Coffee Float

affogato being prepared


This recipe is based on an affogato, but with a few tweaks.  Take some ice cream (usually vanilla, but you could also go for a coffee-flavored one as well) and pour in some cold coffee (it doesn't matter if it is iced or cold brewed).  Optionally you can add in some Irish cream or Kahlua if you like it to be more of an adult dessert.

Emotional Attachments to Coffee

Discover the emotional attachments people have to coffee and the impact it can have on their mental and emotional health. Explore the relationship between coffee and emotions, as well as coping with loss and grief through coffee rituals.  I have been watching a show with my wife called "This is us" on NBC lately.  In one episode a character makes coffee for herself and her husband because that is how her mornings usually went.  After filling up his cup the realization that he just died hits her again.  Fortunately, I have not shared that experience yet, but it made me think.        When talking about the term ritual many think about religion.  One of the definitions according to Webster is "an act or series of acts regularly repeated in a set precise manner".  When I wake up, making coffee is part of my morning ritual.  How it is done exactly is also a ritual.  I know exactly how much of each ingredient to use.  I mak...
