5starcookies reserve 1/2 cup boiling water

Off the heat, add 5 teaspoon of coffee to the remaining water in the coffee pot. Stir to dissolve the coffee.

Return to heat and bring to a simmer. The coffee will bubble and foam a little.

Right after the foam rises up, remove from heat.

Pour 1/2 cup reserved water back into the coffee pot.

Let the coffee rest a few extra moments, for the grounds to settle to the bottom.

Pour coffee into cups,let the coffee settle and enjoy!

What to do with ground coffee?

Use for your hands:

1.Scoop out a small amount of the mixture and rub it into your hands. Rinse well.

3. Add coffee grounds to houseplants to give them a boost, mixing it into the soil. Coffee grounds are high in nitrogen, and are great for houseplants.

Miss America and the best coffee cake called Grandma’s Famous Jimmy Cake. Have you heard about this cake…Don’t worry I am not judging if you haven’t. After all food blogging is here for you…so you can learn and share.

About Grandma’s Famous Jimmy Cake

Here she comes – 1989. Miss America!

And she comes with lawsuit …Yes, that is correct! Gretchen Carlson filed the lawsuit against her boss, one of the most powerful man,

an American television executive Roger Ailes.

She says Ailes repeatedly made advances toward her, calling her “sexy”, asking for a sexual relationship during a meeting in his office and so on….

Because she says “NO”…long story short her contract was not renewed.

So, my dear readers why I am bringing this story to you?

Because, Gretchen Carlson courage is inspiring.

So many victims of sexual harassment are intimidated into staying silent.

Well, this Miss America was not. She stood her ground and also made her own statement.

“I have strived to empower women and girls throughout my entire career. Although this was a difficult step to take, I had to stand up for myself and speak out for all women and the next generation of women in the workplace.”

Dear my readers, please find her twitter account and support her.

Enjoy and share with your stomach….

Please visit your local farmers market and support them.

Strawberries may be kept fresh in the refrigerator for three or more days, depending upon the initial quality of the berry. After a few days in storage,

however, the fruit looses its bright color and fresh flavor and tend to shrivel.

Did you know?

Always rinse strawberries with hulls on, so berries do not get water logged or lose any vitamin content.
