Welcome, welcome, welcome!
Hoping for a calm and peaceful day….my best advice?
You can’t have a good morning without good coffee or proper tea!
It’s the Law. It’s my law, but still….
All are welcome to join the fun, the silliness, the conversations. If you don’t know...just ask! Some things really do require a bit of explanation.
There will be a few surprises along the way, all good ones, we hope.
We are here to keep building the Daily Kos Community.
We post Mon-Sun at 10:30 a.m. Eastern. On Sunday we go to the C!U!A! posting to show support for all the work for November’s elections. Please to join us there, as well.
Pie fights will be met with outrageous ridicule and insults. Trolls will be incinerated and served at the next group BBQ. As briquettes.
I know it’s almost blasphemy, but I have to admit to a yen for tea lately!
The first cup of coffee is a requirement, but after that...tea is such a comfort for me. Reminds me of “Home” in ways that I cannot even express. I grew up having hot tea with meals and after school, long before I started on coffee. Mum reminded us that tea got our ancestors through every major crisis of our lives. Immigration, war, Depression, and Nixon.
“When it doubt, put the kettle on!”
I must also point out that tea goes well with mum’s signature cheese bread or raisin bread. She always had to make extra cheese bread, because we would devour it the second it was cool enough to touch. I always asked for the heel, because it was the bestest part. Mum and I were the only ones who knew how nummy the ends could be. heh
One of my earliest memories (I was about three) is of mum making bread on a huge board in the dining room. She did it all by hand...no bread machine for her!
Since cooler weather has come, what are your cool/cold weather comfort foods?
Not that I need ideas, but I’m not foolish enough to turn any down, either!
New Day Cafe Is An Open Thread
Pull up a coffee and have a seat!
In case you missed it last night, SaraR put up a diary for the
Community Quilt For Tree Of Life Synagogue
One of the most important things we do here, is build Community. That is why there is a quilt from DK that was delivered to Mother Emmanuel AME Church, here in Charleston.
Sending messages of love and comfort and support to the Tree of Life Synagogue is a tangible reminder that we are all part of a Community of Hope and Love.
