Ode to the OPOD
I look at the coffee equipment and accessories collected on my journey as markers to remind me where I came from and to point to where I am heading. Some of these items are dearer to me than others while some are simply footnotes - items purchased on a lark, used once, and then boxed back up and placed on the shelf. The Microwave Mr. Coffee brewer I wrote about a while back is definitely a one shot wonder (actually a three shot wonder since it took this many tries to get it to work right).
