God bless my coffee pot
Brew that I Love!
Works in AM, and PM!
And the light glows so green with its love!
From the Dark Roast to the Light Roast,
To Cappuccino, white with foam!
God Bless my coffee pot, in my home sweet home!
God Bless my coffee pot, in my home sweet home!
Delay Brew!

Tonight's was laundry time, so all I really wanted was some ramen noodles and a glass of fruit slush punch. I made my own seasoning packet because I recently browsed through the new Lucky Peach magazine, and its focus was on ramen. Their best piece of advice was to just throw away the packet o flavored salt that comes with the noodles. Long story short, flavor of the evening was a teaspoon or so of Chicken "Better than Bouillon" paste, a couple of shakes of Tobasco, a squirt of lime juice, and a bit of black pepper. It was the best ramen I've ever had!
The fruit slush punch is a recipe from my mom. When I was little, she'd make it for wedding showers or family parties but I couldn't have ANY because "it was for adults and has booze in it." Mom, it has TROPICAL KOOL-AID in it! How can it not be for kids?? I'd only sneak a spoonful, because red Kool-aid tongue and alcohol breath is quite the smoking gun.
Rough recipe- empty ice cream bucket, 1 orange juice concentrate, refill can with alcohol of choice, refill again with a can of water, add packet of unsweetened Tropical Kool-Aid, and a Bag of Frozen Strawberries, and mix & freeze! Once frozen, should be a scoop-able consistency due to the alcohol. Serve in a glass with sprite or other chosen carbonated beverage.
