Despite the fact that I live in the coffee drinking capital of the world, I'm a little perplexed by what's going on in that picture.

My father drinks it. He buys it at Costco, they have a machine to grind the beans once you buy em. Stick the powder thingy in, put the little lid on it and pour boiling water on top and it drops down. At least that's how I think it works.

It looks a bit like Vietnamese coffee. Which is brewed in a very similar way: Coffee is finely ground, mixed with chicory root, then put into a little metal canister where it's squeezed into the bottom. There are holes on top and holes under the coffee. Boiling water is poured in, and slowly filters thru the grounds into the cup it's sitting on. With Vietnamese coffee it's mixed with sweetened condensed milk - which is thick like pudding. It makes a delicious cup of coffee.

I worked as a coffee roaster and cupper for many years. There are few things I know more about than coffee. Thanks Weirdkid, you took my request for a "cup of coffee" to the next level - bravo!

And that's what I am I don't think my parents use the chicory root. My mother drinks it with the sweetened condensed milk. Not quite sure what my father drinks it with.

If only, I have bad sleeping habits. I don't drink coffee either.

Next, I pick a picture of Sun Life Stadium, home of the big game. I have a pic I took yesterday when I went to Miami for reference.

Not sure my zoom will be strong enough to get a good view from Michigan.
