They make coffee "tea bags," too.

Yeah. She said she'd get me some of those, but ick. I'll survive. Really. I shouldn't be complaining. I mean, great vacation on beautiful island. Maybe I won't need coffee.

ION, apparently 16 years is not enough time passed for a father to hear about his daughter's first kiss. I think he's wondering if this vacation is such a good idea.

It is unpossible to go 17 days without coffee

I drink tea. Coffee can upset my tummy and make me too wired. So I probably have it once or twice a month (when I have a big breakfast).

I vote french press. It is a nice gift for a hostess - it takes up very little room in the cupboard and is there when the next coffee addict comes to visit.

After having brunch in SF with a bunch of the bayareaistas, I wrote about finding this board in my blog

nothing earthshattering, and stuff we agree on.

I drink tea too, but I second the idea of a french press if you want to have coffee. You can get one for under $20.

Health~ma to your niece, Ginger.

I have one of these.

Earlier I was in Trader Joes and "Bennie and the Jets" came on and I swear half the store was going, ssssssssssssssss

Now I have a home made bloody mary with a pickled asparagus. Plus I already have a batch of beans (black-eyed peas included) made so I don't have to worry about cooking on the first.

Am I the only 'freak' that doesn't drink coffee?

No. I have never met a coffee I liked.

Hence my lack of knowledge that "coffee bags" are "ick."

I don't drink coffee! I'm a tea girl all the way.

Hugs and ~ma all around, since I've been mostly absent since before Christmas and I haven't even skimmed, aside from the last few posts.

And extra special health~ma for your niece, Ginger. Sometimes it *is* lupus, but fingers crossed it's not.

I rarely ever drink coffee. I can't get through a day without at least 1 cup of tea.

I've had no tea today. Perhaps that's why my head hurts.
