Much Ado About...Vices

After a breakfast flavored brushing and flossing session:
Or any other time of the day;I love nothing more, then
 a nice iced coffee. being as we are not "Rockefeller's"
we can't afford to go to Starbucks everyday. so we make do at home.
So i make cold brew coffee at home. It is way better then
brewing a cup and then cooling it off which waters it down.


start with good coffee. I used half a pound per 2qts
COLD water. pour in container, cover,and let steep
eight hours or overnight. The next morning, strain off
grounds, and pour thru cheesecloth or, I use coffee
filters. then pour into a container. It'll keep in the refrigerator
for up to a month. altho, it won't last that long:).

I found a beverage dispenser with a spout at wallyworld
for $4. it's plastic though, not glass like I wanted.

Now for the best part: Drinking it! Put ice in a glass, add coffee:
it's a little strong, but you want it to be. 'cause you add cream, flavoring,
or just ice and milk. Go with whatever your favorite drink is.
We happen to be on a chocolate coconut mocha kick. Yummy!

since this is a post about vices, our other vice is Gallons and
 Gallons of ice tea
in summer. and hot tea in winter. and to make it easier to
obtain your fix, we (using the royal we) open the tea all at once.
I mean who wants to open all those tedious packets with shaking hands.
