That sounds amazing!!! I don’t drink coffee though haha

Both aspects are at the absolute minimum, good and can very easily be elevated to awesomeness with just the slightest modest effort or technique. True dat eh @FortCluck ???

My husband is a coffee fanatic. He can guess all the undertones in a coffee

I guess people now magically think that it's safe to go against the directive again, because we went to breakfast and then to the pet store for dog food... no one waiting for a seat at the restaurant was masked (employees were) - but at least groups were standing at least 6' apart. No one in the pet store was masked either, not even employees, other than a family that was leaving as we got there. Newsflash - just because restaurants are allowed to open again doesn't mean it's "safe" out there!

WHO THOUGHT THIS WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA!?!?!

That's... coffee? I mean I love flavored coffee, but... no thanks on Twinkies coffee.

Coffee drips are the best. All you use is a filter, ground coffee, and Boiling water. Then throw the coffee grinds and filter into your compost pile.

French press for me. Presses are inexpensive and easy to use, no need for a filter. A $10 grinder + $20 press and it's the easiest, smoothest, most cost efficient cup of coffee you'll find. I also have a cold brew pitcher mostly because I need one bigger than a standard French press and it's easier to moderate steep time when you can remove the filter of grounds whenever you want.

They say French press isn’t good for those with heart issues. The filter takes out the coffee impurities that are bad for you.

Considering I chew on coffee beans, I can't think using a French press is going to be worse than that...

Cayenne chocolate chunk ice cream (hubs). I got strawberry daiquiri Italian ice

Okay, Folks. Hold the Phone. I have an urgent prayer request. My uncle in PA was just hospitalized with Covid. My Aunt is positive, but not hospitalized. That's ALL the information I have, as I can't reach my Stepmom to get more details. She and my 84-year-old father were just visiting Dean and Joyce two weeks ago - and were comfortable enough to share hugs all around. My Dad has multiple life-threatening issues - any one of which could take him at any time of any day, with no warning. I am physically sick over this.

DO NOT think the slow down means "Done."
Stay alert. Stay anally cautious. STAY PROTECTED!
And please, pray for my family.
Dawn

As with all things, prayers & well wishes sent. (Cyber hugs as an added bonus too)

Hubby's choice sounds VERY Yummy. I'm very curious as to the cayenne accent. Is it a hint? A heavy handed slap to the back? A backhand to the face? Inquiring minds want to know & all that.

Often I have put cayenne as a accent or a major flavor in my morning lemon, honey, turmeric drinks.....
