The Coffee House

[Gary A.]

Buenos Dias Coffee Hosers. 59F right now at 6:53 a.m. It may reach the mid 60's today. Rain is a-coming. You can feel it, the air is heavy. I gotta dig a hole approximately 3'x2'x3' for the new skimmer. I think I wait until after the rain. Colombian Supremo today, rich and flavorful, like a good enchilada.

I've been reading all this stuff about wifi and remotely shooting from your computer and stuff. My Fuji cameras have all that capabilities, I even downloaded the wifi Fuji iPhone app, but I haven't synced anything. This morning it just dawned on me that with my recent film acquisition, I'm going the opposite direction ... I am simplifying my photography. It feels good. (But I did just order a scanner.)

be nice to remote shoot from your phone, especially on long shutters in winter you can sit in your car where it is warm and let the camera and tripod bare the cold.

oh wait, you don't have such concerns i forgot......lol

.................. I have a headache already, but then I know the cure for that - Advil and COFFEE. I'd better go make some.

Mine's better................ Percocet and a cold beer!!

Just finished my first of three cups of Maxwell House Colombian, when finished with the coffee who knows what I will do today.

Still learning how to be retired.

I hear you, and suffer right along with you!!

Made myself a ghetto mocha today. Was actually pretty good, surprisingly.

What is a ghetto mocha?

I had to look it up on Urban Dictionary.............

ghetto mocha
Powdered hot cocoa mix added to drip (or sometimes even instant) coffee.

Can be made for free in many company breakrooms.
Forget Starbucks, I'm going to go make a ghetto mocha!

About a decade ago, I decided to quit putting crap into my life and body. I'll pass on a ghetto mocha.

Is it the coffee or the cocoa mix you object to? Or both?

 

[snowbear121 53]

I have used the General Foods "International" instant coffee as creamer in real coffee.

 

[KenC]

I don't put creamer in real (brewed) coffee, but I've put Ovaltine, cocoa mixes and even just straight cocoa powder into instant coffee. I didn't know until now that many others have done it or that anyone named it.

 

[snowbear121 53]

If I'm in a real hurry in the morning, I'll just take a spoon of instant coffee crystals and wash them down with a Mountain Dew . . . instant buzz.
