    Wondering when a worldwide coffee shortage will occur and contemplating the terrors we'll all witness when it happens. :grimace:

    supply / demand

    The price goes up.... it's coffee, how high can it go ? *shrug

    It's just like when folks talk about the price of a gallon of milk; I have no idea how much milk costs.
    If I need or want it I buy it. (fuel too.)

    it's not like we're purchasing plutonium.....



    In my area until recently milk was $1.59 per gallon for the longest time. Now it’s over $2.00. You’re welcome 😊

    Eta: btw demand is actually down. Farmers are dumping

    True story

    Today I went to the grocery and was standing in line, I was 'on-deck' and next to go.

    A lady walks up behind me and has only three items, they were: flowers, a bottle of wine & cheese


    I said:

    "You just have three items, why don't you jump ahead of me ?"

    She did

    She checked out and left the store.

    I approached the cashier and the cashier handed me a five dollar bill and said:

    "Here, the lady that just checked out told me to give this to you and you need to buy your favorite candy bar."


    A Snickers was purchased.



    Then it rained

    and the rain was cold.

    Is this really a true story? That’s awesome!

    Edit: it's only raining in my book

    True.

    I bought a Snickers.... & also a Payday candy bar for our son.

    He won't like the Payday and will beg me to trade him the Snickers for his Payday.

    I'll make the trade, but I'll make him work for it.

    He'll have the Snickers and I'll put the Payday in the freezer..... then take it out on Christmas Eve and put it in his stocking.

    One time I was in drive thru waiting to order with my kids. We were joking about the BIG truck in front of us...and you know what they say about guys with big trucks. Then ...he paid for our dinner and I felt awful.







    Learned a lesson.











    Then it rained.


    this rain you speak of...


    was it cold ?


    did you walk home in it?


    was your scarf pulled up tight around your neck ?

    Heh, no. My husband has tried it and the civet cat coffee while he was deployed and we were living in Japan at the time. Apparently it is quite smooth, despite its erm.. origins.

    Happy birthday to you!

    Also, I was looking for a Throwback Thursday picture. This is not to celebrate birthdays, but could have been the product of a drunken beach birthday celebration? Idk. 3 years ago someone left a giant log in the toilet and forgot to flush!!!

    Very Nice.

    Happy Birthday !!


    It's also The TrophyWife's Birthday today.



    It's always easy for me to remember her birthday.... because it's also Jeffery Dahmer's birthday
    (it's true; look it up.)
