Coffee Decisions

Will I ever understand my dear wife?


So... we get a coffee machine for the new house - a De Longhi Nespresso. It comes with a sample pack of little coffee capsules and we have fun trying each one and making notes. Well, to be exact, I make notes of the ones I like.

When the pack is nearly gone I tell her I am going to order a supply of capsules. "Which do you want me to get for you?" "I don't mind, you choose." She says. At that point, I should have done something different to what I did.

Yesterday the coffee I chose arrived - several packs of the one I like plus a few packs of decaf. This morning she wants to take a capsule to work to see if it works in their machine. When I give her one, she says "Oh, that's the strong one isn't it? I don't like them." "But you said you didn't mind, standing right here four days ago! You said you didn't care!"

"Well I do." Next came the sound of me hitting my head on the kitchen bench.
