Longing for Ethiopia


I am very sensitive to smells and often they are my memory-- strange I know! For some reason the Ethiopian coffee with my dinner last night took me back to my time there. I had an added treat to my coffee though with an herb called, "Adam's health" ( not sure of what the Ethiopian word is)... Not only did it look beautiful, but calmed the acid in the coffee and had a smoothing effect on my treat.

God has so put this country in my heart! The coffee is an added bonus... Have I mentioned how much I LOVE LOVE coffee??? I am lucky this is a safer addiction:)

Adam's health, huh? I'll be on the look for it. Whole Foods, maybe? Can I just add it to my favorite ET blend after brewing? Ymmmm! Let's try to share some coffee this month.

I know what you mean! I so miss Ethiopia, and the SMELLS!!

Luckily I found a local place (and online!) to buy awesome Ethio coffee from Sidama which brings back the good memories. But it's still not quite the same...
