Again, some bonus pictures taken for today’s challenge post, of the inverted AeroPress method and our coffee setup. ☕️

The Micro.blog challenge word for day 2 is “morning beverage”. My morning beverage is black coffee, using beans from Imperfect Foods, freshly ground, and an AeroPress using the inverted method. Best served in a Dejal mug, of course. ☕️📷 #mbfeb
Some bubbly from last year’s New Year celebration. Been quite the year, eh? Here’s hoping 2021 will be better. 🥂 #ThrowbackThursday
The Micro.blog challenge word for day 26 is “adjust”. Here’s the table setting for Thanksgiving last year. This year requires some adjustment, just Jenn and me. Stay safe out there, so you can celebrate future Thanksgivings! 📷 #mbnov
The Micro.blog photo challenge word for day 24 is “frosty” (suggested by @canion). It isn’t frosty weather here at present, so searching my photo archive revealed this frosty beverage with a foldable straw from our trip to Mexico last year (remember travel?). 📷 #mbaug
The Micro.blog photo challenge word for day 13 is “filter” (suggested by Spratte). While we have various filters around the homestead, the first ones that came to mind are AeroPress coffee filters. 📷 #mbaug
I’ve enjoyed the Vulcan Hello podcast from Scott McNulty and Jason Snell about Star Trek Discovery and Picard, so naturally I ordered the themed tea sampler from their amazingly appropriate sponsor New Mexico Tea Company as a gift for Jenn. 🖖☕️
I’ve been trying the inverted AeroPress method over the last few days. I think I might prefer it, if only because it builds in steeping time while preparing the filter, plus easier to get to the filters without the plunger in the rack. ☕️
On Saturday during our Hood River mini vacation, Jenn and I did some tastings at a couple of wineries. We were planning to visit more, but felt we had enough after two. We went to Syncline Winery and COR Cellars.
