Ack!! I think my Handpresso just died!!!! NOOO!!!!! I hope you'll still have one of these left next week!!!

I've been using this Krups model for about a year now. Gives a good consistent grind. It's fairly quick and quiet. Grinder Link

I'm going to guess the ability to use freshly ground coffee as opposed to the ESE pods gives you a better result than the handpresso? What I've found with the handpresso is that it makes a decent espresso, but I feel the oils from freshly roasted/ground coffee are lacking with the ESE pods...

All righty, I got a few of those started. My walls are bare and boring other than a few vintage Fender Guitar items. A few smoking items would be nice. And since this is a good cause, I won't be too upset if I get outbid.

I don't particularly enjoy exercising. I come up with a million excuses and rationales to avoid getting on that accursed exercise bike. Then I try to convince myself that 10 minutes of fairly vigorous riding was enough; then 20 minutes; then 25 minutes. Once I get to that point I run out of...

Glad you came back with another installment. I enjoy your writing. You've got a very enjoyable style. Thanks for sharing.

Hi. Keep an eye on the regional forum above, and also you can join the Texas social group. Welcome.

This is very useful info so far. Thanks, it's greatly appreciated.

Oh man this is killing me. I want to go so bad. Hoping to make it in Feb/Mar of next year. I'm leaving the cats and guitars in Austin so I know I'll have to come back home. But I'm really hoping to be able to go and stay one of these days.

Excellent suggestion. Thanks very much.

Hi. I have a vague idea of what a bicycle is and if the adage is true, I'll remember how to ride one. I hope, otherwise this may be a painful endeavor. I'm presently riding a recumbent exercise bike. This is getting boring. I'm wanting to begin looking for a real bicycle to continue getting...

I saw you visited my profile. Welcome to the board. Nice to see another Jeep owner. I'm sure it's a very different world up where you live, compared to life down here in Texas. Have a nice day. Darin

Another followup I'm at 143 pounds lost as of today. This week I have committed myself to exercising and have ridden my exercise bike every night - just under 8 miles last night in 1/2 hour. While this may not seem like much to many here - this is much more than I could have considered just a...

Agreed. Looking forward to seeing more.

For me, the key to good tofu is cooking it right. It took me awhile to get it to where I like it. I've found that a really hot pan/wok and then putting a lid on it to crisp up the outside gives really good results. I made major, major lifestyle changes earlier this year. Part of that was...

mmm Stirfry type thing I was starving tonight. I started with organic, extra firm tofu. Got the skillet really hot with some olive oil, tossed in the tofu, some smoked paprika, turmeric, a pepper flake blend, a bit of garam masala and a liberal dousing of Louisiana brand hot sauce. Voila...

Added HiLift I don't have a good place to mount my HiLift for when I'm going to go out exploring so I bought one of the tube mount kits and put it on yesterday morning. I know there are pros and cons to putting this thing out front - more weight, if it falls off it will kill me, etc. But I...

I would definitely love to read more. I'm trying to get a trip planned that will take me all the way down the peninsula for early next year. I have an uncle living in Pescadero (just south of Todos Santos) and I'm really wanting to go see him, and have a great road trip along the way.

This guy ran into the window of our rental in Allenspark, CO - just outside Estes Park. I held him for a few minutes until his little brain got itself rebooted.
