Wonderfully warm overnight, windows really open fantastic fan running and we both had a great sleep. First thing was to fill our new coffee pot with water and perk up a full 12 cups of this liquid gold. Oh yeah , the new perk does an amazing job. I use individual packages of coffee like I used in my restaurant, always fresh and no measuring, I buy at a wholesale place here but similar bags can be purchased at Costco, Sam's Club, Tim Hortons etc.Then I headed down to Pettigrew's Garage for 8 am hopping to get our car looked at. Soon as pulled in looked at the parking lot and thought not today. They are very busy there as usual. Like a good restaurant they will be busy If they do good work , and they do. No rush for the car we will try another day.

Where have we been this Summer ?
Nice job on the car it does look good for it's age. Sunsets are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThanks JO it treats us well and was to to get cleaned up again, after winter in the desert.
DeleteAnother nice detailed car ready for the show-n-shine. You had another great day
ReplyDeleteThanks Jeff, it still cleans up pretty good.and it sure was a wonderful day.
DeleteGlad that the new coffee pot works great. Neat Idea for the filters, like you say, the grounds stay fresh that way. Good job on the car, it looks great. Too bad you couldn't get it into the garage. Can't you make an appointment? Love yoursunset shots.
ReplyDeleteThe coffee pot is nice and the filters I have been using for years. The portions if coffee do stay fresh a long time.
DeleteIt was a perfect day to clean up the car. I sort of had an appointment but we are here for another week and retired. Dale treats us well usually on short notice, I stop in the garage every morning anyway
It was a lovely day. Not so humid here and a lovely 75F. perfect.
ReplyDeleteI'm with Contessa, why not make an appointment and get 'er done. :)
The old car looks good all spiffed up.
I like the idea of the coffee bags, I hated dealing with grounds for our camp perculator.
It was a great day, warmer here but quite comfy in the shade. We could have had an appointment for Thursday morning(today at 8 am, but Suzie had to be in Stratford for 7:30 . No rush most of his customers are working people and he is very busy as summer approaches like every year. We here for another week anyway.
DeleteThe coffee bags and filters work great no muss no fuss.
You certainly inspired me yesterday! We stopped at O Reilys and got the spray on wax..amazing and easy peasy! Got the stuff for shining up the black plastic too and it works really well! Thank you. Now today to finish up the second car haha. Can't do without those coffee filters anymore! Can't beat a lifetime warranty on that sprayer! Beautiful sunset pics!
ReplyDeleteThe spray on wax is so easy to use, and does a great job. And shining g the plastic makes it all look like new again.My next project will be to motorhome, though that will take a few day. Gotta love the coffee filters. And a lifetime warranty sure is nice.
DeleteI love the sprayer. The Sheriff used one with just oil for the grill. Boy did that make things easier!! And no mess from spilled oil. You're killing me with all that car waxing. Now I have to go find some and wax my Jeep, which I don't think has been done since I bought it!!!
ReplyDeleteWe do love this spray as well, does what we want it too do, mostly for our salads, perfect.
DeleteWaxing your jeep will keep you busy and look nice when it is all done as well.
I didn't know you could get coffee filters for those coffee pots but then again I never thought about using a filter ... what a great idea!
ReplyDeleteI found the filters for our perk many years ago, but became hard to find. So I searched for more and found them at Wegmans in Niagara falls NY. We go through there once a year and stock up. Or can order on line., They work wonderful no more coffee grounds in you coffee.
DeleteThis is the first time I have ever heard of an oil and vinegar sprayer. Love that it comes with a lifetime guarantee.
ReplyDeleteSee what you went and did? Inspired many readers to wax their cars...might even try to do that to my dad's old car that really needs it. Your car looks good!
I love this sprayer works wonderful for our salads.
DeleteKeeping our vehicles is always what I like to do. Glad they can do that as well.
Maybe do your Dad's car as well.
Now I like those sunset shots!
ReplyDeleteThanks Stew they were wonderful I do like to share.
