Prior to COVID-19, I never had a coffee maker but visiting cafés is on hold for now. I love this one because it is so easy to use.
Here are the simple steps:
1) fill the tall steel mug with water;
2) pour that water into the coffee maker's tank;
3) place the plastic cup and filter into the coffee maker;
4) add the ground coffee;
5) plug in, switch on, wait.
Ok, very simple right?
Well, here are the various scenarios that have happened (with some disastrous results):
1) I've forgotten to add the water;
2) I've added the water to the mug but forgotten to pour it into the tank;
3) I've added the water to the tank but forgotten to add the coffee;
4) I've added the coffee but before putting in the plastic cup and filter;
5) I've added the coffee and water but forgotten to plug it in;
6) I've plugged it in but forgotten to switch it on.
Now, with my coffee I have a toasted bagel with peanut butter.
Here is my latest scenario regarding the toaster (which luckily has no separate pieces):
1) I've forgotten to plug in the toaster;
2) I've spread the peanut butter on the bagel prior to toasting.
The problem is: I need a cup of coffee in order to be alert enough to make a cup of coffee!!
