Why I Love Folgers and Extra Crunch Peanut Butter

In this day and age you don't hear many people saying that they love grocery store coffee like Folgers or Maxwell House. Starbucks is the king of coffee even though they bastardize it whenever they can (ie macchiato?). But I have come to realize that there is nothing more satisfying than pouring a good cup of coffee in the morning and just enjoying it for what it is. It may not be good to the last drop, mainly b/c I hate cold coffee. Folgers may not be changing the world or pushing fair trade organic beans, but it makes millions of people content with their lives everyday. I am becoming increasingly aware of the fact that it is the small things in life that make you content that really make a person happy. A solid cup of coffee while walking my dog early in the morning before the eastern North Carolina humidity bears down on me is pretty satisfying. That white bread sandwich with extra crunchy peanut butter brings me back to childhood, whether it be with bananas or food lion brand strawberry jam (I'm not above it). Its not just the small satisfying things in food and drink that count, though food makes me really happy, but in everything. To all of my friends that joke me and say I dislike all things happy and fun; I seem to be having an off day because I am in a really good mood being extremely content with the little things. I am about to go have a very simple sandwich from a very simple deli run by simple people. Sounds like a good lunch to me.
