Coffee, Wine, and 40

I'm learning that the nice thing about being 40 is you are finally of an age where drinking coffee every morning and wine every night is understood by so many more in your circle. You are almost given a pat on the back for it. Maybe I am a bit more excessive than others....wouldn't have thought that but for some reason, (okay, well maybe because they are the #1 and #2 topics I tend to talk about), more and more of my facebook friends post coffee or wine images to my wall. I guess on my tombstone it should read, "She loved her coffee and wine." Maybe if more people enjoyed those morning and night rituals the world would be a little calmer, a little more accepted, a little happier....at the very least, we would be a world with a lot more in common! I would have to admit I am probably more of a coffee snob than a wine snob however. You get the wrong brew of coffee and it's just nasty, plain and simple......wine....well knowing it has the alcohol content helps you forgive a not so great vintage! So as I start my day, coffee in hand, I'm already looking forward to tonight, and that beautiful glass of wine.
