Anyway, did anyone actually have coffee today?
I haven't touched caffeine yet. I just cracked open an Austrian beer with a green label. 🤦
In this heat, it’s the only thing keeping me sane.
I saw some fancy stuff at Target earlier, but honestly, I've got plenty of coffee at home.
I'll just brew my own without all the extra nonsense.

And that's about ten times I've thought it.😁

Personally, I couldn't care less about apartments in New York City or any other overpriced hub. Just give me the countryside.😉

Drew Lee9, did you actually grow up out in the sticks?
Or are you living 🤔

I'm in the city (Seattle), though I'd much rather be out in the country.😉

hey there, gorgeous... MS, you feeling the heat yet?

Drew Lee9, I completely get where you're coming from. Seattle is such a heavy industrial hub, honestly. Ugh.

The whiskey is hitting pretty hard today. Honestly, I just stepped out to Target and back, and I think I managed to get a nasty sunburn on my shoulders in record time. 🤦

A $2-3 million prize for winning the Grand Slam? That's pocket change. 😒 😁

Even if it's $5 million, the carpet is still unpolished.🙂

God, women are crazy. 😁 😳

Good morning, you peasants. ☕

Well, good morning to you too.
It was actually pretty warm out today. What kind of coffee are you sipping on this morning? I’ve been making this specific brew—it’s what people call "cowboy coffee" around here, sort of like how folks in certain rural parts of the country have their own little traditions.
Basically, you just toss two or three spoonfuls of grounds into a cup along with as much sugar as you can stomach, and then you pour hot water right over it.
If you’re one of those people who prefers milk in their coffee, go ahead and add some. Then you just give it a good stir and let it sit for a minute so the grounds can settle at the bottom.
And then, finally, you drink it.☕

I stumbled upon this recently... it's essentially the same process. A bit sneaky, really—I just swap out the sugar for a teaspoon of honey. 😍

Edit... It isn't sweltering just yet, but they're predicting a total furnace today. I've aired the place out, but now I'm sealing everything up tight. 😁

Honestly, it feels like ages since I’ve been back home in the States.
It seems like everyone has finally made the switch over to the American edition of coffee.

I don't recognize anything but black coffee
no sugar, no cream 😒 ☕

Drew Lee9, sorry, but which neighborhood are you hanging out in? Black coffee, no sugar... hmm, let me think...🤔
I can see you're trying to channel Đolet, but honestly, that guy had a massive sweet tooth.😍

ironcobra13 said:Drew Lee9, sorry, but which sister are we talking about here? Black coffee... hmm...🤔
I see you're a fan of Đolet, but the man had a massive sweet tooth.😍

No sugar in this house.
😁
Đole is a legend.🙏

Same here, just keeping it sugar-free. Big congrats to Mia on the new thread—honestly stoked I got a personal invite😳🙂

Sending love from my own place😳

Ahvic finally escaped these blankets🕺
😁

Ducek🙂🙂
Where have you been hiding?🙂

Yo🙂
Finally on vacation, so I’m just chilling, catching some rays, keeping things low-key😬

Where's my coffee?
I can't drink this stuff up there☕

Get me a Barcafe or a Nescafe☕

It’s too late for that now. I’ll just whip you up one like today's over at Zosa in the morning.😳
