    Coffee

    Just a coffee making tip I've learned: When you put the ground coffee into the basket, pack it down like the espresso guys do. (I use the bottom of the honey jar) It makes the water flow through the coffee slower and picks up more flavour. You can actually cut back on the amount of coffee...

    Are Crows fair game?

    I know that farmers have had it in for crows since before the first scarecrow was invented, but I wonder what they do about them nowadays. We have crows, you see, and these crows have developed a bad habit of congregating in the big tree outside our bedroom window at 5:AM every day and their...

    Hwy 404 Extension at last?

    I noticed they're breaking ground at the north end of Hwy 404 in Newmarket. It looks like the long awaited 404 extension and Bradford bypass may be on their way. I sure hope so, because every new leg they build makes my drive to work a faster one and increases my property values. I can't...
