I'll proffer a coffee anecdote. Being a Baton Rouge native, coffee
every morning is a given, I assumed, since I never met anyone that did not have coffee in the morning. And probably 75% of those morning coffee drinkers: 1) Will not do
ANYTHING until we/they have coffee. Literally. 2) This applies to children as well, and I mean every kid I knew, also had coffee in the AM.
It starts around kindergarten age and it is "coffee milk", 1/2 coffee, 1/2 milk. As we got older the ratio of coffee to milk would gravitate. By junior high, it was a regular cup of coffee (most Louisiaians drink coffee with bit of sugar and a splash of milk or "coffee mate", a creamer if you will).
Well fast forward some years and I live in Texas. My son was born in Lafayette, but has been in Texas since he was 1 1/2. When he was around 9 or 10, or something like that, he went to a slumber party for some kid's Birthday.
Fairly early the next morning we get a call from the kid's parents : "your son is asking for coffee and swears he has coffee every morning at home". We told them "yes, he can have coffee". So he did. None of the other kids were from Louisiana and the parents were surprised at my son's request.
OK, enough rambling. French press River Road Coffee. My uncle started the business and now my cousins owns and runs it. It is hard for us to drink anything else. I have 7 bags of whole bean River Road Coffee sent regularly. We DO NOT run out.
We have 3 French Presses, a 53, 56, 60 ounce. Gotta have one ready to go every morning.
