From someone's website

There's always something new to learn! According to the Farmer's Almanac, your coffee cup can help you predict the weather:

If the bubbles of coffee collect in the center of your cup, you can expect fair weather.
If they adhere to the cup, forming a ring, you should expect rain.
If they separate without assuming any fixed pattern, changeable weather should be on its way.

I don't think I'd ever noticed bubbles in my coffee cup, but when I read about it I started looking for them.  Sure enough,  there they were!  On  inclement days the bubbles headed for the sides of the cup, but on the nice days they did stay in the middle.

So, the coffee barometer worked.  But why?  The bubble's movement is caused by changes in humidity and air pressure.

Having my second for today.

Too many cups cause my stomach to crash.

  Is that usual for you, or are you still getting over the stomach flu?  :-\

It was more rare before, but now, after the flu, it will happen after three cups or so.

  Might be worth asking your doctor about this if it continues.  :apondering:

I'm sure things will even out, eventually. This is the short-term consequence of a nasty stomach bug.

Perfectly logical. The coffee needs to be relatively hot for that to work well, though.

Yesterday I had about six cups I think, with no effect at all.
Today I did not dare drinking a cup in the afternoon, I knew it would make me tremble like a jackhammer.

Did that for a while, but then went back to hand dripping.

Had one big cup.
Would like another.
That requires grinding beans first.
Feeling lazy.

"Honey, will you grind me...."


:10 minutes later:
Thanks for that, but I meant coffee.
