coffee

[BishyBarneyBee]

just had some free samples of kenco instant through the door and it is horrible - tastes like bad breath.

How do you do your coffee?

we have a stove top espresso thing and I have about 3 cups a day - makes me fly!

since drinking 'proper' coffee I hate instant.

I buy Lavazza. Best coffee I ever had was in Spain.

it is proper to drink milk in tea

a million gazillion indians cant be wrong

one-cup drip not bad

get paper filters and FINE GROUND coffee
plastic filter + coarse coffee = ick

hold on

isnt smeg a bit...

well...

common

Ah no. Ponciana's fridge is one of those American ones which are destroying the ozone, with freezer to one side, and that nifty thing which makes cold water, and DIFFERENT SHAPED ice cubes.

ghosty - it stinks like a bonfire lapsang

milk in tea is wrong IMO and that is all that counts.

enid
in that case is it proper also to add four sugars and a good slug of condensed milk then boil for another 5min?

(I love it but it is not Tea As We Know It)

americn coffee is crap - spanish is best I have had but obv. have not been everywhere in teh world.

In high street costa is shit, starbucks okay and nero best.

Tea - I like Lapsang. Is that weird? Is very satisfying. Also like Fennel tea as only vaguely herbal one that actually tastes of something.

strong tea with milk and one sugar is the drink of goddesses

black tea is for weight obsessives and people who have no joy in life

Yes Nero is best Bish, I agree. Unfussy proper strong coffee at Nero - and a loyalty card.

fennel tea is awful - tastes like fengreek and savoury - like liquorice gravy.

black tea is surely joyful. Phillip Pullman drinks it donnachaknow.

What is fengeek? Might I like that too?

I used to hate tea until I fainted when pregnant with dd1

dh (white with fright) made me a cup with a piece of buttery toast and I think I now associate it with comfort

awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww [vomit]

sweet tea is the drink of the people

it is ALLOWED to be common

coffee breath does smell like bad breath - yuk!
I loathe coffee, I don't see it as a thirst quencher at all.

I love my tea, but none of your fancy rubbish - Earl Grey is like bland cardboard.
