I hate mayonaise too. And a sandwich ain't a sandwich without mustard. It's also only half a sandwich if it doesn't have jalapeños.

 

Never been a fan of jalapeños either. :)

 

Well, okay that isn't entirely true. I like them if they've been roasted. Otherwise I just don't like the flavor. Habeñeros on the other hand, those are quite nice. :)

Speaking of coffee' date=' you ever seen/tried using an Aeropress? I picked one up recently and it makes some seriously good coffee. We have like 5 other ways of making coffee at home, and since I got the Aeropress I've barely used any of them. Invented by the guy who came up with the Aerobie flying disk. :)

 

Looks intriguing. I threw it on the wish list which is the "Do I have some discretionary income?" list.

I'm with you. Habeñeros have a much more interesting flavor.

When I was regularly going to "A Taste of Colorado" (i.e. when I still lived in Denver) there was a guy who had a booth with a wide variety of different kinds of beef jerky. I always made sure I got some of his habeñero stuff. Can't eat much at a time, but VERY tasty. :)

 

I need to pick up some fresh ones one of these days and see about doing some cooking with 'em. Though I'd be eating anything I made myself as Keri, while not actually a total spice wimp, doesn't like hot food nearly as much as I do.

Unlike other methods of brewing a better cuppa I've seen, the product tastes like very good coffee. Rather than tasting like a nice coffee flavored beverage. :)

There's s neat range of 3-digit ALT characters available from 128 to 168.

 

I'd like to see an Ægis cruiser some day. ;)

I usually just use our Mr. Coffee for the morning coffee. Jenn gets up about three hours before me and despite her culinary training, can't make coffee by any method. We think it's a genetic block, her dad makes the worst coffee ever. I've watched him use the same method and ingredients I do, and his tastes like bilge water. So Mr. Coffee is set so she just turns it on when she gets up. I then reheat some later and if I need more, I use the french press. Which I think today will require.

I can't drink iced coffee either, unless it's so heavily doped with other stuff that the coffee is a side additive, not the drink. If conditions are too hot for Real Coffee, I'll take my caffeine in a cold carbonated solution.

Picked up S.M. Sterling's Dies the Fire a couple of days ago.

 

What does it say about your life when you buy a Post Apocalypse novel and recognize one of the main characters as a fictionalized version of one of your old friends?

That the West Coast Pagans all know each other? ^^
