morning coffee

This is an old percolater from the 1960s &70"s.
it was called the "comet" i do not know why.
I recall the days of the little glass bubble boiling when the coffee was ready at Grandma's.

"Coffee is a lot more than just a drink; its something happening. not as in hip, but like an event, a place to be, but not like a location, but like somewhere within yourself. It gives you time, but not actual hours or minutes, but a chance to be, like be yourself, and have a second cup." -- Gertrude Stein, Selected Writings
