A wee measuring scoop.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Grind the right amount, dump from grinder bin into filter?
Exactly!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
how do you get the ground coffee into the filtery thing in the first place?
Coffee grinder and a brush. I still use a spoon to mix the creamer in, though.

I am not spoon avoidant. I just run out of spoons before the other utensiles. I use a coffee scoop for measuring coffee.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Hey, I'm not saying you have to have matching flatware to be an adult, but it's part of how I define adulthood for me. My DH was appalled that I was in my 30s and the only sound system I had was a beat-up boombox when we met. What trappings define adulthood for you guys?

I think everyone in Natter should mail a spoon to Jesse, for Christmas/Hanukkah/Festivus/Solstice/New Year/winter-holiday-of-choice.
I think Tom needs forks more.
A wee measuring scoop.
Another thing to wash! I mean, with my spoon I measure the coffee, stir in the sugar and then make pretty galaxies with the cream. It's useful!

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
OK, here's my question, all you spoon-avoidants: how do you get the ground coffee into the filtery thing in the first place?
Measuring scoop, which goes back into the bag o' beans, thus avoiding the whole "washing" problem.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb
set my grandparents got in sweden for my parents, an inexpensive everyday set. But the tines are thinner and longer than usual, and the balance on the knives is perfect
I received a really wonderful set of silverware as a wedding present from a local store that specializes in Scandinavian wares. I looked online to see if they had a catalog, but no luck.
