Coffee, blessed coffee - from my new coffee maker! Mine got broke when I moved six mos. ago and I finally got it replaced so now I can have coffee at home again. Oh, also some sourdough toast & orange marmalade.

Alternate coffee solutions:

Put coffeegrounds into a cup and pour on boiling water, wait a moment, then stir. Don't drink all the way to the bottom of the cup. (from my Polish friend, Katie)

Put a coffee filter into a plastic flowerpot (the kind with holes at the bottom), put the flowerpot onto a teapot, pout boiling water, little by little, onto the grounds, let drip. (from my own kitchen, at times)

Boil a small bit of water with a spoonful of coffeegrounds and one of sugar (preferably in a little beaked pot with a long handle), pour into small cups and serve with icy-cold glasses of water. (memories of a Cypriot holiday)

The same as number two on the list, but using a papertowel or piece of tshirt, for when you have no filters available. (from my alcoholic friend, Lionel)

Buy instant. (from my poor friend, Thersea, who gets her instant coffee from the foodbank)

Going to have to pass on the above, well meant suggestions.

Oh, yeah, I know...all those Senseo and Nescafé machine things...ll that fancy coffeeshop stuff.

Last summer, my family and I worked at the local campground. Dutch families, mostly. Love their coffee.

The owner was pulling out her hair, wondering what the heck was wrong with the electrical outlets on the tentsites...the entire campground kept going off when the electricity would snap. We finally figured out that camping has gone high-tech...each tent had a fancy electric coffee machine. And, as the Dutch drink coffee both in the morning and before going to bed....

We will be having my homemade bacon for breakfast in the morning.

Kill pig, cut sides off, put into salt, hang to dry, eat after one month.

Kona coffee and scrambled egg on toast. My friend in Ireland is undergoing a serious operation this morning and goes to the theatre at 8.30 a.m. So I am keeping alert for phone calls.

I dunno, Barry...after drinking this Frech stuff for a quarter century, I find the Kona stuff lacking (makes me feel almost traitorious, just saying this).
