Noble Coffee Shop baristas wear long black aprons, which lend them the appearance of coffee wizards as they slip around behind the counters and cases, brewing drinks, dashing out to the roaster and grinder to create more.
Judging from this cuppa, it’s wonderful magic at work.

They are magicians indeed. I, on the other hand, resemble a coffee zombie, as I grind and brew that first cuppa every morning!

Yeah, I’m of the coffee zombie sort (a cofbie?), myself, too, unable to articulate words, confounded by what I’m supposed to be doing, barely with a pulse until that magic brew finds my throat.
