Now-I'd never used a French press and wouldn't know what one was if it wasn't for the internets. Anyhow-I picked up some new coffee-as opposed to the old coffee that I have here because I hardly ever use it. I googled French press-so I could learn how to use it. Well-first of all-I bought the wrong kind of coffee. The internets says you should buy coarsely ground coffee-I bought finely ground. It's because you'll get more sediment-and I got a lot of sediment, but it didn't really bother me. The taste was better than when I make it with a coffee pot-but still not quite like Starbucks. But, oh boy-I gots meself a little caffeine buzz. I'm a tea drinker at heart, so I probably won't use it much-but it's nice to know that it's there and also-it's pretty to look at. :)
***The internets also says that coffee from a French press can raise your bad cholesterol, because it doesn't filter the oils like a paper filter does-or something.*** |

I'm glad you explained what a french press was - I'm not a coffee drinker either, so I had no idea. Very cute though! Ahh, spring cleaning! The cedar in my living room needs washed - 1/2 of the walls are "slanted" and the dust settles in the grooves. I hate it! Mae is very pretty - love the pastels
Your house looks beautiful! I love looking at your pretties. Your french press is adorable! I didn't know what it was but it is cute and I love coffee so how fun. Could you make tea with it since you love tea. I have bought loose tea before. Love your newest rug!! Would I be a pest if I asked for another. I would gladly exchange for something I have or some cash... I would like one for our camp porch. I would like a very busy one like the one by my laundry because it will have a lot of foot traffic. Also, I will have some "Holly" at camp.
I think Mae is my most favorite one ever!!!! Beautiful Holly!
I love Rocco. You better go mess things up for that dog again. He needs a good hiding place (from what, no one knows -- but him).
