Welcome to Australia !

Do come in ... I've made some scones to share with you.
They are still warm so do hurry ...

Jane's asked a few questions of us this week ... let me answer them while I fix you a cuppa ...
Jane : How do you say, "two coffees with milk" in your corner?

Bonnie: "two coffees, white"

When asked how you take your coffee you answer either black or white and then the number of teaspoons of sugar you take. So ... if you like your coffee with milk and one tsp of sugar you would say you take your coffee "white with one".
What would you like ? I could make you a cup of tea. I have a lovely lemon ginger tea that is quite soothing.

Or maybe you would like a cup of my fire place cinnamon rooibos tea. It's my favorite one ...
Jane : What are the most popular ways to drink coffee?

Bonnie : Unfortunately, I'd say the majority of the population still drinks INSTANT COFFEE.

Eeek !!
I'll put the cinnamon tea leaves in my special tea pot for you ...

Or maybe, just maybe you'd like a hot chocolate ...
It's Cadbury. And there's marshmallows !! mmmmmmmmmm ...

Ok. Ok. I know this is supposed to be about coffee !
Here we go.
These are the 'coffees' that Rory makes for the kids.
They are just frothed milk with chocolate powder sprinkled on the top.
Too cute.

Jane : How do you take your coffee? French press, percolator, espresso, or other?

Bonnie : Well, until just recently, I very rarely drank coffee at all. But then ... ah, I remember the day ... I discovered the Mocha Latte. The bitterness of coffee that I couldn't get past was softened with a hint of chocolate ! AND THEN ... oh, even better, I discovered Caramel Mocha Latte !!! Now that, my friends, is heaven in a glass ! Seriously ...

Here, try mine ...

Well ... that's about it from me for this week's corner view.
Oh wait ... Jane has two more questions that I need to answer ...

Jane : Are you a dunker?

Bonnie : Indeed !

Jane : What was the funniest topic of conversation over a recent cup of coffee?

Bonnie : I had a conversation over a cuppa at art class where we discussed intestinal worms and various ways they exit the body. In this case, it was funny - weird, not funny - ha ha.
