It makes most other styles taste pretty stale.<br /><br />*LBF: I imagine that your schools taught a little Greek, no? Latin is no fun without a bit of its precursor to get started. Also, I'd try to dry tea leaves at home if I had a good source.<br /><br />*JKG: You're alive! Great to see your moniker again! You were no doubt motorcycling through Chile or some similar adventure? I took the DownEaster up to Portland recently, and thought of you.<br /><br />*BB: There is no coffee I like better than Ethiopian. Boston and DC have sizable Ethiopian populations and the restaurants and coffee are beyond belief. A City Roast of Ethiopian coffee beans is the finest flavor around.Yankee-Whisky-Papahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03700869447555261057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4119187433618815256.post-2838271590008295952011-07-25T23:11:06.290-04:002011-07-25T23:11:06.290-04:00What a great idea - can't wait to give it a ba...What a great idea - can't wait to give it a bash. A dear Ethiopian friend makes it a family affair to roast coffee beans in the backyard with the kids running around and the air smelling heavenly (she adds a wonderful mix of whole spices to the roast). It's a lovely way to while away a sunny afternoon . . . and not a coffee-snob in sight, just lots of giggles and fun!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15636177626451867375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4119187433618815256.post-19307573219864432512011-07-25T21:34:56.206-04:002011-07-25T21:34:56.206-04:00Befitting the appellation "Yankee."Befitting the appellation "Yankee."JKGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13569861165454532541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4119187433618815256.post-21746924754871967512011-07-25T20:17:05.074-04:002011-07-25T20:17:05.074-04:00Very impressive!

But I'll do so admiring those such as you, who have a greater appreciation for such things than I. So, how was it?Reggie Darlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04044215790585354363noreply@blogger.com
