Any Coffee Lovers???

I was at the supermarket just now and saw they had Dunkin' Donuts coffee and LaVazza. I've never tried DD's coffee (but I love their buttercreme filled donuts) so I got 12oz of that. I'm going to the corner Tim Horton's tomorrow morning and try their fresh [20 min guaranteed] coffee. Maybe a breakfast wrap too, or whatever they have.

On to Crosby's. They have a web site, and a string of stores/gas & go's here in WNY. Oddly, their web site lists Subway and Tim Horton's ads.

I emailed them about their cappuccino and if it is available for purchase. I doubt they do, and even if they did, I don't think my present coffeemaker would process it.

I'll pick up a package of the LaVazza tomorrow too. I'm tired of ho-hum coffee.

I was number 80 in the 1969 draft lottery. I enlisted in the Corps in Dec and got my notification to report while I was in boot camp. We had coffee all through my 17 years in the military, and mostly it was good, as far as I can remember. I know we had C-Rat coffee quite often. Must have been good stuff, I don't recall ever throwing any out...

"Gunny, my first cig was one of my dad's Luckies, out behind the lumber pile when I was ! 5 or 6 years old. LS/MFT! My brother and I were busted in the process by the next-door neighbor."

you remember what LS/MFT stands for...as well as all the "dirty" versions!

1) Loose Straps Make Floppy...well, you get the idea.

Dave, I see the Cisco tractor-trailers drive by every day. I have no problem with having low-life tastes; I consider myself lucky to taste anything at all.

Which brings me to an off-topic comment...Cable had a hour on Modern Marvels yesterday about soft drinks. Coke, Pepsi, and Dr Pepper were the top three, no surprise...But that they each have 1.7oz of sugar in each 12oz can was quite surprising to me...

I drink 16oz of coffee in the morning [my entire breakfast], a can of Pepsi with lunch, and another can with dinner...Now, I have three level teaspoons of sugar in my coffee, so I'm trying to convert that to ounces...

(I also love MacDonald's french fries, but anything else there, not so much...)
