International Day of ??

Here's a little riddle for you.  See if you can answer this before you scroll down further:

The [??????] in this [???] will give you so much and ask for so little in return.  Treat [??] nice.  Do not freeze [??] or leave [??] in your hot car with the windows rolled up.  [??] wants to get right to work, so take [??] out, grind [??] well and give [??] a hot bath.  [??]'ll be the time of your life.

Here is a little music to help you ponder.  Think of Jeopardy music, only classier.


Did you figure it out?  Here is another hint:

A portion of the music written by Bach (above) translates as:  ""If three times a day I can't drink my little cup of [??????}, then I would become so upset that I would be like a dried-up piece of roast goat.""

Did that give away the answer?

How about a little more mood music?


So, now that you have filled in the blank with "The coffee in this bag...", wasn't it fun to imagine other potentials?  Come visit me and I'll whisper my naughty secret answers in your ear.  After all, 'grind' and 'hot bath' were included in the above statement.  There must be some fun involved!

And I'll teach you how to serve me the perfect cuppa, if you dare to try out a short play-time with Lady Fulbright of the School for Service and Slave Training.

By the way, today is supposedly the very first of the celebration - International Day of Coffee!

From The New INTERCOURSES an aphrodisiac cookbook:

Nothing beats a cup of joe.  It's everywhere, all the time.  It probably became an aphrodisiac by default.  We drink it in the morning to wake up.  We drink it after dinner to close the meal.  We have coffee in bed, on the couch, at the table.  We mix it with cream or sugar, or skim and fake sugar, or honey, no cream please.  We ice it down when we're hot.  We froth it up when we're cool.  We drink regular, decaffeinated, imported, gourmet, flavored, blended.  We use instant granules for speed, a French press for the richest taste, and a programmable drip for a Monday morning alarm.  Whether in fine china or a mug, a demitasse or tall Italian glass, coffee is an aphrodisiac we use daily.

Who knows why anyone first believed the coffee bean enhanced love?  Maybe it's the dark, rich color of a freshly brewed pot.  Or its pleasingly bitter scent wafting through the air.  Or the jolt of caffeine it pumps through our blood.  Or its alkaloids that help maintain sexual performance and delay the inevitable for a few sweet, luscious second.  Or maybe it's just because when you offer someone coffee, you are welcoming them to sit down and stay awhile.  And friendliness is always attractive.
