stir it up

In the hope of saving more teaspoons from the garbage disposal, I offer this harmless and fun excercise.

Please do not stir your coffee, it is too hard on the fluids and disrupts the soul of the dead beans!

Yes I have lost my mind, as a matter of fact! Thank you for noticing.

For those who drink their coffee black, two words of warning. This excercise is not as fun. Also you must be kidding?! Put the milk in, mellow out, be creamy, get in touch with your inner udder.

-------------------------------------------------------
Excercise:
Take a cup or mug of coffee
Add the perfect amount of cream or milk, S L O W L Y
this has the added benefit of a visual display to watch early in the morning
( you can tell I don't have cable, or dish)
So now if you have done this right, the coffee is on the top and most of the cream or milk is on the bottom, due to the fact that you just put it there. Oh, and its heavier.
If you did it wrong there is coffee and creamer all over the counter and you have to start mopping. Try again.
Here is the cool part, yes you are going to want to get up from your blogging and go make coffee just to try this. Leave the teaspoon in the drawer or dish drain! It is now reserved for tea, and cereal and getting really tough oil stains off the garage floor.
Holding the mug in close to your chest, begin to turn yourself in a circle, counterclockwise.
The coffee/ cream mixture will appear to turn clockwise in your mug, and begin to mix together, ever so gently so that the moo part does not offend the bean part, and both will make happy harmony on their way to your gut part and give you the desired effect ( usually a trip to the bathroom).

Christi said...

haha..I think just pouring the coffee a bit harder onto the creamer mixes it up pretty well too. But I'm totally going to spin in my kitchen now =)

Hello via Michele's M&G.

Big Bear is gorgeous. My ex-husband used to live there, he took me to visit once.

OK, this sounds like a recipe for disaster. :-)

You've inspired me to try to capture the mixing of the milk with my camera. The convection makes for fascinating imagery.

Okay so now I have this massive burn on my chest and no coffee to drink. Thanks dude. :)

Okay so I didn't really do it because I'm one of those evil kinds of people who drinks their coffee black. It's not as hard on the teeth that way. ;)

This had me laughing very hard, but mostly at all of you who have to put cream in your coffee in the first place.

Dropped by from Michele's place.

"Inner-Udder?" I hope this didn't have anything to do with my last-week's post!
Well, I do like lotsa whole milk in my tea... very slowly!

Leslie Shelor said...

I drink tea, so I suppose I'll have to continue to use the teaspoon. But it's safe from the garbage disposal. I don't have one.

Thanks for visiting my blog!

Does the snow block the reception?

Get in touch with your inner udder. Too funny, I'm going to use that on my husband, especially since he drinks his coffee black :)
