Not my usual toasted "English" muffin. I bought some of those frozen
biscuits; we'll see how they are. I'm going to pop a couple of those in
the
oven. Meanwhile I'll pan fry 3 or 4 pork sausage links. And I'll cook a
couple of eggs, over medium (pork fat rules!). That will be pretty much
all
I eat until this evening, possibly even all I eat today. MMM MMM Good!

Breakfasst here was an old St. Louis favorite ------------- SLINGER

2 eggs as you like them (I like them scrambled)
1 cheeseburger patty (just meat with a slice of cheese, no bun)
fried potatoes
smothered in chili
diced onion and grated cheddar top it off

Oh, don't want to forget the buttered toast and Colombian coffee

with raspberry jam and a latte.

Would you please explain to me a latte? Isn't that just coffee with a lot
of cream (and possibly sugar) foam on top?

Hmmm, so Espresso is what, really dark coffee? I just drink regular coffee,
you see. I don't know Lattes from Espresso from Cappuccino from whatever.
Just plain black coffee.

No surprise there. This is how you should answer all your posts.

Google can be your friend. But you have to know how to use it

In your small little world, maybe. You should really get out more. You
might learn something.

Instant, too, I bet. And cheap.

Spend a little money on something good for a change. Use your own advise
and give up your internet connection if you must, but get out in the real
world (the 21st century, not the 1800's) and learn to live.

you see. I don't know

Ahhh. You are finally "getting it"

There may be help for the world. If the famous "Jill McQuown" has finally
admitted that she doesn't know something, can real World Peace be that far
behind???

Just for the record: It's not me!

I always post from my SBC or RoadRunner accounts :-)

Good grief, 5:42 AM? That's night time for me, especially on Saturday.

I just got up, so it's so far been a can of Diet Mountain Dew.

LOL!!!!!
I just posted somethiong similar. And my initials are S.W. too.

It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
It's a small, small world

It's a world of laughter
A world of tears
It's a world of hopes
And a world of fears
There's so much that we share
That it's time we're aware
It's a small world after all

There is just one moon
And one golden sun
And a smile means
Friendship to ev'ryone
Though the mountains divide
And the oceans are wide
It's a small world after all

It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
It's a small, small world

I'm kinda infamous for changing my name when I respond to Jill to
avoid her killfile. But when I do, I always sign my initials -sw

And even when I do sign my initials, she still doesn't figure out
that's it's me because she's too busy composing her replies
before reading the posts.

See the recent "Candy Thermometer" thread for an example :-)

Very strong Italian style coffe. A latte to me is very similar to café
au lait.

Steve, you're dear to my heart. I've got several pounds of Stockholm Roast
coffee in the cupboard and Popoyan Columbian Roast from when I subscribed to
Gevalia Kafe and had various coffees from around the world delivered. I
still drink it black so I have no clue about Lattes, Cappuccino, whatever.
Real women drink coffee straight. 🙂

Espresso is not just really dark coffee. It is a different process for
making coffee which makes a much better strong coffee than just making
strong drip or perked coffee.

I am not exactly sure the exact difference between latte and cappuccino
either. One recipe describes cappuccino as equal parts of espresso and
steamed milk and latte as espresso with plenty of steamed milk, so I don't
know if that means half, more than half, or less than half. Latte is
easier to spell :-)

I noticed that. I just have to wonder, though. Is Jill really this dumb,
or is it just an act for the newsgroup? I wouldn't think anyone could be so
dumb.
Maybe *I* need to get out more?

Do you always have coffee the same way? If I make coffee with the drip
machine or my French press or at a coffee shop I almost always have it
black. If it is in a restaurant and the coffee is not very good I may add
a little cream and sugar. I sometimes have an espresso straight up,
sometimes with just a little sugar.... just a little. Occasionally I may
add a dash of rum or whiskey to my coffee. Real people like a little
variety. :-)

Restaurant coffee is a different story. Sometimes it's so bad it requires
doctoring. I'll add cream. I rarely add sweetener but if I do it's real
sugar, none of that artificial [censored].
