This is how I fight off coffee addiction. To make coffee, I use a Zassenhaus hand grinder and a French press. The grinder belonged to my father. It’s an antique with some wear and tear, but it still grinds up coffee beans perfectly well. Making coffee this way is a manual process, but I like it. It becomes a special ritual, something I don’t do every day.
Yet more proof that the UK is one of the best countries in the world:
The Chief Mouser to the Cabinet Office is the title of the official resident cat of the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom at 10 Downing Street. Only two cats, Humphrey and Larry, have been given the title officially; other cats were given this title affectionately, usually by the British press. There has been a resident Treasury or Downing Street cat employed as a mouser and pet since the reign of Henry VIII, when Cardinal Wolsey placed his cat by his side while acting in his judicial capacity as Lord Chancellor, an office he assumed in 1515.
