So, I have been "down" with a sinus headache and my dog Lexie has decided to run the woods for a while!  one day, I would like her to figure out that there is "no place like home" BEFORE she gets wet and muddy! 

My daughter takes a large "mommy's coffee" to the Career Center everyday with her, and drinks it when she gets there.  I guess I am becomimg somewhat of a celebrity with the coffee she is bringing in.  One guy actually took it from her and was drinking it.  They are trying to get permission for me to bring it in for all of them to buy so they can enjoy good coffee too!  Nice compliment!  There are many combinations I can make...Wonder if I may have found a "niche" after all!  I do believe our town needs a Starbucks or a coffee shop similar on CR 17..it has everything else on that strip..why not right??

Ok. spent some time with my Son Wes, and his wife Sammi for homemade pizza!  and later, s'mores on the fire!  We all had a good visit. 
Now, I am up on the Labor Day morning, and I am in FULL coffee mode.  Think I will go with some Seattle's Best brewed at a medium strength.  I will add my Hills Bros. Cappuccino mix in English Toffee, top it off with just a little of the White Chocolate Caramel.  Today is definitely an Espresso kind of morning!  I Will totally have to add a couple of shots.  And steaming some milk to cream it up.  How do you like your coffee???  Let me know..I love playing with flavors and trying new blends.

Thanks!

Sooo, for ANYONE that knows even a little about me, knows I DON'T go without my coffee!  Well, today...I DID IT!  I went all day without ONE single solitary sip!  Now, I have had a couple of pepsi's, and 3 wine coolers...and now, have one heck of a headache...I still did it!!  I can promise tomorrow will find me with a cup in my hand..probably pretty darned early too!

We spent some time with some friends today...it was supposed to have been a "pool party" but, the remnants of Hurricane Isaac kind of rained on our parade...but, we all went inside and sang some Karioke and had a really good time...good food, good friends...= good TIMES! 

see you tomorrow.....after my first cup! 

Wow! it has been a while..but, I am back, and I'm not going anywhere anytime soon!  I now have installed,WIFI in my whole house, and I don't have to try to sign on using my phone (bad idea) or using my phone as a "hot spot"...I have to admit this is pretty nice!   

So..I have been off of here for a couple of days.  Seems I may have an early case of  Lyme Disease...Damn Ticks anyways!  We have been doing some extensive clean up of our woods next to our house.  I have lived here almost 25 years, and this is the first tick that has ever bitten me!  Other than being very tired, and feel like every muscle and joint is killing me...I don't feel so bad.  LOL.  21 days of antibiotic is the cure...  Thanks to all of you that are reading my blog and my journey!

Talk to you Later!

I was remembering something from my childhood the other day..my mother used to drink her coffee 3 ways..hot as she could get it..and black as it could be, and to quote her "strong enough to walk". I always swore that I would NEVER drink that horrible stuff! and I didn't...until I was about 42 and walking through Wally World, and unwittingly struck up a relationship with Hills Bros. Cappuccino Mix. It was free right? Smelled too good to be coffee...so I took my first sip, then my first 1 lb container home with me. I was hooked. I experimented with the way THEY said to use it...didn't like that..came up with adding some instant coffee to the cup...mmm better, I think we are onto something. Had to buy a coffee maker!
Now, having to explain all of that to my friends and family who had to ask "when did you start drinking coffee?" was a whole new issue. Noting however, I, to this day, cannot drink it black, but I have discovered SEVERAL ways to enjoy the pleasures of "a cup of coffee"


More to you soon!

Getting to know me!

Hello!  I was trying to come up with "something clever" to open this blog up...however, I am drawing a bit of a blank here.  So, if you have read any of my profile..(does anyone really do this?) you will already know a bit about me.  I have named this "Good to the Last Drop" after a lot of consideration.  I love coffee.  I love playing and mixing different flavors to find out what I can come up with.  I also enjoy using different brewing types of coffee makers, espresso machines vs french presses.  The works.  Come on back to see some of my creations.  I only wish there was "smell-o-vision" on the Internet!

Talk to you again soon!!!
