I feel like so often here on the UU I am talking about my weekend, but the fact is, my life really takes flight on the weekends. During the weekdays, I live in a haze of 5AM wake-ups, daily workouts, and rushed dinners. Sometimes, by the time Friday comes around, I almost can’t believe how quickly the week has zipped by. Last week was one of those weeks, especially after the Easter Long weekend – time just flew by, and suddenly it was Friday.
If you’ve been reading along here on the UU for a while, than you may already know that I made the painful (really, heartbreaking) choice to break-up with coffee… Well, break-up with coffee during the weekdays, and get back together on the weekends. Yes, I have a caffeine love affair that starts each Friday, and ends each Sunday.
These days each week I look forward to my Friday even more than I used to, because now not only does it signify two glorious days spent however I like – it also means I get to drink as much coffee as my heart desires. Now that I view my coffee more as a treat than a staple, I find that I like to try new types and make it more of a special thing than just a simple cup of coffee. Nomad Coffee heard about my weekend treat and loved the idea so much that they offered to send me a few of their favourite coffees to try.
So come Saturday morning, I decided to un-wrap my Nomad Coffee package to give Pig Iron Coffee a whirl – and let’s just say that both Jer & myself are officially obsessed. Pig Iron Coffee is a Canadian based company in Mississauga with three unique blends currently- the Steel Wheel Espresso, Decaf Wolf, and the Ethiopia Borana; their coffee changes seasonally though so these three blends won’t be available permanently. We received the Ethiopia Borana and loved it’s incredibly rich, and decadent taste.
What I love about Nomad is their subscription plan which allows you to have new, unique, and delicious beans sent to you monthly. I love being able to wake up on a Saturday to try a new delicious coffee, and Jeremy was excited that he could switch up his daily coffee with something a little more bold and luxurious. The beans they send are all from independent Canadian roasters, and Nomad themselves are a Canadian company – go Canada go!
