Re: Grinding coffee with food processor

Coffee beans are abrasive, they'll etch the inside of your food
processor, and food processors can't grind anything. If you are a
coffee drinker and intend to switch to using whole beans then buy a
burr grinder... if you've no intentions of switching to whole beans
then I'd suggest giving them to someone who does have a burr grinder.

I have not set foot in a Walmart in about 2 years and have no plans of
doing so in the future. I do enjoy browsing the Dollar Store and
Dollartree now and then. I was there about a week ago and one of the
employees was outside taking a break when I was coming out of the store. I

I won't be doing gift cards this year. I've already bought quite a bit
online and the rest will either be cash gifts or one of those pre-loaded
Visa/MC from my credit union which is still solvent.

I have avoided malls like the plague for years so this will be no big loss
to me personally. OTOH, my sister in law will suffer severe withdrawal.

CNN had a short blurb about this a few days ago. I wasn't paying real close
attention but IIRC, expected losses to consumers would be at about $100
million this year. I don't remember the "expert" they had on with this
prediction but I was surprised to learn that even in good times something

You and Steven both. I like turkey. Once or twice a year anyway. I tried
Dimitri's 17 steps one year. Woke up the next morning and the turkey was
incinerated.

Wayne, it was many years after you were in Memphis but the Mall of Memphis
was the largest shopping mall they ever had. It even had an indoor ice
skating rink. Dorothy Hamill performed on that rink when the mall opened !
It was two levels and had tons of stores. That may not sound like much to

I have 5 or 6 coffee grinders. I may have paid original price for 1
but the others I got a yard sales and thrift shops for less than $3.
These I use for herbs and spices.
I have a 1960's KitchenAid coffee mill that is used daily for coffee.
