Oakland's Peerless Coffee is still going strong

Peerless' cupping room, in fact, might be the most charming around, with the same furniture that John Vukasinovich used decades ago lining its cramped quarters, along with a shiny new spittoon - essential for cupping.

"We thought for hygienic purposes, we should retire the old one," jokes George Jr.

Perhaps it will last into the next generation - there's already a fourth in the wings. Will Kristina's oldest son, 7-year-old John William, become the family's next great cupper?

"I hope," George Jr. says with smile. "Bring him on."

When George Vukasin Sr. was approached by prospective buyers more than a decade ago, he asked his suitors why they wanted to purchase his family-run Peerless Coffee & Tea business.

Because you're too old, Vukasin was told.

"And they were right. They'd done their homework," the 76-year-old patriarch concedes. "But they didn't know that these two were coming into the business," he says, pointing at his oldest daughter, Kristina, and his son, George Jr.

Peerless celebrated its 85th anniversary last month, solidifying its status as one of the Bay Area's oldest - if least known - specialty coffee companies.

For them, crafting the perfect cup of coffee is both a science and an art. Even beans from the same region can vary wildly, as different elevations lead to different densities which lead to different roasting preferences.

And it's that winelike blending and appreciation that has top Bay Area restaurateurs swearing by Peerless.

Homemade furniture polish

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 14:22:33 GMT

clipped by: disenchantedcitizen
clipper's remarks: I started replacing household cleansers with homemade stuff a few months ago and don’t plan on going back to the chemical soup that we have been led to believe we simply must have.

To clean windows and countertops use water, vinegar, and dish detergent, for example.

I just used this recipe for furniture polish yesterday and it really works.

More DIY tips can be found at the site as well as at Tipnut http://tipnut.com/ and TURI http://www.turi.org/turi_lab/do_it_yourself_home_made_household_cleaner_recipes

I believe the fewer chemicals we use in our everyday life the better off we are.

I don't use many store-purchased products to do my cleaning. I always end up with terrible migraines or my lungs hurt from breathing in the cleaning product. When I take the time and effort to make my own cleaning products, life suddenly gets much better and healthier, at least in the cleaning department.

Baking soda, lemons, vinegar, and salt are four items that can basically clean everything in your house, from countertops to clothing. I love making homemade cleaning wipes, knowing that when I use them, I will not suffer the consequences of cleaning. I also like to make my own homemade furniture polish, since, in my opinion, I get a better clean and a better shine with homemade polish.

Anytime you want to polish your furniture, you should make a new batch, as the olive oil may become rancid if you only polish your furniture once a month.

Columbus, Ohio Home Loans …. What not to do when you are in contract!

You have found your dream house. You are pre-approved. Your contract has been accepted. Your mortgage papers are in order. All seems well, you are on your way to getting the house you always wanted. Don’t make the following mistakes many homebuyers make which can destroy a loan approval.

• DO NOT Change Jobs … especially going from salary to commission
• DO NOT Co-sing a loan for anyone for any reason
• DO NOT Change bank accounts or make any large deposits
• DO NOT Buy furniture on credit … 12 months same as cash counts
• DO NOT Try to hide any bills or liabilities from your loan application
• DO NOT Spend your down payment money
• DO NOT Buy a car or any other big ticket item

Some of these may seem simple but any one of these “DO NOT’s” could mess up your purchase. Keep these facts in mind when you are looking for your home loan in Columbus or Central Ohio.

clipper's remarks: bed bugs solutions

Clip Source: www.articledashboard.com

Why people are looking to bed bugs solutions only when it’s too late? Because they are unaware of the symptoms until they develop severe allergies. In order to know how to get rid of bed bugs you must learn first the life and behavior of them. Those insect are almost the tiniest bugs in the world. Their size is estimated on 5 micro millimeter and they usually habitat in moist warm areas like your bed, closets, carpets and sometime even inside wood furniture. The problem is that they come in big numbers, one female bug can lay more than 300 eggs, so the numbers are huge and get up to several millions just under you pillow.
