Six cups of coffee seem just about right on these bright sunny mornings....’course, six cups in the coffee-maker equals 3 mugs (or two, if I use the really large mugs) so I’m really only having two or three cups...that works, don’t it?....
On those grey, overcast, yucky days when you c’n work up a shiver just looking out the window I find that eight cups work a lot better at jump-starting the day....except on those really really cold ‘n dreary morns when nuthin’ works....
I like the dark roasts, French ‘n Italian...mostly I stick with Starbucks French Roast ‘cuz that’s what Costco carries....I tried some Peet’s at their new store in O’vale...later Millyrose ordered the same drink at Peet’s
in the Raleys store ‘n tho’ it cost pretty much the same, she said it didn’t taste the same atall....
I blame m’kids for getting me hooked on whole bean coffees....I use’ta drink Yuban, drank it for years ‘n years...bought the 3 pound cans of ground coffee ‘n was happy with it ‘til the kids interfered with the beans ‘n the grinders ‘n all the rest of the amateur barista stuff...well, amateur barista might be a stretch ‘cuz I don’t know much at all about how to brew the ‘perfect’ cup of coffee....I don’t even like espresso or mocha lattes.....I like regular coffee ‘n I like it black...no cream or sugar or other additives....I don’t like flavored coffees ‘n I consider instant coffee t’be a crime against nature....that said, I continue to drink coffee at the various ‘n sundry restaurants even tho’ the best restaurant coffee I’ve had in the last couple years is from McDonalds....I like their coffee...I just don’t eat there....Recently had breakfast (brunch) at Lucky’s Cafe in downtown Sacramento...coffee really sucked but the breakfast was prob’ly the best I’ve even had in a restaurant....’course I’m aging rapidly ‘n my mem’ry sucks bigtime now......
