More on coffee

I realized I equated my coffee drank at home with coffee had out. I don’t have an exact record of all the espressos I’ve had out, so it’s not an exact comparison. Still, the price difference astounds me. Out an espresso is 1.75$, which is about 0.10-0.19$ worth of coffee if purchased from a supplier and prepared at home. So in about 500 espressos a home machine would have paid...

nostrich: Here’s something: Penne. I cooked a dinner of pasta with pepperoni, peppers, tomato, paprika, and parsley last night. It was incredible. Even Heather liked it, and you know women are when men cook. But we had a brief disagreement about the pronunciation of “Penne” and it turns out we were both wrong.
