Taking a break?
C'mon' sit a spell and have some coffee, 'shoot the breeze awhile'... ☺
Shouldn't be long now before the temps warm up and make gardening and other outdoor activities a lot more pleasant.
How about tea? can't stand coffee. this winter we have been using hot chocolate.
I haven't been drinking too much coffee either, since around Christmas. I prefer hot chocolate too, usually make a cup of that Swiss Miss brand, Mmmm tastes so good...
For teas I like Lipton regular orange pekoe, or else I use Jasmine tea leaves in one of those little 'straining baskets'. Mint tea if my stomach is off track, although sometimes just for the flavor.. Chinese 'gunpowder', (nasty tasting green tea), if I want to be health conscious and take in anti-oxidants... (lol)
- but the hot chocolate is yummy so I like that best!
next time I have to get the one with little marshmallows in it.
I like to mix my afternoon coffee with half hot chocolate.
Coffee lover here!
I've never done that... sounds worth trying though!
I usually drink my coffee black but sometimes I use light cream in my coffee or Cremora, especially if I order it outside. My Dw puts cinnamon in it.
Using a coffee grinder Victor?
Coffee and hot chocolate together?! Sacrilege!
Yes, WC. And special storage canisters for the beans.
Whoa... 'serious coffee dude'. (lol!)
mocha!
What kind of containers for the beans?
I just use a tin cookie canister.
Love coffee, DD to be exact. I love herbal tea's too, cran-apple cin. and wild berry are two of my favorites. And pretty much ANYTHING chocolate ^_^
Vacuum seal with a vent for the CO2 to escape. Kept on the counter. Did my research!
Was keeping the bag in the freezer. Big diff in freshness.
What about the vented bags they come in, the vacuum make that much difference? I guess the bags are vacuum sealed in the beginning. Looks like I need to do some research.
Yes, I was surprised. If you use up the bag in about ten days, freezing is okay. I'll post the model I got.
I too have storage canisters for the beans, stainless steel and I keep the bags in freezer also :)
Gezz, I keep mine in the refrigerator - in a container, (I'm taking it out right now.. lol!!).
Can you believe there is an app now where you take a photo of your plate of food and the app tells you the calorie count!
WOW....but I don't care how many calories it has! LOL
Can't see how it can do that if it doesn't weigh the food!
The canister is the Friis coffee vault.
I guess the app can estimate size??
Very cool canister! Overstock has a good deal on two.
I got two in a good deal from Amazon.
thanks for the info Victor
- Yes! Thanks!
No problem!
I'm a coffee lover too! My favorite is a double shot latte with cinnamon on top of the foam. mmmmm
Victor - that sounds like an interesting app! Do you know about fooducation? It's a neat app. You can scan any barcode and it will tell you some stuff about the product that isn't on the label - like the use of msg, which is much more prevalent than you might think.
Yes, I have seen that too. The one that really blows my mind is the one (actually a number of them now) that 'listens' to music - even your humming, and ID's the song! So cool. Theybare working on a real- time plant ID one. Can't wait!
I wish I could delete some apps from my phone!
That's my fault on the thread mix up, sorry guys. I think everyone that wanted crocosmia Lucifer has contacted me, and if I missed anyone, please let me know.
Shame she has to do that for a living..
I can hear it now - "I swear it was a mosquito, dear!!"

Sounds fishy to me!
Yes it does.
hmmm..
Aids via mosquito would be the clincher.
Bump, 'a la' robin style..
Great shot!
