I'm up early, so good morning folks. Drinking a cup of coffee out of my new French press. Very tasty.

In France, do they just call a French press a "press" instead?
I'm drinking from my dripper.:)

Working on your super commercial foods?

Pizza and beer is all you need.:2c:

Glad you're enjoying it @Redbird11
Not sure about La France but here we call it Plunger Coffee.

I reckon the trick with plungers is to use lots of coffee (about 2 to 3 tablespoons per person) and not let it sit longer than a minute or 2 before you plunge and pour. That way it doesn't get bitter but you still get a nice strong coffee.
Might not be espresso quality but it's quick and easy.

Yeah I let it set for no more than 3 or 4 minutes. It had been awhile since I had a French press. I forgot how much I enjoyed using one.

I broke out one of the classics today. Still one of my favorites and a nice pairing with an ATF ADV :D

Good morning shinies :wub:

Hope you all have a wonderful day evening.....:)

No ill effects from the Pfizer vac so far :)

Dwarving away...comme d'habitude :lol:

Glad to hear this, too. I’m hearing a lot of people saying their arm was sore, only a couple felt sick. I still remember how sore I was after my last tetanus shot so I’m not looking forward to that if it happens lol.
 

Skunk!

I got the first dose of the Pfizer vaccine on the 26th. They came to where I work. I get the 2nd dose on the 16th.

My arm was sore for a few days after the first pfizer shot, and I felt pretty crappy the day after. I'm thinking I probably had some exposure already because I am exposed to contaminated wastewater.:eek:

ATF is fee free now. I’d still pick VCC over ATF though. Only hitch is I can’t print recipes off from the site, unless you know a way? I don’t want to print all the color stuff (especially the black background)
I just lurk mostly on VC. I'm comfortable with elr calculator so haven't bothered to transfer anything over.

My stash is only on ELR. Too much of a hassle to try and keep it up in two places. I’m bad enough about keeping it updated there :blush:

Great job!!! I just read an article that said you're 90% immune three weeks after the first jab :)
