Constantinople, for this town has only 10,000 inhabitants- & went and had one more cup of Turkish coffee at a coffee house. Delicious it was too. To ask for a cup of coffee is about all I can say in Turkish & to be requested to sit down about all I can understand. At this coffee house were two Turks, perfectly unEuropeanized, playing a game of our Backgammon. Very likely it originated here. Nothing in a Turkish town is worth seeing but the bazar & the mosques & I was afraid I should get into difficulty if I tried them here where they are not used to tourists. There was a fine acqueduct in the Roman fashion but I thought probably not Roman all things considered about it. I declare I hate to part from that Turkish coffee. Now you do precisely as I tell you. Take some of the very best coffee, part mocha. Roast it well & while it is hot grind it very fine indeed to a very fine powder. Screw your coffeemill up to its tightest. All depend on this. Then immediately warm it again if it’s cold & take about half a measure of this & half a measure of boiling water. Put it right on the fire & give it one boil. It must be on so short

a time that it does not get bitter. Then take it off pour it into a cup a little smaller than a claret glass (that cup on your bureau is just the thing) do not for the world clear it but wait an instant & the grounds will go to the botton. Sip as soon as the top part is pretty clear & not gritty, without any sugar (because it ought not to be the least bitter) or else if the coffee is not good enough for that with just a little pot in in making it. Of course the bottom of the cup will be all grounds & that you leave. Try it. French coffee is a perfect fool to it. Cavalla would be an excellent place to observe the eclipse if a better cannot be had. It would be an endurable place to be for a couple of weeks & the instruments could easily be got there & easily put up in a good place. What is also of importance, a telegraph connects it with points whose longitude is known. The inhabitants seemed to think me quite a curiosity this morning but I really don´t see why they should. I have much more to say I assure you & if this dullest days admit of being described at such length you may imagine what the rest of the time is when I can with difficulty get time to put pen to paper.

Oh Coffee I love you so
In the mornings you make me go
late at night
you keep me company
where would I be without thou?

Oh coffee, the blackest delight
you make the day seem so bright
Dont need no sugar
nor milk
I like you just the way you are.

I prefer Mountain Dew to tea, or coffee. More caffeine goodness, no burned tongue

And don't just look, try to stare with such power and passion that it becomes nearly unnatural. Then - and only then - have you succeeded.

sNarah

Deadly! I'm going to be dedicating a thread to you tomorrow for being AWEsome.

I've never gotten a thread dedicated to me, not that I care

Deki

But you have now.:)

I bet the life time supply of rice-a-roni was behind door one:(

sNarah

Squary, you'll have to wait for that thread to be dedicated to you - Fago! swooped in and went for Wolfie - who DOES deserve a thread too, though it's probably going to result in Latverian problematics and nationalism.

In the meanwhile - have another prize!
