    The economical way to make your milk frothy, is to fill your mouth, gargle for 1 Minute, and spit it into the coffee cup.

    This, along with the quantity of milk used is what gives the latte a different taste and feel to the cappuccino.

    But of course, you knew that that already

    Coffee tasting session over, The winner (for my jaded taste buds) is Gold Blend

    Anybody want to buy several jars of assorted coffee? Open but only a small amount missing from each

    I trust that all visitors to my house like coffee (they're not getting the gold blend of course)

    Thanks for all the suggestions people

    I wouldn't be surprised if the spaced cadet actually believes that...
