Probably the caffein withdrawal is what makes real trouble :-)
(just conted: 4 kg coffee left *phiew*)
Must be more than one container then. On this side of the pond, a 3
lb can is a big one, I get nervous when I am down to the last can.
For use, that can gets dumped into a smaller plastic can with a
handle that works much better for filling the Mr. Coffee for
another 12 cups of Gods Blessing.
I've been known to have 4 of the big cans on top of the fridge,
buying it when its on sale at under 7 dollars a can. Wouldn't want
to run out between sales now would we?

rather an expensive habit, and probably qualifies as an
addiction, but then as I get older, I have fewer and fewer
dependable pleasures, so by that measure it's cheap. It also goes
well with reading, and a good book is a friend for life.

When I start reading a Louis LaMoore book I can not put it down, his
study on American History is one of the best and the way he tells a
story fascinates me. I have crates full of his books and I have read
them all, not one of them was a bad story. Many of his story's have
been made to film.
