    Hey @Joe Riley, I got myself an electric coffee bean grinder, and my first try with it made powdered coffee. Got any ideas what I can do with fine powdered coffee? I don't want to throw it away.

    Ina, my Daughter got me a small grinder for coffee beans for Christmas. The beans for 8 cups, require 17 seconds of grinding. Maybe you are over grinding the beans.Check your book of directions. Maybe you could sprinkle some, lightly over vanilla ice cream? You could always make your own "coffee bags". (size of tea bags).

    Being the artist you are, @Ina I. Wonder , you might consider coffee painting (using brewed coffee and and powdered grounds for darker shades, I think). Don't miss Joe's suggestion above.

    This 500 year old Arabic Coffee is a complex caffeinated combination of flavors - perfect for an after-dinner pick-me-up or a midnight drink while camping amongst the sand dunes. FULL RECIPE BELOW:


    INGREDIENTS:

    For 2 servings.

    - 3 Tbsp Arabic Coffee
    - 1/2 Cup Rose Water
    - 10 Cardamom Pods
    - 1/4 tsp Cardamom Seeds
    [​IMG]

    DIRECTIONS:

    Toast your cardamom pods over medium-high heat until they turn brown - about 2-3 minutes.

    Crush the pods with a mortar and pestle.

    Add fresh ground coffee to a pot along with the crushed cardamom. Fill with water, heat, and let simmer for 10 minutes.

    After 10 minutes, strain the grounds and spices and return the coffee back to a boil.

    Just before serving, add your cardamom seeds and rose water. Enjoy!

    Add some to hot chocolate or chocolate frosting. Think: mocha.

    500 year old coffee?
    That was 1516 in Medieval times! China's Ming Dynasty, and Leonardo di Vinci was still alive.

    Churros for breakfast is typical in Spain! Think of them as fried doughnut spaghetti. They are usually eaten with thick hot chocolate, sugar or coffee.

    At today's Staff meeting, the Crew decided to call a "Time Out" from our Hi-Goodbye duties, and close the place, during Super Bowl 50. We plan to fill the Hi-Goodbye van and head over to Lara Moss's house for the SUPER BOWL 50 PARTY,that she is throwing! It was unanimous!:D
