Parked Here for the Night

'olhand and I know what we like

 

I've said it before, I'll say it again .... my Made In America GE coffee perk just turned 49 years old and still makes the best cup of coffee !

 

Our old stovetop percolator gave up the ghost a couple of years ago, so we purchased a small Black & Decker drip coffeemaker. It does a pretty good job, but there are times I miss the stovetop pot.

We also had a small burr grinder for a while, but it quit working after only a couple of years. Sometimes I'd run up to the roasterie, get fresh roasted beans, and when ground fresh right before brewing? It's really rich and smooth...

Unfortunately, however, I can't afford to be a coffee snob... so we just drink the ground stuff from Aldi's most of the time. It's coffee.


As for fast-food type coffee? I can't stand Starbucks. Had one cup years ago and it was the bitterest coffee I ever drank. But I love Wawa coffee...

 

The reason most like Starbucks and such is they were never fed dirt as a kid. Or had to sample a little as a side effect of the job.

 

THANK YOU VERY MUCH MR. RED for all the info!! Will definitely check that out...

And YES... You are ABSOLUTELY CORRECT sir.... Despite of all the hassles, expenses, loss of income, back hurts, etc, etc... I am VERY FORTUNATE to be able to do this trip... Dad is sooo very anxious to see me again and at the "end", I will be very thankful I went...

 

You are RIGHT too!!! I'll need to go back in the truck and to my "regular" truck driving life on the road here to be able to rest again... And I am NOT kidding...

 

Pete likes to "pick" on me... but there's some truth to what he "says"... sometimes...

 

Have a great trip Rocks, enjoy your time with your dad, I lost mine in1990 & I miss him every day .

 

That IS also ABSOLUTELY CORRECT MR. RED!!!



Brazilian coffee is not VERY strong but also one of the BEST tasting coffees in the world... that's what folks say...
I see Pilot advertising they are selling Brazilian coffee... not sure how good the quality of that coffee really is... I don't drink coffee...

 

Product of India, huh? I heard coffee from some places in Africa is very good too...
