Got A New Inverter

No more truckstop coffee!! Yay!!

It's a 1000 watt-er but still, as long as I have my coffee, the good stuff, I can deal with whatever happens. Life is barely worth living without GOOD coffee!!

Inverter Went On Fritz, NO Coffee!! Noooooo!!

Yep, just about the worst thing that could happen to a trucker is to lose the coffee machine. Since the coffee maker is powered by the inverter (besides powering the micro, my laptop, etc.), it is an absolute catastrophe when the sucker goes south.

Alas, inverters only last a year and almost to the day, it lost its' mojo. *sigh*

We stopped in at Petro but they wanted a king's ransom for it, even using out points. So, we went on. Then we stopped at Mittens Truckstop and found the same one for $50 less!! Yahooo!!

Now, hubby has to put the thing in. We bought coffee this AM that was supposed to be Kona, but I'm the Queen of England if that was Kona. Wasn't a nice thing to do to us truckers, BTW.

Anywho, soonest we'll have coofee brewing in the cab!! Soooo glad!!

Ahhhhh, Had My First Coffee This Morn

First coffee of the morn is in the top five things of my life. I like Folgers, made just 'so'. Pilot has some good coffees too. I haven't tried the Ethiopian (sp?) yet, but it's on my to-do list. I hear some Kona may be making its' way into their stops. Wouldn't that be a treat??!!

Bad Truck Stop Food

Does it seem to anyone else that truck stop food is getting worse??

We just ate in the Flying J restaurant and it's one of the worst meals we've had there. Usually, Flying J is pretty good stuff but this?? Yikes!

My hubby's coffee was bad and my fish was dried out and tough. The alfredo was thin and not very tasty.

It's not just a Flying J thing, it's a lot of the truck stops nowadays. Ustabe, I liked truck stop food but maybe the management is trying to save money by holding back on the goodies but I can vote with my feet and buy food at Wally-world and chow down while in my truck. I need to lose weight anyway. Bah!!
