Its gonna be one of those days
Got up early to get some more potatos planted before the rain. Stumbled down stairs like an old man went to the kitchen cranked on the hot water and stood there waiting for the coffee to come out. ......... Ah right needs a coffee maker and coffee first. I gotta go shopping for an LCD tv or monitor later today, ............ which I only just barely understand when awake. I'll probably end up with a fishing rod. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Pre-coffee thoughts are often quite amusing later on in the day, aren't they?

Just finished 40 pounds of Irish cobbler potatos. Rusian blues are next then red cloud (only 10 pounds each) and theres another hard white potato I forget the name of, but its supposed to be a good one for long term storage.

The white potato is AC Chaleur, no wonder I had to look that up! Kennebecs grow well here but every home garden and market garden has/sells them and I wanted something different to sell.

The sad part is I'm first up, 99.9% of the time, I make the coffee 99.99999% of the time. I've been bad with pictures lately. I gotta fix that.

Maybe you can get the coffee pot that you set the night before. When I've had to make it in the morning I either forget the coffee or the water!

When I wake up every morning, I'm sitting on the couch with a cup of fresh coffee in my hand. Everyone else in the house is still asleep so I don't know who makes it, but I sure do appreciate it!
