Thanks for joining me and Coco for the September 2026 Ultimate Coffee Date. I am currently in Israel for a friend’s wedding, site seeing and adventures. More on that in my Weekly Run Down this weekend. No matter where I am, you can be sure that I am starting my day with a strong cup of coffee. Grab your mugs and let’s catch up.
September 2026 Ultimate Coffee Date
If we were having coffee, I would tell you…
Last week in Nantucket, my friend and had grand visions of getting our husbands hooked on Mahjong so we could all play together. I will admit, her husband was much more cooperative than mine. I still think (hope?) we can still get there if they can just focus. In his defense, my husband did have some work stuff come up that he had to handle. But still…I wish he could learn to like mahjong so we could play as couples as well. We shall see about that!
If we were having coffee, I would tell you…
I was initially a little nervous about flying over to Israel but now that we are here, I feel very safe. We are looking forward to all the wedding festivities over the next few days with family and friends. Despite the jet lag, we got in a nice day of touring Jerusalem. Much more detail to come in my weekly run down this weekend. This is a view of the old city and the skyline is magical.
If we were having coffee, I would tell you…
The jet lag this time is real! My Oura ring is really not happy with me and strongly suggests I need a rest. LOL. Hopefully, we can kiss and make up because I do like the positive reinforcement I normally get. Extra strong coffee sure helps!
If we having coffee, what would you tell me?
Israel! How nice! Can’t wait to hear all the details!
I can’t get my husband to play any games – with a lot of pep talk, he may sit down for a game of chess, max!
If you get your husband to play, tell me your secret!
I cannot wait to hear more about your trip to israel! The city at night looks beautiful. hope you enjoy your visit! also, I can’t remember the last time my husband and I play the game. we only owned a Scrabble for the longest time but I think we played it maybe 5 times and we’ve been married for 25 years!
Have a wonderful time in Isreal and at the wedding. Glad you’re feeling very safe. It’s been so many years (20+) since I’ve last been there. That skyline is so gorgeous!
I hope you have a wonderful time and continue to feel safe while on your trip. Israel’s night skyline is beautiful!
Neither my husband nor I are really into playing games so I have no advice for you. Hopefully, you’ll find the just the right thing to spark his interest!
Enjoy your trip and have fun at the wedding!
Wow, Israel! Sounds like an amazing place, and that skyline pic is beautiful. Good luck with your Mahjong quest 🙂
