We've got a lot of people in the coffee thread who don't know how to make coffee, I think.  Some people are intimidated, or don't know how, or think we coffee-making posters are master gods of the forums.  And we are, but you can be, too!  The first thing to do is post in the previous thread that YOU are making a new coffee thread.  First to post in the old thread wins!  We usually make it somewhere between 7am and whenever.  And a coffee thread goes thusly:
 
Step 1:  Post a greeting along with a picture of breakfast and/or coffee!
 
Yo, homies!
 
 
Cuy with rice, there!  Nutritious...
 
Step 2:  Talk about what you did in Wildstar (pictures optional/in character optional...)
 
Last night, Seegah wanted tah get out and about, so he went tah Thayd an' hung out at deh bah.  Aftah watchin' some kid get his *cupcake* stomped by deh Draken dat hangs out dere (for whatevah reason), I figahed dat I ought tah tune in tah Quantam State Radio.  Hung out dere a while, met two gentlemen dat oughta get dey heads examined.  Got invited'a get man-sandwiched between Mordesh an'  Granok ladies.  Dey said dey left 'cause dey was nasty, rude, an' insultin'.  Seegah ain't nevah dat lucky.  Dey's a sayin' 'bout oppahtunity somewheah.  Spent deh end o' deh night in deh Drunken Bouldah, hangin' wit my bruddah Travis in deh Blazin' Saddles.  Hadda great time!  Seegah like gettin' out an' meetin' people he ain't necessarily gonna cut deh heads off'a...
 
 
Step 3:  Talk about anything going on IRL and future Wildstar plans:
 
I won't be online anymore tonight until really late, most likely.  It's my mother's birthday, and earlier today the wife and I broke out our crates of Halloween decorations to start sprucing up our digs.  See, Halloween is big with us.  We got married on Halloween at a costume party.  It's both out favorite holiday.  We love dressing up in costume.  Normally, we have a big party every year, but finances aren't limitless, so I bought my wife a new Renaissance Faire dress but that means we'll just be doing a dinner.  If you live in the Columbus, Ohio area and want to come along, consider yourself invited.  We're showing up in-costume to a hibachi place in Polaris, God willing.  But yeah, I won't be on until we're home from my mother's party.
 
Tomorrow, I'll be on, though.  Hoping to have enough people on to throw together some kind of content run.  So I'll see you all either late tonight or tomorrow.  Don't break anything while I'm gone!
 
And that's it!  You've just made Morning Coffee.  Please remember to call out the date, that it's morning coffee, and to add a suitably vague title to the thread.
 
Warning:  Excessive use of off-topic chatter and a deficiency of random Wildstar game talk can result in the thread being moved to Off-Topic.  Let's try not to do that!
 
PS:  I heard the PTR is getting Megaservers dropped in, and the Defile build dropped in on top of it to make sure that works.  So excited that we're getting our stuff soon!  I can't wait to see what we're getting for megaservers and the new content drop!

Oh I missed you! At the Rose, Seeger. Tonight's another dance party starting at 5 pm at the Club Granite. Vilton's plot.
 
Be there or be square!

I'm not sure what I'll have for breakfast on the 14th, but this morning it was coffee and a bagel.   :D   No pic though, so just visual a coffee and plain bagel with cream cheese.
 
My Esper is kind of stalled in Malgrave at L44.  She seems to have ran out of important stuff to do and is reduces to performing menial Tasks.  She got her Expert Weaponsmith earlier this week.  Right now, she's going back and finishing up a lot of the recipes she skipped, gives her something to do until she hit's 50 and can start her post-graduate experiments.
 
A guildie gave her a TV.  She's too poor for a house, but she set it up in the hobo camp she calls home.  All she needs now is a secret admirer to pay the light bill and she can watch TV to unwind after a hard day.

			Good afternoon, coffee people! How's the science?Nothing interesting to mention about real life at the moment. I got my hands on the last few games of Touhou I was missing so I have been mostly playing that in-between rounds of WildStar. Had green tea and a croissant for breakfast...8 hours ago! Tsk.Mondo! Because Mondo! Why am I an Exile again?WildStar news? Hmm. I earned some more currency, dyes and completed the Southern Grimvault part of my State of Challenges report. That's about it. No point in doing adventures/dungeons except to practice...and practicing with PuGs is a big no-no. Whenever I log on, after dailies, I am just loitering around in Thayd. No more enthusiasm. All gone. Oh and I just can't seem to get into housing either. I have issues with investing currency into something I might not even use in the long run. I wish I could just build the whole thing until I am satisfied then pay for it. No wasted currency!System critical! Which system? ALL SYSTEMS!

Afternoon guys :)
 
Let's see, this morning I:
 
- Crafted a tanking-focused set of Epochos Heavy armor for ThaydFest prizes
- Sent some supplies to one of my guildies to make some Adventus pistols for ThaydFest prizes.
- Took some of my guildies on a War of the Wilds run (first time for three of them!)
- Took the same guildies (with one substitution) on a Siege of Tempest Refuge run.
- Logged off and ate breakfast at 10:30.  Sheesh.  Guess it's a late lunch today.
- Did the dishes and cleaned my kitchen a little bit
- Took the puppy out for a walk (now he's all tired again)
- Watched some stuff on Amazon Instant Video
 
...now it's about time to log in again :)  See ya'll in game, probably!

Hey, look on the bright side!  You've got a TV and a trailer.  That's lower middle class in Kansas!

Good day all,
 
Today I am still in Whitevale with Maahes. Leveled once so far, but had to take a break due to the daughter having a guest over. We have had the traditional pizza for dinner, and now I'm making ice cream.

^This is what I plan to make on Thanksgiving! 
 
OMG looks so lipsmacking good and delicious! Imagine, deep frying the turkey first, then wrapping with the bacon, deep fry little longer to cook the bacon and BAM!! A drooling, masterpiece with a triple bypass to top it off! LOL

Thanks for making coffee VicVanMeter. The information was pretty helpful as well. :)
 
So far I am joyfully leveling my Engineer in Auroria with a side dish of Random Practice BGs. I was trying to store as many armor pieces as I could (for future costumes) but I was running our of space so I had to make some tough choices.

Beckstir,
 
Never "Stuff a bird" with "bread products" UNLESS you know how to cook it through, can maintain juiciness, and not impart "bacteria to the stuffing".
 
Best practice is to not stuff a bird with "bread products" and to make the "stuffing" separate from the cooking process of the bird ( It actually speeds up the time to cook the bird and not produce a dry bird).
 
What you can stuff the bird with is "aromatics"  (e.g. cut onions, citrus fruit, and or fresh spices ).  These will give off heat and liquid to cook the inside of your bird and again, will speed up the cooking time.
 
The bacon wrap is "dicey" you need to make sure you don't burn the bacon with the long cook time for the turkey. So, what you want to do is not wrap with bacon until the final 2 hours on your bird ( unless you are using a smoker ). ;)
 
Hope this helps. :)
