Our Morning Coffee and Weather

[daytime dave]

Happy Mother's Day everyone.


I took it out of the dish drainer, so it's coffee again with plain Jane today. It's a beautiful day here.

I hope yours is nice. Time to call mom now.

Here the way I make a perfect cup of coffee ............ I brew a fresh cup of coffee ever cup . The coffee brewing kit cost under $ 5 at your super market . Three tricks , I use only use bottled water and NEVER pour water over 200 degrees over grounds . I nuke the water in measuring cup for 2 1/2 mins for 1 1/2 cup of water to where it don't boil and last only pour enough water over ground that I just grind to wet them all and wait 20 second and then finish pouring . Now you have a perfect cub of coffee without the high cost of Starbucks . Below is how I do it and the coffee maker I use . I have also have a 4 cut pour over maker for when I have guess

That commercial makes me want to go out and buy one. I had been making my tea with too hot of water. Some of the hikers are Oriental and gave me tips. Second tip was to buy leaves and not tea bags with "dust" in them.

I buy the loose tea sometimes and use that coffee maker to filter the tea leaves after I brew the tea . Walmart has the cone #2 coffee filter for 100 of them for $1.89 .

Walmart sells it with a cup for $5

Made coffee ice cream this morning!

Back in 1953 I remember Breyer's had coffee favored ice cream . It was my favorite favor and I still get Breyer coffee ice cream today . .

Heading to fix my second Henry mug of double mocha this cool, rainy morning.

I really liked DD's picture and story about "plain Jane" over the weekend. I plan to keep my eye out for one of those cool-looking mugs. It would look great next to the Henry on my mug tree.

Morning coffee with a mean chihuahua. I have my coffee and usually a pastry and then I always put a treat in the chihuahua's dish so she doesn't bug me for a bite of my pastry. However, as you can see by the expression on her face, she dares anyone to try to take it away. She is really a nice little girl, but, on occasion, develops what we refer to as "chihuahua attitude." She can strike like a snake at times like this.

I brightened it up a bit [/URL]

Here is the way I make a perfect cup of coffee...

I agree, TGR. This is the very same coffee maker we used for about two decades on our overnight boating trips. It makes great coffee, quickly, one cup at a time. Our's is still in the kitchen cupboard, but hardly get's noticed anymore. Maybe it's time to put it back into service.

Had my Henry mug of coffee and my morning yogurt and I just looked out and it looks like rain with the dark sky. Had big plans to get some cars cleaned up today but that may not happen. If it rains it will be back to finishing up the checkering project to at least make something out of the day.

[Sir Henry]

Deadwood I like the lighter picture. It looked like a "dark roast" at first.

[Sir Henry]

Am I the first one up drinking coffee or tea?

[Sir Henry]

Today is going to be the perfect weather for a range visit. Its warm, sunny, and no wind. I'll be taking my two Small Game Carbines and making some noise.

[Deadwood Dutch]

No, I was up at 6:00 and had one cup, a haircut and took the recyclables out to the curb. Now in an hour I go for my annual ultrasound on my carotid artery.

[Deadwood Dutch]

Sounds like a great day for it. Same old story here, rain, and a 50% chance for the rest of the week.

[PT7]

Trust that all will "flow smoothly" for your testing today, Dutch!

Had two Henry mugs of coffee already, and now getting ready for a day away. Plan to stop first at Cabelas to check out the .22LR ammo in stock. Since I've now sold all my .22WMR, I'm working on a supply of the .22LR for my SGC.

Then plan to aisle-shop at a Home Depot and look at what's available to make a small reloading bench to fit somewhere in this apt, or store in the garage and bring out to work it on the patio. Yesterday Rugerfanboy sent me some interesting info on a "portable" reloading bench called thec4m3ron. Having finished reading all that stuff yet, but it's a possibility.

Last activity for the day is some possible time on the shooting range. I have my SP101 .357 revolver, ammo, and targets already in the van....shall see if the weather stays pleasant as it is right now. This day is wedged in between days filled with both moderate and severe thunderstorms.

Have a great Tuesday, Everyone!

Morning/Afternoon all. Have a great rest of the day. Having a coffee in the Roy Rogers mug right now.
