OREO COOKIES FOR YOUR COFFEE BREAK

There are few people in America old enough to remember the days before the Oreo cookie. As a kid I loved them. We do not eat many these days because the ingredients on the label reads like a short novel, when it should have a maximum of seven ingredients.

But, you may still indulge Oreo cookies, and if you do you must wonder if there is a high tech way to open and separate the two halves of an Oreo. Kids of all ages have been trying to solve this issue forever. I certainly did my own research by opening just about every Oreo I ever ate. My Mom would laugh at me, but all discoveries come with sacrifices and misunderstanding by the masses.

So, finally, a man has invented an Oreo gun which separates the two halves. 

Thus..........



Only at this blog do we bring you the latest technology in coffee drinking and coffee break culture.

SOME COFFEE BREAK GENTLENESS

Here is something happy from Europe. I have traveled the trams of Amsterdam. They are so small, and they wander all about in traffic as if the rails move around to the tram can get through. We have no trams in the USA, which is sad. They let you almost touch the scenery as you pass it.

So, here is a bus driver on his way to work in Germany or The Netherlands, can't figure out which.

USED COFFEE FOR YOUR GARDEN

I am not promoting rabid recycling, but I know this is a good idea. 


Barracuda Coffee in Richland, Washington is recycling their coffee grounds. I know. You are wondering if they are trying to make more coffee with used grounds, right? Well, that is treason to a coffee drinker.

No, they are giving the coffee grounds to their customers to use on their gardens. Coffee grounds are probably the best way to get rid of pill bugs (rolly polly bugs). It sure works for us in the Hill Country of Texas.

You can also use unused coffee that got old and tasteless, or coffee being sold cheap because it is old.


The only down side is that as you accumulate the used grounds they end up sitting in some container destroying the ambiance of your home.


Cold coffee that might be thrown out can also be put on plants to acidify the soil. This is usually only important if you live in the Southwest of the USA.

STARBUCKS LOWERING THE STANDARD

Boozers do not have the same level of articulation when they stand with one foot on the brass rail, and their elbow on the bar. Coffee has always, since hundreds of years ago in Europe, been the beverage of high thoughts and quiet conversation.


So, get out your happy manual so you can roar and keep up with the inebriated conversation, at least if you are addicted to Starbucks.

HOT BLACK COFFEE

I will soon be sharing my zeal for the blessed brew. I roast my own coffee from green beans, and I have lived in the country where coffee was first discovered, Ethiopia.


So, bookmark this page, and you should soon see some curious information on Coffee.
