This afternoon I went to the supermarket to buy onions. I ended up buying a lot of stuff I didn't really need and I forgot the onions. ::)

What should I buy... :chin:

:oooh-me!:
Buy a nice dress and a pair of high heels, just for the heck of it.  :grin:

Heheh! I like your suggestion, but if you saw me trying to walk in high heels you wouldn't suggest a disaster waiting to happen. :grin:

:grin:
But they're so sexy...See?

Don't ask me. I drink a lot of coffee but have never used a French press.

I find it best to grind the coffee beans quite coarsely when using a French press.

Grind the coffee?

Now I have to go buy garlic and come back with a coffee grinder to use my French press?

Yes, that's what it takes if you want the best taste.

This coffee Philistine drinks instant coffee in the morning because he can't be bothered to do all the preparations that the big coffee pot requires. The little 4 cup Mr Coffee device went toes up a few weeks ago.  :eyebrow:

Now I have to go buy carrots and come back with coffee to grind in my coffee grinder to use my French press.
