Coffee !

[ss11943859]

I've been all over these forums & can't find the 'right forum', so mybe i'll find an answer on the front porch ? 

I have 2 cans of 'cheapie' coffee ; tried mixing them so they would be more flavorful, but not-so-much did it work. Might buy a more spendy brand & mix them, but in meantime, anyone have any ideas on how to make these cheap brands taste better ?

Thanks !

COFFEE CLUB on this mild, last Friday morning of March 2021! Another mild morning here in Wisconsin!! My coffee maker has finish brewing and I'm drinking coffee during the morning news. Remember Red Friday!

Hi @DaveMcK does Red Friday mean all things red? Do we post red? I have not made it out of bed as yet, but looking forward to my cafè when I do. Luv that first cup!!!

What is R.E.D. Friday?

RED is an acronym that stands for Remember Everyone Deployed. R.E.D. Friday was created to remind people of our heroes overseas and show that we are thinking of them. People across the country wear red every Friday to serve as a reminder and spread the message of how important it is that we keep our troops in our thoughts.

How did R.E.D. Friday Get Started?

Remember those email chains you used to get asking you to forward to 10 friends – or all of your friends? There were all kinds: some claiming ridiculous things, some trying to raise awareness for campaigns or diseases, and some that were just plain silly. This is how R.E.D. Friday originated: an email chain back in 2005.

We Americans, who support our troops, are the silent majority. We are not "organized" to reflect who we are, or to reflect what our opinions are. Many Americans, like you, would like simply to recognize that Americans support our troops. Our idea of showing our solidarity and support for our troops will be continuing on each and every Friday, until ALL of our troops come home, that every RED - blooded American who supports our young men and women, WEAR SOMETHING RED.

Picture is of me in Red with my Grandaugter. 

I like Red Coffee Mugs!

Thank you @DaveMcK for taking the time to explain. That is a very CUTE picture of you and your granddaughter. I am looking forward to the day when I become a grandma. Hmmm, I need to buy something RED to wear on Fridays.

Good morning to everyone on the Front Porch coffee club!

Irish coffee is a cocktail of sweetened coffee, Irish whiskey, and whipped cream that is not only acceptable but also expected as a morning treat on holidays. Sure, St. Paddy’s Day sees a lot of Irish coffees, but we also enjoy them on Black Friday (staying home, skipping shopping) and on both Christmas Eve and Christmas morning. Last December, assistant food editor Sheela shared her uncle’s rules for making the very best Irish coffee and, being the curious cook I am, I had to give his method a try. Just a few key points made for a better Irish coffee that is perfect for celebrating the everyday.

@DaveMcK ... Try combining the brown sugar with the Irish whiskey before adding the coffee, and make sure to warm the glass first! ☘️ Also, you may only want 1 tsp. of sugar if you are using sweetened whipped cream! 😻

A familiar face looks out onto West Rock Avenue. He’s relaxed, legs folded atop each other as if he’s got nothing but time. Two mittens peek out, thick enough to shield him from the bitter cold. From just above a blue face mask, peach-colored skin and two tufts of bright white hair complete the look.

Bernie Sanders has officially arrived in New Haven.

Westville snow sculptor David Sepulveda has returned with a ten-foot homage to U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders, whose wooly mittens and cold-weather casual attire went viral after the Inauguration of President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris in January. Sepulveda started the sculpture in his front yard Tuesday morning. He expects to be finished by Wednesday night.

“It was a matter of me not being able to deny the perfect conditions any longer,” he said after a full day of snow sculpting on Tuesday. “The snow was very textured, and very pliable. I always like to choose a theme or subject that is pretty positive, and the Bernie meme was circulating all over the place. It really felt like something that was lighthearted and fun.”

For the artist, a 36-year veteran of the Stamford Public Schools, the sculpture has been a long time coming. During his childhood in the city’s Rockview and Brookside public housing projects, Sepulveda loved “the big snows” that are now part of New Haven history. When he began working as a visual arts teacher in Stamford, he learned to cherish the occasional snow day. It was, perhaps, only a matter of time before chilly creations started showing up in front of his home, where he and his wife have lived for 33 years.
