After clicking the power button on my drip coffee maker I went outside to do some chores. Walking about I had a thought, “What can I get done before the coffee is ready?”
There are many things you can do in the short wait. Here are the three different things I do while waiting for my brew.
1. Take care of critters. Feed and water dog, rabbits, and chickens.
2. Pay several bills.
3. Tweet to my coffee friends. This is the funnest, but is more fun with a fresh cup in hand.
Ding. That’s it. The brew just finished. Time go drink coffee.
What can you get accomplished while waiting for your brew?
Hi! We're Joe and Monica, The Coffee Couple. If you love coffee as much as we do, pour yourself a mug and pull up a chair to join the conversation as we talk everything java.

While I wait for my tea-water to brew:
1) Stretch and situps (to get warmed up)
2) Pray
3) Peek at e-mail via iPad.
Paying bills seems like a Horrible! way to start your day!
