I can't put my finger on it . I mean , I love the stuff ...but is it just that it gives me the wakes , or that it smells like a kiss from Marilyn Monroe ?
Grind those beans and step aside ----- COFFEE !

There's something about rising between 3 and 4 a.m. daily

that demands that hot cup of joe, as my New York army buddies used to call it, and I'm not talking about Starbucks.
Rather, I make it strong enough to throw up against a wall, then bounce into my oversized mug and ready for my daily excursion onto a porch overlooking the lake. Two or so mugs of that witch's brew, and I'm ready to tackle most anything.
Problem is when company comes to call, no one...and I mean no one will drink it for fear of hardening of the arteries, thus requiring a separate pot for those sissy drinkers. lol

if a spoon won't stand straight up in the middle of the cup, its probably not strong enough!
Had a good friend in NM who used to make "cowboy coffee" by putting two spoonfuls of ground coffee for each cup to be made into a pot of boiling water for about 5 minutes.....you could strip paint off the wall with that stuff...but itd dang sure wake you up

I know exactly what happens if I don't drink it, I'm grumpy, and worst of all at about 2:00 in the afternoon I get a pounding headache if I skip my coffee. The last 6 years I can think of about 5 different times that I didn't drink coffee in the morning, and all 5 times I got a headache that afternoon.

I generally put black w/a little hazelnut creamer into my 16 oz , insulated BubbaMug @ 5:15 every day ...then drink /repeat/drink .
I figure if I value anything more than my morning java , it will show itself eventually .

used to say, "the nectar of the gods in the morning, cold suds in the afternoon...I love life, brothers." I like mine jet black and my Anchor Steams ice cold every day.
