Thread Name: BS: Coffee
Subject: RE: BS: Coffee
The folks who make Green Mountain coffee used to live right next door to my husband's grandfather. They are down to earth, nice folks who frequently shared coffee with their neighbors. I do have to say that that stuff isn't good unless it is FRESH from the pot. In Vermont, they sell it everywhere....lots and lots of gas stations have it, but usually it has been sitting and gets very bitter.

And Martin, I'm like you in that I like to drink my coffee on my way to work or class. I also like to have it on road trips...something nice and warm to sip on. I have a travel mug that goes with me everywhere and even fits in a side pocket of my backpack for school. If you are an on the go coffee drinker like me, check out the Tredeau coffee mugs....they shut and seal...you can tip them upside down, drop it on the sidewalk, knock it over on your desk and it won't spill a drop. They are stainless steel on the inside and keep my coffee HOT for about 3 hours and then very warm for another 3....not bad!!!   Barnes and Noble/Starbucks sells a mug like this too. They run about $20.00 but are worth every single cent as far as I'm concerned. I've had mine now for over 2 years.

I don't drink it in the morning at home unless it is snowy out and I can snuggle up in a blanket with a good book. I also drink it on Saturday afternoons so I have a little perk in me for playing.
