  • I got my sense of taste taken out a couple of weeks ago, either by COVID that my tests couldn't pick up or by a particularly bad sinus infection. Pretty much everything has come back... except the taste of coffee. My wife got me a Dark Arts subscription for Xmas and I haven't even opened the first bag because it feels pointless.

  • I've got COVID at the moment.

    A few days ago I made what should have been the perfect Latte. Nailed the milk. Outstanding beans...nailed the espresso. Or at least thought I had.

    Fucking thing tasted like I'd made a mug of Nescafé with half a teaspoon of granules.

    Thankfully it doesn't appear to be lasting long.

    I had Covid for the first time a couple of weeks ago. I got SO lucky I didn’t lose my sense of taste because my morning coffee was practically the only thing keeping me alive while I was getting jumped on and hit in the head all day by my two little kids when I just wanted to crawl away and die in a corner somewhere. Not their fault but boy did daddy really need to just pull the curtains closed and sleep in the dark for a couple of days!

    A toast: to coffee!
