Decided to put on a pot of coffee while I prepare dinner. And I was wiping down the counters and was wondering why my counter was so wet. And I am looking at the coffee pot, and it is filling up with grounds. I am thinking, OK, I know I put that coffee in right. So I open it up to see what the problem was. Just to discover that I forgot to put in the filter basket in the back of it. You would think that this is just an honest mistake. But I tell you this..........................




















































I WORK IN A COFFEE SHOP! I MAKE COFFEE FOR A LIVING!

Well my finger tips are a little red, as the grounds were still hot when I went to dig them out. Got it all cleaned out. And another pot brewing.

Cajin maybe your old co-worker and I can get together and write a book. "COFFEE MAKING FOR DUMMIES"


Thanks for making me feel better guys.

Hi Whisper! I've done something similar....I didn't put the pot in the correct position and the coffee ended up dripping out and around the carafe...made an awful mess......and speaking of coffee.. it's cool here... maybe I'll go make a pot..

Hello my dear Sage. The race is still on for the promotion. My boss is too kind hearted. You see, I am faster then the other girl, but my boss still wants to give her a chance because she has been there longer. But in the end it is all about speed, as it is nothing but rush, rush, rush.


It not only makes a big mess T.Rose, it makes a big HOT mess!
