OTOTOTOT - Folgers Coffee

Hi Cindy
Living in the coffee "mecca" of the U.S., I would be delighted to send
you some coffee if the conditions worsen in your parts.... or even if
they don't! We have many, many kinds of coffee here (besides Starbucks)
and for the most part, they are deeeeelicious! Really gets your motor
runnin' in the mornings. Please don't hesitate to shoot me an email if I
can be of assistance. Always happy to help a fellow coffee
lover.........

Patti, you are very kind to offer but you don't understand the situation
about our coffee. We don't want new, improved, trendy, better, exciting, or
improved . . . none of that. We just must have our dependable wonderful,
something we can count on that won't change, hit of Folger's coffee. In a
little bit, we become reasonable. Polly

Don't worry about them standing up - but I would be concerned if they start
to dissolve!

I never did tell him I knew. I just either grabbed a cup from my DD's
pot,
or stopped at the local Wa-Wa for a tall cuppa strong and regular. His
heart was in the right place. BTW, DD makes her own coffee - and it's a
bit
stronger than we're used to - as a matter of fact, we've seen spoons
standing upright in her cup!

After the Katrina, it was reported that coffee may be scarce and prices may
rise because of the storm. I stockpiled a supply. We can't do without our
Folgers in the morning. We really love the French roast!

Arghhhhhhh. I just got back from my local grocers and there was not a
"can" of Folger's Coffee on the shelves. Only Maxwell House.

I found a store guy and he said the Folgers coffee plant is down south,
Mississippi or La, he wasn't clear. But he said it would probably be a
month before they were up and running again.

This is not going to be pretty.

Cindy

Start pouring, I'll bring the banana bread.

We drink the Gourmet Supreme Dark Roast. DH is one that can drink it so
strong the spoon stands up. He loved the coffee in Italy - that stuff
walked to the demi-tasse (sp?) cup and jumped in the cup. That is too
strong for me. We prefer Folger's, but we just buy Maxwell House dark roast
if we can't find Folgers. We bought 2 cans of Folgers this week at Tom
Thumb (owned by Safeway).

Ohhhhh - believe me I understand. I'm one of those that grind my own
beans in the morning and I drink it very, VERY strong. My parents drink
Folgers and when we are all together under one roof, once a year or so,
there is always 2 coffee pots going...... one with "their" coffee, and
one with mine...... lol.

Should I tender my resignation from the group here and now?

I not only don't eat chocolate, I have never drunk a cup of coffee in my
life! I know this stuff is life blood to some - but I just don't get it.
You can all divi up my share! LOL
