Coffee shops historically have been a gathering spot for poets, artists and malcontents seeking a forum to espouse their views; which just happens to be the purpose of this community. So, let's have at it.

Coffee Quip - Wednesday

March 26th 2008 22:54
I love this print.
Greeting’s, the coffee, tea, sweet breads, cookies and tall tales are exotic and for a small stipend, I’ll hook you up. There’s been a serious outbreak of hate lately, and it’s manifested in blogs and on the news, so lemme see if I can find some happy stuff to share.


A man sent a text message to the wrong number and wound up engaged! First the guy Anthony Hubbocks sent a flirty message, which a Michelle Morris mistakenly thought was from a male friend of hers, and in reply fired off a brash response; the rest will be hystery, reports the Daily Mirror.

Spiced coffee anyone? These are for coffee served soul warming hot. Please, add the spices before you brew the coffee.

Fragrant Spiced Coffee

• 3 cups brewed coffee
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup dark brown sugar
• 1/4 tsp cloves
• 1/4 tsp nutmeg
• 1/4 tsp cinnamon
Blend together brown sugar, cloves, nutmeg and cinnamon (use ground spices, not whole). Mix coffee and cream together with the spice mixture. Serve hot.

Mediterranean Coffee

• 3 tbs ground coffee (coarse)
• 2 tsp sugar
• 1 tsp cinnamon
• 1 tsp cocoa powder
• 1 tsp anise seed (whole)

• Pinch of dried orange peel pieces
Combine all the ingredients, and brew by your favorite method. Using a French press or a plunger pot is the traditional brewing style for this particular coffee recipe.

Sweet Fennel Coffee

• 3 tbs ground coffee
• 2 cinnamon sticks, broken
• 6 whole fennel seeds, crushed
• 1 tbs brown sugar
Mix coffee and spices, and brew by your preferred method. Add the sugar to your finished cup for that sweet touch.

Have a great day.

Some good ideas here, TL. Will definitely have to try fennel coffee one day - that's the first time I've heard of it and I'm a coffee lover!
