"Fluff post": do you make coffee at home? Provide details ...
Comments (74)A first thing in the morning infusion of caffeine is a lifeline for me!! My day doesn't get started until I have a mug of coffee in hand. I use a French press and have for years - it is quick, efficient and makes IMO the best coffee ever. My sister insists on her fancy-schmancy Italian espresso maker for her morning latte or cappuchino, but I prefer mine straight and black - no flavors ever........unless it is a dessert type, after dinner coffee drink with liquor :-) Living in the land of Starbucks and great coffee in general, good beans are not hard to find and I usually get bulk beans from one or more different outlets. Always dark roast. I prefer a coarse grind for the French press, so I get a pound a week and grind them onsite. I've yet to find a good home grinder that will produce the proper texture. And they don't lose any flavor that I can notice by grinding them and between the air tight canister and how little time they hang around, they remain fresh. I don't steep the French press long - mine actually came with a little egg-timer like device to time it. But I make it strong to begin with so long steeping is not necessary. And that first cup in the morning is like the nectar of the gods!! I could go without a lot of things in my life but coffee is not one of them!...See MoreI'll chime in with a fluff/floof post
Comments (12)I'm not a fan of those kind of shows, either. I've tried to watch an episode a few times, but all I can think of is how idiotic (for lack of a better word) it is to put yourself out there for all the world to see, in a ridiculous competition for someone's affection. How could anyone know what is 'real' when the cameras and who knows how many crew members are always right there. I do not understand the popularity of these shows, but 'different strokes for different folks', I guess. I was really NOT happy about "The Good Doctor' being replaced the other night! !

Comments (33)Our parents on both sides were on farms and used food scraps for livestock etc and what was burnable was burned. Garbage was buried until dumps came along closer to their country homes. Here we must separate all recyclables into blue bins and bags for paper/newspaper. We also are required to put compostables into a separate container. These are all taken once a week. Garbage is minimal and is picked up every two weeks. We use tall generic garbage bags and put it out once about month. Any stinkies (drip liners for meat mostly) are kept in the freezer and put out in the garbage bags....See MoreFluff post: how many umbrellas do you have?
Comments (43)I have two. One I've had for many years and it is broken. It is missing part of on of the veins, so it flops. But I use it all the time. The other I bought when I was at a store and it started to rain. I had to walk that day, so I bought the umbrella thinking it its larger size would keep me drier than my old one anyway. However, the newer big one catches too much wind and threatens to turn inside out. When it does catch the wind, I need to grab it with two hands, but I usually have a bag in one hand. So Keep using my old umbrella. It has been broken for at least eight years and now it actually has little holes breaking through at the vein joints. Waste not, want not. I won't get rid of it until it no longer works. In my car I have a 99 cent rain poncho and also one in my backpack....See More- 8 years ago
