4:30 a.m.
OMG!
My first cuppa in 5 months!
And, oh, my brain is all a’flutter…
Neurons are revving up to fire…
New brain wrinkles are waiting to fold…
My taste buds are salivating
with anticipation!
And my mood? Elevating already.
But I wondered…
Is all this in my imagination?
Or real?
So I Googled…
And ah hah!
It seems coffee…
a.k.a Joe, mocha, Java, cafe noir, jamocha…
Actually improves various aspects of brain function…
Including memory, mood, vigilance, energy levels,
Reaction times and general cognitive function.
Just thinking about coffee.
I’m feeling smarter and happier already…
And my creative juices are flowing!
So into the kitchen I went…
To fire up my coffee pot…
When suddenly…
Patti LaBelle’s song, “LadyMarmalade”
Perked up in my head…
With a few altered lyrics of course:
Hello, hey Joe…
Wanna give it a go?
Itchi Gitchy Ya Ya Da Da
Itchi Gitchy Ya Ya I do, I do
Mocha, Java, Café noir…
This ole lady's gonna brew you.
And what about you?
Any food or beverage get you this fired up?
Always,
Em-Musing
