Day 9 and I've been doing squats to take the photo today so I belive that constitutes as enough for today 😅. The coffee is from Costa Rica and there's finally a danish coffee I really like (take that Sweden)

A grey, green and brown mug in stone goods standing in front of a row of little porcelain houses that holds tea lights. There's a yellow cardboard tube decorated with a red and white candy cane and the number nine.

Dy eight and it's simultaneously raining AND brighter outside than yesterday. I have no idea how that happened either. Today's coffee is from Ethiopia and is my current calendar favorite even if it's another Swedish roast 😮‍💨

A blue cup of coffee with a pattern of pink primroses on a dining table. There are lit candles and you can see a lit paper star in the large window at the end of the room. The table has a green plant in a white pot behind a pink cardboard tube, decorated with the number eight and a winter clad house.

Movie you’ve watched more than 6 times with a gif. Hard mode: no Stars (either War or Trek), LOTR, or Marvel.

Day seven and it's been so dark and grey this week that getting anything usable photo wise has been a real struggle. What I wouldn't give for a tiny glimmer of sunshine 😭. Today's coffee is from Colombia and is right up my alley which gives the Swedish roasters a lead 😬(c'mon Norway, you can do it)

A white coffee mug with green polka dots and red edges on a tray in front of a window with a lit paper star hanging in the middle. There's a lit tea candle in a green ceramic holder and a dark green cardboard tube that used to hold the coffee beans. The tube is decorated with stylized ornaments and the number seven.

Day six already and this coffee better restore all my energy. It's a late start today and I've already had a minor fight with my mom about a news article 😭. The coffee's from Rwanda today and an old favourite

Day five of my coffee calendar and today I woke up certain it was still really early (it was not) because of all the gloom. I also had som trouble deciphering the name of the Swedish coffee roasters that are called Morgon (means morning), interpreting it as Morgoth (black metal band) 😭

Coffee table with a large mug of newly brewed coffee from Costa Rica, lit candles and a cosy pillow filled corner of a sofa. There's a neon yellow cardboard tube that contained beans with the number five and decorated with mistletoe.

It's day four and I'm having coffee in bed because getting up is not really my thing today hence the hastily put together tray 😁

Today's coffee is from Kenya and almost what I like best but not quite. It tastes delicious none the less 🙂‍↕️

Dark wood tray with a pink patterned cup and saucer, two lit tea candles in silvered metal and glass holders, a Christmas tree napkin and a booklet describing the speciality coffee calendar coffees. There's a pink cardboard tube that held the coffee beans, decorated with green and yellow presents and the number four for day four of the calendar

Day three of the calendar and I've been out all morning to get stabbed by needles and stuff. The coffee is from Colombia and is my favorite so far and the jam I made yesterday was really tasty 😋

A cup of coffee in modern design, a yellow cardboard tube with a knitted sock and the number three and lit candles on the table. There's a slice of bread with blackberry jam.

Just finished making blackberry jam for Christmas gifts and now I’m extremely sticky. In a couple of days I’m making marmalade and will probably get even stickier 😅

Day two of my coffee/cup calendar and today's coffee is from Ethiopia and roasted in Copenhagen. Ethiopian coffees are almost always a favorite for me and this one is no exception. I have a long day ahead of me where I'm going to attempt making jam for some gifts 🙂‍↕️

Pink, red and blue cup filled with black coffee in front of a dark green cardboard tube that used to contain coffee beans and marked with the number 2. The tube is decorated with a yellow gingerbread man with a pink bow tie. There are lit candles and a decorated tree out of focus in the background.

It's the first day of 24 days of speciality coffee and the unofficial "how many coffee mugs/cups does Anne have" advent calendar. The first coffee is from Colombia and while it's nice I can already tell there will be others I like a lot more. It was a good start to my day regardless 😋

Tomorrow is the first day of my annual fancy coffee advent calendar. Every year it's the best part of the days before Yule but if you find my coffee addiction annoying I will be trying my best to put the posts into a single thread so you can mute me 😅

24 cardboard tubes in bright blue, green, pink and greens with winterly cartoon figures decorating them. The tubes contain 50 grams of coffee beans from 12 different scandinavian coffee roasters.

A movie that takes place where you're from.

LOL

The movie poster for the motion picture "The Snowman" (2017) that is supposed to be based on Jo Nests book Snømannen but that bares little resemblance to anything poor Jo ever has written. Michael Fassbender does not do his best when he tries to solve all the clues the snowman gives him

I spent the last few days giving away old furniture and building my new sofa. Everything hurts, I still have a pile of cardboard to cut up so I can get it into the recycling bin and I'm so pleased with how it turned out 😁

Living room with a grey sofa with lots of pillows and a BT21 Shooky a dark wood and black metal coffee table and an oriental rug. There are framed pictures on the wall, a hanging plant and a green standing lamp behind the sofa.

My mom got me a new (100 year old) table for my birthday and I love it so much 😭

An old kitchen table with visible wear and tear placed in front of a window. A Norwegian dragon chair is placed on one side and there are plants and candles on the table.

A bit of a morning emergency. No coffee 🫘. Then I remembered my coffee subscription had shipped and ran (not really, more like dragged) myself downstairs to the mailbox. Success!

Two bags of fancy coffee beans from Sognefjord Kaffibrenneri. One is called Sshantawene and is from Ethiopia and the other Sabdy Lopez from Guatemala

My mom was just here with some birthday flowers from one of my aunties. She also brought my uncle's teenage Jack Russell so now I'm exhausted (forgot to take a picture of her 😭)

First Yoongi photo I saved 😭

Min Yoongi in a gray hoodie, black hair and with simple silver hoop earrings. He is pouting very devestatingly. He's wearing in-ears so it's taken on a stage somewhere

I woke up to @haruharuot7.bsky.social delivery in my mailbox. I love all of it, I know I told her I love Yoongi with all my heart but I don't think I told her how much D-Day means to me.
The notebook is great, the stickers are fantastic and I'll be framing the postcards to hang on my wall 💜

Delivery of several items from Cricket Radio on Etsy spread out on an oak table. A black Travellers Company cover with D-Day over a pair of red chopsticks embossed on the back and an eye with a blue scar on the front. Postcards with BTS and ARMY logos in various shades of purple depicts the universe and our whales. Paper stickers of Yoongi in various places on the D-Day stage and about ten other stickers of various BTS things (some of them are dishwasher safe).

The moon was behind an oddly shaped cloud when I was opening my window so I won't boil (thank you menopause) over night so I tried taking a picture of it. For once I got something I actually like and want to share, I'm usually a terrible photographer 😅

Night time picture of a large pen shaped dense white cloud that blocks the moon itself but not the light that is being reflected off it. In the foreground there are autumnal trees where all the leaves have turned orange. There is also a glimpse of a parking lot. The colors are dramatic, the night time sky is almost purple, the trees are orange and there are dark trees in the background. The parking lot is lit up and tease the cares standing there.

Minor medical rant: For one glorious moment, about six months ago all hundred of the really, really small beta blockers I take came in one package that barely took up any room in my medicine drawer. Now I once again get them in five big boxes with the most irritating blister packs known to man
