friday is fuel. Coffee is the fuel of choice around here.

My barista-husband buys green beans from Sweet Maria’s and roasts them in the oven. Yum.

About four years ago I bought him a little coffee plant. This year it produced its first berries!  I was told that in five years we’d have enough beans for one cup o’ joe. I can’t wait!

    Really great illustration. I love the texture in the hair, the hands, and the subtle curl of steam. That’s so neat about the coffee plant!
