amonkie, are you in Canada?
Shell, I didn't have breakfast this morning so I'm hungry again which is why I guessed "Canada" since I was remembering the Pacific Northwest Eggs Benedict I had in Vancouver....wonderful, fresh, buttery smoked salmon, poached eggs, on a toasted English muffin covered with Hollandaise sauce....mmmmmmm |

amonkie, are you looking for a fresh cup of java in Central America? ...they do harvest some fine beans in that area.
My current personal favorite is Gold Coast Blend from Starbucks, which I have them grind "Turkish", the finest their machine can grind; then I use a Melitta dripper cone thingy with 5 tablespoons of this rich brown powder, and then just pour near boiling water in to fill my two cup mug, add a splash of whole milk of half/half to taste. Go buzz. |

That I would be ... I found this coffee on Saturday and it inspired me to sit back and enjoy the view.
At least parks hereabouts aren't covered in snow...

amonkie, are you in Belize?
Shell, please let's leave Stephani out of this or the rest of my day might be lost in an unproductive daze. Otherwise, to defend eggs with fish, I hereby submit that chopped eggs are a classic accompaniment to caviar aka FISH eggs; also, many delis I've been in serve scrambled eggs with lox...aka smoked salmon FISH which makes a wonderful combination although not as tasty IMO as my Great Northwest Eggs Benedict Arnold (I threw that "Arnold" in there to allude to the traitor aspect of our discussion, i.e. your hesitance to accept fish and eggs together) |

Nope nope.
But just for the record. I'm not actually anywhere associated with coffee.. I just saw the name of this place on a fair trade blend. But I love listening to some Beatle's Revolution 9.
