I felt so lifted when I saw this blooming plant in the garden of the apartment building.
This is the French press I use every day, multiple times a day.
I’ve recently found that instant coffee (which is what I used to drink all day for the last year, I got lazy during Covid) is high in oxalates, which can cause a number of issues biologically (kidney stones, etc.), so I’ve switched back to regular grinding every morning and french pressing.

I’ve really gotten used to the swans, seagulls, ducks, pigeons, and other various birds that congregate together in the same spots everyday, waiting for the humans to bring bread or seed.
