Heya Jo Jo,

I still have some homemade brownies and coffee ice cream if you would like some?? I made the brownies with an extra egg, so they are like cake brownies and very addicting, hehe...Have you ever heard of something called Chewy Cake? My stepdad's grandma always makes it, and she finally gave me the recipe. My roommate nearly took the whole Tupperware container to work with her....

Hope you are having a good night and keeping cool,

Zimmy

Good evening everyone...soooooo glad it's Friday.

I'm pooped...but luckily it's cooling off so I don't mind making dinner. The Rooster requested meatloaf, mashed potatoes, homemade gravy, corn on the cob and steamed broccoli. (He loves broccoli...seriously).

Dessert? Hmmmmm....any requests? I know my sweetie would vote for something chocolate for sure...

Welcome AtLast ....your percolator question made me smile.

Way back about 100 years ago I was bartending at a tiny, rough little bar in the middle of Wyoming. Lots of ranchers, some miners....tough place. I'd start work about 5 p.m. and first thing I did was to put an ancient percolator on, no matter the weather. Seems a couple of the old ranchers had land spread all over the place...and they'd stop at the bar on the way to do their last drive around before heading home. Several would order "a cup, a cow and a calf."

The cup....percolated coffee, so strong you poured it out and cut it off.
The cow...a fifth of whatever they drank (usually Jack Daniels).
The calf...a pint of the same...that was for the drive home.
Yea...they were some tough guys...and I'd hate to see their livers.
