You will need the following:
1.Turkish Coffee Pot
2.H2O or Water
3.Coffee that has been ground to a fine powder
Optional: Sugar or whip cream
So, how to make coffee?
Off the heat, add 5 teaspoon of coffee to the remaining water in the coffee pot. Stir to dissolve the coffee.
Return to heat and bring to a simmer. The coffee will bubble and foam a little.
Right after the foam rises up, remove from heat.
Pour 1/2 cup reserved water back into the coffee pot.
Let the coffee rest a few extra moments, for the grounds to settle to the bottom.
Pour coffee into cups,let the coffee settle and enjoy!
What to do with ground coffee?
Use for your hands:
1.Scoop out a small amount of the mixture and rub it into your hands. Rinse well.
2. You can use for your garbage – Fill up an old pair of pantyhose with some dry coffee grounds, and hang the mixture on the inside of your trash can lid.
3. Add coffee grounds to houseplants to give them a boost, mixing it into the soil. Coffee grounds are high in nitrogen, and are great for houseplants.
4.You can use Turkish coffee for Great Grandma’s Famous Jimmy Cake Great Grandma’s Famous Jimmy Cake

Miss America and the best coffee cake called Grandma’s Famous Jimmy Cake. Have you heard about this cake…Don’t worry I am not judging if you haven’t. After all food blogging is here for you…so you can learn and share.
Here she comes – 1989. Miss America!
And she comes with lawsuit …Yes, that is correct! Gretchen Carlson filed the lawsuit against her boss, one of the most powerful man,
an American television executive Roger Ailes.
She says Ailes repeatedly made advances toward her, calling her “sexy”, asking for a sexual relationship during a meeting in his office and so on….
Because she says “NO”…long story short her contract was not renewed.
So, my dear readers why I am bringing this story to you?
Because, Gretchen Carlson courage is inspiring.
So many victims of sexual harassment are intimidated into staying silent.
Well, this Miss America was not. She stood her ground and also made her own statement.
“I have strived to empower women and girls throughout my entire career. Although this was a difficult step to take, I had to stand up for myself and speak out for all women and the next generation of women in the workplace.”
Dear my readers, please find her twitter account and support her.
And just for her I am going to make my new favorite cake, Great Grandma’s Famous Jimmy Cake.
