The Coffee House

Oh my god, hosers, hosers, HOSERS.

Pivot tables. My world has been thoroughly rocked. I'm geeking hard right now.
I create them frequently. They are very useful.

Buenas Dias Coffee Hosers. Mary Lou, Cook and Gary are in Buellton a small city next to Solvang. The hotel offers a breakfast buffet ... with a mechanical automatic pancake maker. Press a button and in two minutes it squeezes two pancakes out of its backside.

Lol ... Gary has so much vino ... he will be set up for the rest of the year. Dunno if any of youse have seen the movie Sideways, but Mary Lou is scheduling some stops based on the movie.

(Sideways is an indie movie based in the Santa Ynez wine country.

Somehow I just do not envision the ability to "poop pancakes" as a selling feature for this machine. When we were at Disney a few years ago the first time down in Orlando we stayed at the Marriott resort. They too had the breakfast buffet but instead of pancakes they had several Mickey Mouse head shaped Belgian waffle makers and cups of premeasured waffle batter. In two minutes you could have a Mickey Mouse waffle for breakfast.
 
I like waffles
I do too, but not at the price Disney wanted for the Mickey head Belgian waffle maker. It was the Waring professional grade waffle maker in the Mickey head design. My wife wanted one until she saw the $300.00 price tag. We bought the one I linked to for about $100 at the time.

We use it at least 3 or 4 times a month. All the kids and the in-laws always want waffles for breakfast when they are here. It makes perfect waffles every time. Sadly you can't get the one I linked to any longer except at some ridiculous price.

No return on investment with that device.

Not now at that 300+ price, but we have had the one we bought for 11 years now and it has been used thousands of times while costing us 1/3 of the cost. Actually it was 20% less than that 1/3 price as B,B,&B always has 20% off coupons.

It will make 30 waffles and hour so it is quite handy when feeding 8-10 people. We just set it up on the sideboard in the dining room and people can have at it. I think the price spiked when it was featured on several cooking channel and food network shows.
 
I used part of my first paycheck to get someone special, something special.

I got myself a little something, too:
"Petrol" and "Pacific" - this year's limited editions.

I've decided to concentrate collecting only a few lines of pen - the less expensive Lamys and a few Sheaffers, though I will occasionally try to pick up something that just appeals to me.
