ON THE BRIGHT SIDE
TUESDAY NOVEMBER 23RD, 2021
The moments our lives may be bright with possibility, dark with fear or sadness, or even plain everyday gray, but God's glory never fades. May God's glory shine into the exciting lights, upsetting darks, and boring grays of your every day.

Today is Espresso Day which celebrates a popular drink in cafes all around the world.
Luigi Bezzera invented the espresso coffee machine in Italy in 1901. His objective was to decrease his employee’s coffee break time and increase their productivity. His machine used steam pressure to force hot water through the finely ground coffee. This allowed coffee to be prepared quickly, on demand, and by the cup. The resulting brew of coffee was also stonger in flavor and body. Bezzerea’s patent was sold in 1903 to Desidero Pavoni who began producing and distributing the espresso machine throughout Europe.
To celebrate today, support your favorite coffee shop with a to go order or make your own. Enjoy!

THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Wake up and smell the coffee.
Ann Landers
I have a one cup at a time coffee machine here, but it’s called a Keurig not an espresso machine. I like it because it brews up a fresh cup of coffee when ever I want. And I can choose whatever kind I want to have. Mild or strong coffee is available in K cups. I also like to try different flavors. This morning I’m just having a cup of Breakfast Blend.
I rarely buy coffee on the go, I prefer to take my own to go cup right along with me. I have several that keep my coffee hot when I’m out and about. It’s much cheaper to make my own. I think I’d enjoy espresso and will have to look to see if its available in K cups to enjoy.
DS#4 has an expresso machine at his house and made it when I visited there. It was very good. One of his sons was a barista at Starbucks when I visited there and made excellent cups of coffee. They would make me a cup and bring it to me every morning I was there.
Not everyone has such good grandsons for sure ! Their father is a good example to them and they love to share what they are and what they do.
We’re still to be in the 30’s today so it will be a great day to a good hot cup of coffee!
I hope you all have a TERRIFIC Tuesday!

that with all who love them
they may ever praise you for your loving care.

We ask this through Christ our Lord.
Amen
GOD BLESS YOU ALL!
ADVICE FOR TODAY
The morning cup of coffee has an exhilaration about it which the cheering influence of the afternoon or evening cup of tea cannot be expected to reproduce.

There is nothing like a hot cup of coffee in the morning !
Mmmmmm! I've not had a good espresso in years -- but do make myself a strong cup (French Roast) from the Keurig each morning. Almost the same, but less labor intensive. LOL.
