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 !

There's nothing like sharing a cup of coffee with someone you love!

And there's nothing like sharing someone with a cup of coffee you love!

Oh well, whichever fits!

Poor pooch is doing his best to get the coffee right!  But coffee's not happy 'bout it.

My love for and enjoyment of coffee came late in life for me.  I was never really much of a coffee drinker when I was younger.  In fact,  I would say it was somewhere in the last two or three years that I began to drink coffee on a more regular basis--not daily, but more often than the once or twice a month routine or when I felt under the weather.  But now I find myself making that perfect cup of java on an almost daily basis.

Although admittedly, I am not adventurous (I use only one brand),  I do enjoy the "just-so-right" combination of hot, hot coffee with two super heaping scoops of coffee creamer and three to four teapsoons of my favorite sugar substitute.   I stir vigorously to make sure that all parts are thoroughly blended and then tap, tap, tap the spoon on the side of the cup, place it on the counter, lift the cup to my waiting lips, and sip. 

Ahhhhhh!  That first sip of deliciousness is the "best" especially early in the morning as the sun is rising and there is just the slightest chill in the air.  As that first sip and then the second and third goes down, I feel comforted deep within radiating without.  And by the end of the last drop, I feel my taste buds tickled,  my cockles warmed,  and my eyes wide open.

@wilful This is one of the best California coffers available here in Wisconsin! Below is there original shops. Peet's original store in North Berkeley, California. Your Coffee Festival sound like a great time. My wife and I visited her aunt several times (who has since past away) in Upland. We were there in 2009 to visit and celebrate Mary's retirement. We drove on along HYW 1 to visit other relatives along the way to Portland with a side trip to Mt St Helens. Mary with here Aunt Betty on Santa Monica pier
