I already don't like having assumptions made about my beliefs just because I hold one or two in common with one side of the political spectrum. Maybe it is inevitable, but I don't have to like it.
While I can agree, in concept, with the right to have personal freedoms that certainly doesn't mean that I am a libertarian, nor that I hold many beliefs in common with the ideology....and yet I have been told (not asked, not assumed, but TOLD) that I must therefore be a libertarian. No sir, I didn't like it.
Freshly ground beans.
Put beans in a pot with some water.
Slice open fresh vanilla pod/bean.
Scrape contents into pot.
Drop pod in as well.
Boil to a froth and allow to reduce a bit.
Repeat the boiling/reduction until I have an almost treacle thick coffee/vanilla mass.
Pour into mug.
Add sugar, but not too much.
Drink.
I don't make coffee often, but I like it to be as black as sin and as strong as... as... a very strong thing indeed!
