And since today is the Oscar Day, please watch the movie “Dead poets society”. It is incredibly inspired movie and it is Robin Williams best role.

You will cry, you will laugh and it will help you to learn to appreciate writing, literature, and symbolism.

“Sucking the marrow out of life doesn’t mean choking on the bone.”

“Just when you think you know something, you have to look at in another way.

Even though it may seem silly or wrong, you must try.”

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!
