well.........Heilsan, Pagan Pal............

I like coffee, more like hot icecream........this mornings variety is:
chocolate, mint, whole milk, and a splash of bourbon.........a small splash, but, nice for flavor.

Sounds absolutely delicious.
Real mint? I plan on bringing plenty of that for the week.
Any tips for a newb on keeping the fresh leaves actually Fresh out on the playa at camp?

hmmm....interesting combo...don't mind if I do. How's kicks today Ygmir?

Oh, hey there Victorian. Can I call you Vic or Vicky?

ygmir · Post by **ygmir** » Fri Jan 15, 2010 6:12 am

keeping them directly in ice works well.........if you want them to be close to "fresh". Dried mint works, too.
for morning coffee, I use the essential oil of mint...very strong, easy to keep.

Victorian · Post by **Victorian** » Fri Jan 15, 2010 6:16 am

Great Idea.
I'll be using it mainly for cooking snacks or using in ice water/lemonades/etc so leaves are what I'll need.

I'm addicted to Mojitos!

Good morning Sputnik. Call me Victorian, Katie, Kate, or any that you listed. I am not a picky gal.

Hows your friday?

haha Yeah, a little more sleep was what was required.

I must(body n mind) be getting the hints that spring is around the "larger" corner.

I know that next weeks weather will knock me back into winter sleep mode....

Happy Friday Everyone!!!!

I have fire conclave meeting tonight, suppose to be a fun fun fun meeting with alcohol and fire!
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Victorian · Post by **Victorian** » Fri Jan 15, 2010 8:05 am

Sounds like fun everyone...
I've got a full work week ahead of me. I start every day bright and early, cloking in at 5 am. But in the spring and summer I hit the lake every day...

I have the hiccups. And it's lunchtime for me already. Ugh 9 am... food I cannot think about yet...

littleflower · Post by **littleflower** » Fri Jan 15, 2010 8:16 am

morning!

victorian, last year i made a jar of very heavily minted simple syrup for my mint juleps, and it worked great .... keeps well in the cooler, no moop potential, and very handy. i'm pretty sure splenda or stevia would work as well... worth an experiment, anyhow...

i get to paint to-day, then concert tonight, woo hoo! i love the disney hall.

have a great day, everyone!

magicmarty · Post by **magicmarty** » Fri Jan 15, 2010 8:22 am

Checking in for that coffe concotion. Way to start the day!!!

geospyder · Post by **geospyder** » Fri Jan 15, 2010 8:25 am

Mornin all. Home coffee is done. Heading out to meet some peeps at Starbucks for another cup and then we're going geocaching. Later.

pinemom · Post by **pinemom** » Fri Jan 15, 2010 8:28 am

YAY! Friday!

Victorian · Post by **Victorian** » Fri Jan 15, 2010 8:33 am

Wonderful Idea!!! I'll add simple syrup of mint to my list.

I love you guys! And I haven't even met you.
That's burner love... Or something...

Victorian · Post by **Victorian** » Fri Jan 15, 2010 1:51 pm

I'm jealous Dougly.

Home from work now. But getting sick I fear.. sore throat... =(

Anyone have any good remedies? I've had my tonsils out and never get sore throats.. forgot how much they hurt! Vitamin C here I come.

Ugly Dougly · Post by **Ugly Dougly** » Fri Jan 15, 2010 2:36 pm

Whatever.

Victorian · Post by **Victorian** » Fri Jan 15, 2010 3:02 pm

I've got apricot ginger bath stuff. I'll soak and have some in my tea as well...
Didn't realize it had cold properties.. love the stuff and cook with it often.

Thanks yous!

Something different?

Simon of the Playa · Post by **Simon of the Playa** » Fri Jan 15, 2010 4:27 pm

my sense of humor borders on tasteless, of course...

anyone for a voodoo Priestess?

gyre · Post by **gyre** » Fri Jan 15, 2010 4:38 pm

Your sense of humour?

I worked the phrase "mousy bitch" into a wedding toast once.

But it is true that I'm shyer than you are.

I worked the phrase "mousy bitch" into a wedding toast once.

mocha for a Friday treat, and enough gas to get into the projects. Invested in a hole saw and arbor. Made a mock up with cardboard and it sounds good. something like this as end product hopefully. 4" pvc. It's neat how the pipe gives a bottom end to a tiny speaker.
