Two photos from a nice and easy Tuesday morning.
#1: I don't usually buy this brand of coffee, but it was on sale, two for the price of one. I tried it this morning. Not the best, but better than average.
#2: The Crock-Pots are loaded with potatoes which I will mash later. Mashed potatoes will be a side dish for an easy chicken recipe I'm making for tonight. Some trivia: Though the name "Crock-Pot" is ubiquitous for this ubiquitous product, only the Rival corporation can call their appliance a "Crock-Pot". All other companies must call theirs something else, like a "slow cooker". I still have a Crock-Pot from the early 70's that is not shown here. It is lime green with hippie-like flowers all over it.


You want the worlds worst coffee, and be overcharged for it?Head over to my college canteen…. 😛 (Cafeteria on some continents….)
You should take your camera out there sometime. I'd love to see more of Shaunak's world. :coffee:
Incidentally I am heading out to buy a new slow cooker (generic name). I got all the ingredients yesterday but no pot.
The Rival Crock-Pot is the one most people think of when they go to buy one, but I think they are all OK. My small one (above left), was very cheap, but does not have a high/low setting, it's either on or off. It runs in between the larger one's high/low setting. which is a little too hot to leave it alone all day, which makes it worthless for leaving all day while at work. I do like that it has a glass lid, while the big one has plastic. The big one runs fine temp wise. High will make it boil while on low you can leave it for many hours.I wonder what you're making? :chef:
a cup coffe in the morning. hmmmm slurrrpy.
I'm having a cup right now. Want some? 😀
I swear, I think some of these places make these rules just because they can, or just for the hell of it. Here, the words "national security" often come up, which can be a catch-all for anything. When I raise up a camera in public, I always feel like police action is imminent, or at the least some Pinkerton guard is going to go after me. This makes me act stressed and funny, which further raises the chances of being "intercepted".
Actually they designated the cafeteria as a "no cellphone zone", primarily because they do not want the health department discovering the low standards…… 😛
