I could write sonnets to the coffee bean :) We start young in my family--littleuns have a glass of milk with a healthy splash of coffee and sugar by the time they're a couple of years old--so I don't remember ever NOT drinking coffee.

*sigh* I get happy even thinking about it :biglove:

Does anyone set their coffee-pot to start brewing about the time you'd be getting up? Mine has that option but I haven't figured out how to do it yet...I think I tried once and tossed my hands in the air. Years ago, my parents had the coffee set to go off at a certain time...I think they plugged it into the stove? I dunno. Gotta get a new pot...have this Mr Coffee thing and you were able to press your cup against this lever thing and the pot had this pump thing inside and it would fill your cup? Don't work no more. First the lever broke...and I managed to snag the broken edge...enough...so I could still use the function...but now the pump don't work...cause the vandals took the handle...wasn't there a too-much-information thread at one time?

Well Flakey...You can still make coffee... there is instant and the kind that comes in a tea bag, or you can boil water in a pan and put a couple of tablespoons into the pan simmer for a few and then pour through a strainer into a cup... Enjoying a cup now as we speak, a cat on my lap, a load of wash in the machine...

We do have a coffee pot with the timer on it. We use it during the week. But not on weekends. I like to sleep in later than 3 am maybe 6 ish. So first one up on weekends makes the coffee.
