G'day all!
Macchiato and a pfeffernüsse biscuit today.
 
Good morning fellers! Feeling good and great, also. This morning I fixed a cup of Forecast beans(the ones from Sprouts) using the keurig and drank black. I’ll make a pot of the Mexican Mocha beans from Cafe Brazil when family wakes up because momma loves those beans! Wishing you all a special and awesome day, and if there’s some bumps in the road no need to worry just make sure your shocks are up to standard. Peace 🕊️

Good morning, coffee crew.

Mad Priest Sloth Dispelling. French press. Black.

A little cooler in Music City today with a high around 58°. An overcast day ahead. In the wee hours of the morning we had some strong winds and heavy rain roll through here. It woke me up several times. Feeling pretty tired at the moment. Just a few creative things to do today that shouldn't take more than an hour or two. Low and slow oven spare ribs with homemade fried apples and pinto beans will be dinner this evening.

Have a blessed one, crew.

I'm drinking 6-cups of Bones Sinn-O-Bun, in my 30-oz Yeti tumbler this morning folks. :cuppa:

What a boring week of rain, makes me depressed! On the plus side however, I decided to vacuum my house. I picked up a good bit of junk, you'd be amazed how much stuff you find in shag carpeting! Anything I can do to improve my allergies.

Dirt Devil stopped selling this model right after I bought one of the last ones on Amazon. Then conveniently, they came out with a newer model of the same sort of type, canister vac with cyclone turbo style suction, with motorized floor tool, but jacked up the price by 200 dollars. Typical, like most non-regulated companies do these days.

I don't remember if I had posted this previously, my memory is a blur. In another effort to also help control my allergies, keep dust, pollen, and household bad smells down, I also purchased a new air filtration machine, a Winix 5500-2, its a powerful unit, seems to work great, and I am loving it!

 
Morning all,

Today is a cold brew and sorting through some Christmas items. We have several Christmas village homes and some of the cords are aging out and need replaced. It’s hard to believe but some of the original villages pieces are over 40 years old. Along with cords all incandescent bulbs are going to be replaced with leds.

Morning all,

Today is a cold brew and sorting through some Christmas items. We have several Christmas village homes and some of the cords are aging out and need replaced. It’s hard to believe but some of the original villages pieces are over 40 years old. Along with cords all incandescent bulbs are going to be replaced with leds.

The modern standard for several years now, have been LED's for Christmas lights. Not only do you not have to worry about blown out bulbs after 1 to 2 years of usage, and having to hunt down new incandescent bulbs for your light string, but you also use far less power, running modern LED's. I've heard the countless story from power companies complaining around Christmas time, because they have to bolster the power grid, to handle the load of everybody at once, running their Christmas lights. Yeah well, if everybody in the nation ran LED Christmas lights, you wouldn't have near the strain on the power grid as before, thats a fact.

I'm not really surprised regarding how old some of your Christmas displays are. I still have some old family Christmas decorations, that date to 40 to 60 years old. Thing is, all of my family are gone, except one sibling, so there is no point in stringing up Christmas lights, or setting up a big tree, its all pointless. But I do have 1 micro-fiber mini Christmas tree, which I typically ran, but the hologen bulb that produces the light blew out, and I never got it replaced.

So now days, I simply have RGB light bulbs in tower lamp fixtures, and I set one lamp to green, and the other lamp to red, and there's your Christmas colors for the season lol. The biggest thing that bother's me about Christmas related equipment, is it never lasts. You get a few years out of them, and then they just die, like everything else. But i will say, those new LED Christmas lights, as long as you don't buy bottom dollar lights, and you actually spend a good 60 bucks or so, you can get some quality strings thats going to last.

Enjoy your light conversion project. I am just glad I don't have to do it lol.
 
Today is my tea day so I will post this beautiful ancient "ATOMIC " espresso maker ....

Good morning, coffee crew.

Mad Priest Dark Night of the Soul. French press. Black.

It looks like a cloudy day ahead with a high around 57° for Music City. About 6 hours of sleep last night. I went with the Chamomile tea with Passion Flower extract before bed. Not much going on today other than having lunch with a friend. I have a 2:30-5:30 pm session at my studio tomorrow.

Happy Friday, my friends.
 
How’s things a going, all of you kind souls? It’s me and i be, so therefore I am. Feeling rested and I’ve been tested, don’t know if I passed, but life goes on anyway as eternity lasts. This morning I had one cup of Mexican Mocha beans brewed in the keurig and drank black. Wishing only happiness and that you all, always have the grace of hope. Peace 🕊️
 
2 shot oat milk cortado
Avalanche roast from Telluride Coffee
California Farms Organic Oat barista blend

I usually add 2oz water to my cortado, to thin the oat milk. This is new oat milk for me. I prefer the Sown oat milk (unsweetened) from Whole Foods, but it isn’t always available. This Califa is reasonable. Not too thin, but next cup, no extra water.

I like Oatly, too, but they don’t sell organic in the US. I don’t know how people drink the sweetened creamers, sooo syrupy. Blah! But I am a coffee plus cream person and no sugar unless I am drinking the inferior coffee like thing they have at work.

G'day all!
An espresso with a demitasse spoon of brandy to rinse and an pfeffernusse or two on the side for me today.


Beautiful machine! My grandmother had one and my uncle managed to save it when clearing their house, I don't think it's functional though.
The internals are fairly simple , it may just need a good cleaning and if it has a gasket replace it with a modern silicone gasket .
