Coffee and Tea
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Instant coffee makes a wonderful topping for coffee cake, or a jiffy tie dye shirt for that stained white silk blouse you could not wear again, otherwise. Just tie this shirt up into knots, wrap rubber bands, roll in strong instant coffee, rinse in cool water, then in vinegar, then rinse again. Avoid bleaching silk shirts whenever possible.

Have a box about the house. There are some interesting quotes on the box, just like there would be on a box of Celestial Seasonings tea.
Follow your bliss and don’t be afraid, and doors will open where you didn’t know they would be.
- Joseph Campbell
We are shaped and fashioned by what we love
- Goethe
The egg yolk stripped off the dark and frosted the earth in a sheen of light.
And when it felt shy and overexposed, it reclothed in horizon and bid us goodnight.

Coffee substitutes include roast soy beans, chickory, and bark or blackened toast (charcoal), which may be ground and added to coffee. A few companies, such as Community Coffee, already add chickory to some of their coffee blends. Postum is a brand name for a coffee substitute, much like instant coffee.
