Simple Panache

Travel

Maybe this will be the post for all of my readers to delurk and say hi! I know there are ALOT of you reading because there is that little thing called "stats" that I can look at and I seeeee youuuu.. LOL.. I love comments so please, say hi!

Has anyone out there went on a cruise on any of the major cruise lines? I am wanting to plan a trip and really dont know who to choose or anything about cruising really. I would appreciate any info or tips you might have because I trust you, my internet friends! :)

Of course I scared myself silly the other night watching a show on TLC or Discovery, I dont recall what channel but anyhow, they were talking about rogue waves that sink huge ships. I think my eye balls were O O  this big during the entire show! Nice stuff to watch just when you are planning a trip, eh?

I am realllly looking forward to some relaxing this weekend. I have way to many new recipes that I want to try out, like this one that Soule Mama posted on flickr YUM!  that made my stomach growl for the rest of the afternoon! ;)

Have a wonderful rest of the week and I look forward to some comments! ;)

Home coffee

I hate coffee made at home. Yes, I did just say that. I LOVE coffee, however I have a love hate relationship with my coffee maker. I really disliket the way it tastes after it is brewed in that plastic brewer basket.

So, in comes the stainless steel percolator.

I love the way my coffee tastes now, however I am really holding out on purchasing this:

Go ahead and take a look, I will wait.

Back? Ok good.

Its all about the stainless steel baby. It does wonders when brewing coffee. That is why the commercial coffee makers that Starbucks uses tastes sooo good.

For now this little bubbler will have to do. :)
