Waddy the book, the chock full of nuts coffe, and the Rosewood Guild CD Forever and a Day made it today.

I'm enjoying the music right now. The coffee will have to wait until the Mrs. comes home. We always have coffee at 4PM. That's when she get's home from teaching school, fifth graders. Thirty years.

Thanks Paul, Waddy and friends from the guild, and Morris who wrote the book, Company Punishment: Love, Prejudice, and a Desperate Flight From Disaster in World War 2.

The Rosewood Guild CD is very enjoyable. I've done the download into the ITunes software and tomorrow, I'll be wearing your music in my Shuffle.

Oh, Chock full of Nuts Coffee is really good. I think you said it was Medium Roast. Any way, My wife and I enjoyed a pot of coffee with it at 4 PM today. Thank you, great coffee, very satisfying and not dark roast, yes! That was a stout batch at ten cups of water though..... We drank it all!

Waddy, someone mentioned Hills Brothers Coffee at Harps. Well they had it but, not in a one pound container. But guess what I found.... ?

A 13 oz. can of Chock Full of Nuts Coffee, original. From New York. I'm sipping on a cup right now. The medium roast is a bit darker than the Community Coffee light/medium. Tastes Great.

I compared the roast side by side dry and they look really close, but the CFON was a tiny bit darker, as expected. Thanks for that sample. Now I have two good coffees to choose from.

Glad you found some.  You know, you don't have to like it.  You get to have your own taste preferences.  I can't imagine why, though, when you have a wife.  I keeps me liking it - that is, the fact that my wife likes it too.  She even knows when I round off the measures a little.  If you have more than one you like, it will make them both taste good longer.

Rounding off the measures, hey now that's some sensitive tastebuds. My wife let's me know when I get it wrong too, especially if it's week.

I just read a blog from Honduras, my brother and sis in law are on a church trip. She said everyone down there had coffee bean plants growing in their back yard. Oh Man! I gotta try roasting some one day. I love parching peanuts in the stove. The peanuts and smell are Heavenly. Just like chock full o nuts coffee.

Read the can.  There are no nuts in the coffee.  My DIL manages the trade with the Americas for the SC Dept. of Commerce.  She has to travel to Central and South America often, and sometimes brings coffee back with her.  Some of the Costa Rican coffees are really nice.  Strong, but good coffee.  I have to use a good bit less than I do of CFON.
