I use the Ekobrew brand of reusable k-cups. Naturally, I bought a bunch only to find that they don't make a very strong cup. I noticed that you said yours makes a good cup. Do you know which brand you have (or had, until it conked out)?

Oh K-cups were way too expensive for this girl! I even found the reusable basket went thru coffee like crazy BUT I will say it made a good cup of coffee --till it conked out on me. Stopped heating the water for some reason, makes the noise and then just stops :(

I don't think I'll be going anywhere for a couple days...the roads are all frozen...black ice everywhere....just enough moisture from the dusting of snow to create the perfect situation for it....I think our high temp for the day might be Freezing.....But is OK I am ready to keep warm inside...

Happy Friday to ya, tree crew :)

So...I rebuilt 2 kanger heads with tighter loops and my ohm count came right down to 1.9 and 2.1! Great input from yesterday helped save the day! I'm feeling very accomplished!
awesome! i really dig when i have a vapetastrophe (or lessor complication) i can almost always find an answer here quickly that works, and improves my experience and alleviates my frustrations (many vapestrations!)

3. I put a pork .... in the crockpot last night it smells so good this morning but it has hours to go...
ayyyyy, you are forcing my hand here GMG!
with your causal mentions of delicious slow cooked meats, and the ease in which they are prepared! im missing out on roasts and pulled pork and stews and i dont even want to know what else.
what would be a good first meal to prepare? (if i get a SC this weekend...)

Ahh, expected vapemail puts such a nice feeling on the day...doesn't it?

I make most of my coffee from my Keurig...mostly out of convenience and the fact that I can't really handle more than one cup anymore. I bought a bunch of those reusable filter baskets with high hopes, but I can't seem to get a strong enough cup with them. With real K-cups, I need to make a smaller cup of coffee to get the desired strength, even when I am using bold coffee.
i 'understand' the k-kup phenomenon, but i dont buy into it. unless you get a dual maker, with two types of baskets (what!?) the concept of making ONE#(*$(#&$(#*$! cup of coffee at a time is never something that will interest me.
3 cups = 1 mug.
ain't nobody got time for dat

1- Morning all, going to try and make some pancakes before I head up to the VA hospital in DC. Quite the nightmare heading up there.

hey, if you gotta go to the hospital, might as well have pancakes first.
hope it goes well :)

"Fly-By" - Since I have a reprieve given that they are at the beach right now visiting with the "Scum of the Earth" . . . :evil:

Uncle -- Sounds like my mom - when my phone rings at 6am I get this sense of dread...she always likes to bring up something HUGE at that time. Usually something she thinks I'm not doing "right." I've been told over and over to not answer the phone but **ugh** it's my mother I have no choice. Or so I feel anyway.

Oh NO - "Mother" or Not - NO CALLS BEFORE 10 AM - ANYONE - Period ! ! ! :mad:

AND - As for Letting her tell "Me" that I was "Wrong" for doing something . . . Please . . . Long Story Short . . .
Nope - Na Da - Not Happening . . .

AND - Now since she has been dead for 6 years that is no longer ganna happen either . . . Just Sayin' . . . ;)

Once again, Uncle, it sounds like we share this in common. It seems like my entire family--biological and my family of choice--is comprised of "Morning People." I am definitely (or "defiantly"!) NOT in this category. My SO, who lives in Minnesota (where it is two hours earlier than San Juan) calls me every morning right before he begins work at 7:00 a.m. At least a couple of days each week I'm still too out of it to carry on a conversation with him.

If you find out let me know!! DH does this so I have forbidden him to speak till I've finished at least one cuppa :)
Most days it works...

Both of "You" - SEE POST ABOVE ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ :lol: :lol: :lol:

BTW: "You're" Still Together ? ? ? ? :facepalm: Immediate Divorce ! ! ! Just Sayin' . . . ;)

AND - "GaMntGirl" - Say Nothing, Just Learn How To Do - THE LOOK ! ! !

GO AHEAD SAY ONE MORE WORD

Other Then Good Morning . . . Just Sayin' . . .;)

Running out to pick up a chicken parm sub for lunch! :p

...place called Rotelli's - a chain restaurant, mostly in Florida. The bread they use is fantastic.

:( They're not close enough . . . Really Like Good Italian Bread . . . The only place close enough here is "Primo's" (which is a franchise operation out of Philadelphia) AND - Although they are Expensive Sandwiches/Sub's/Hoagies . . . They do have baked in-house GREAT Crusty Sesame Seed Italian Bread. . .

convenience is nice.
i used to fill my coffee make and prgram it the night before, until a month ago when either myself or the misses neglected to place the carafe and the machine damn near broke. what a mess that was. with thick coffee burned into heating element. very annoying to clean
