Quoting Elisabeth:


Sure, Femme, you can come too...how do you like your eggs?


eggs with onion, bacon (or kielbasa may do instead), plz and of course, real coffee (not american or english)



What is 'real' coffee? With coffee grounds in the cup?

We have had to learn compromise on a lot of things....In other words, I had to choose my battles.

I will pass on the Turkish coffee...gives me heart palpitations!!! I have a perk pot too. Maybe you should bring yours, I think we will be quite a crowd.

Oh, it sounds like fun and very interesting. I would love to join in too and bring some of my "East Coast" wisdom. (ha,ha). Or you are all welcome to join me for a different taste of the U.S.

Oh Femme - what happened to you? You are even resorting to stereotyping our coffee now eh? Hahaha! You think we all drink Nescafe instant! Well the Brits love coffee and tend to like the Italian or Brazilian blends best. If you come to my house you can have expresso or filter Cuban or Italian blend.

Incidently if you think Turkish coffee is the only real coffee you clearly never tried Jamacian Blue Mountain . Its the most expensive coffee in the world and the best beans are worth more than gold If you made it Turkish style you would completely destroy its delicate flavour

Quoting AEnigma III:

Absolutely! It does make me laugh though that every country I have ever visited is praised in travel brochures as being "well known for their wonderful hospitality".

I wonder if I will ever get to visit a country which is "well known for their hostility" to visitors? lol

It would make a nice change



I think this would apply if an american tourist would go to Iraq right now. I think all the people in Iraq hate us right now. Even though there are tons of people against the war in the USA.
