we get by with a little help from our friends...




September is a glorious month in New England. Bluebird skies, warm +dry air, harvest time, foliage changing....just spectacular. We have many lovely couples saying their vows in some pretty incredible settings more this month than any other. All good right? Yes, indeed. But with all weddings ahead and some pretty exciting commercial work on tap- we are going to need a little caffeine.

It was time to invest in the good stuff. After a two day getaway to Maine and popping in on some great coffee shops, we are inspired to ditch our drip coffee maker and convert to the french press. The hope is we trade in the endless lazy refills of tepid, lukewarm coffee to find our inner Zen-like barista for that one perfect cup of joe.

A mix of inspiration and lots of research on Amazon brought us to these three gems and we made the plunge. It feels a bit indulgent for our tastes but holds such promise to be the buzz we just may need. We will keep you posted!

{ready for the change? this is what we ordered: The ergonomically designed drip kettle, the coffee bean grinder, and the french press}

A few snapshots from coffee inspiration in Newburyport, MA and Camden, ME. Our newly discovered Salty Oats Cookies are insanely good...big soft, chunky cookies with just a hint of sea salt. The perfect pairing!
