Ben by Daniel Shelton for October 16, 2023

13 scoops and a pot of water later….

Ben, how did you get a weeks chores done by lunch

Another pot of my Nuclear Coffee is born

I found the right sized scoop now I only need to count to one.

“That”, as my dad used to say, “will put hair on your chest.”

Most people buy sugar in 4lb bags.

That’ll put his sunny side up!

That’s what he gets for talking to someone who hasn’t yet had coffee

That’s got to be goooooooood coffee. If it doesn’t float a horseshoe it isn’t strong enough.

COFFEE POLL: how many scoops do you use to make a pot ? I make mine with 7.

Bennie’s Bennies?

That would be me … if I didn’t pour the grounds back into the canister and restart my count.

I’ve often said, how do I make coffee before I’ve had coffee?

It can definitely make your ears ring, not to mention a jolt to the blood pressure.

And THIS is why I set up the coffee maker the night before… because trying to do it without caffeine is a crapshoot at best!

I can’t drink coffee any more due to acid reflux. So now, a sip of coffee gives me a buzz. I used to drink one cup to get out the door, and take one for the road. Then buy one at the mall.
