Amazon.com: Books: The Golden Gizmo (Vintage Crime/Black Lizard) (#)
„Like most of Jim Thompson's novels, the story turns on a series of criminal events. Toddy Kent is a man with the "golden gizmo" -- a psychic sense that can lead him to riches just as readily as to disaster. This book is textured with curiosities -- Teddy is married to a woman who drives him mad; a gold buyer for a reputable dealer, he stumbles into a steady supply of the highest grade gold and finds himself pursued by a ruthless, chinless man, a beautiful young woman, and a blood-thirsty dog that can talk and sings hymns. Most other writers would see the story fall around their ears, but Thompson deftly, gleefully pulls it off!“

„you mentioned seattle's best (now owned by starbucks...eeek)- their best-selling drink is a Naughty Toddy, Gloria Jean's is a Hotty Toddy- all use Toddy's process. i've asked managers at both places, and they use a medium roast, coarse grind- sorta like what you would use in an old fashioned percolator. hope this helps.“

A Coffee Lover's Guide to Tea (INeedCoffee.com)
„The story still gives me nightmares. How Tea Is Made There are only 3 different types of tea: black, oolong, and green. Everyone thinks that herbal tea is tea, but it really isn't tea, just like chicory grounds aren't really coffee. All tea comes from the tea plant; Latin names of the species are Camellia thea, Thea sinensis or Camellia sinesis.“

„Tea and coffee. We hear the words together so often they seem a natural pair. But as you learn more about tea you see that both the beverage and the crop have their own, unique story, distinct from coffee.“
