Coffee

ah, you technologic ones :D

i've seen those in england, i dont know anyone who has that here... we like oldfashioned ones :)

that's almost identical to the ones we have here.
mine has a stainless steel carafe instead of a glass pot, that's really the only difference.
oh, and they run anywhere from about 20.00 at WalMart to 250.00 (cdn) at the finer kitchen shops. of course, there are many different features you can get: timers, so the coffee is brewed right when you get up, steamers for making cappucinos etc.

I miss the electric pitcher things they have in the UK. I don't know what they're called, but there was one in every hotel room and they were really handy. You fill this big plastic pitcher with water and plug in the cord and it boils the water without a stove, for tea.

oh you do not have it where you live? It is really useful, especially in the office. you know those day, it is raining hard, you feel really bad, without energy and gray and then you use this, makes a coffe or herbal tea (mint) and suddenly life is fine ;)

Salam eva!
you know i began to have a cup of coffee every morning at 11. It's my coffee time. Before I had it just when I was offered. Sometimes I want more but can stop myself on time thinking that if not then I'll end up as eva: 5 litres a day, oh sorry I confused it with your tea, 2 litres a day :D

hi, is salam the same as salam alejkum, alejkum salam? or is it just for movies?

for coffee, well I bought myself a coffee that is weaker, so I hope I am saving myself. and I drink just 4 per day of that weak one. is it ok like this? I do not think so, but better for sure.
I drink coffee when I wake up, on my way to bathroom and start the coffee maker and when I am out my coffee is ready ;) and then I have few during day. But I started to drink also herbal tea, do not want to kill myself.
It is great that I serve as your example... even as a bad one ... btw how are you? I was not very often here last few weeks, it will be sooner now... hopefully.

Hi Eva, Salam is greeting, short form of salam aleykum. We use Salam most. Aleyka salam is answer the greeting.

Thanks, eva. I'm also not very often here last weeks. To stay in city in these hot days is impossible.

yes I know what you mean. It is horribly hot, so hot that I do not like my coffee so much hihi luckily last three days were rather cold, so I could enjoy it... any plans for holidays besides coffee ? :D

speaking of coffe, i just got this spam ads in my email.."gevalia kafe..", which claimed has given extraordinarily pleasure for over 150 years..

funny, i never heard of it..not even once
