The coffee beans can be ground in the old coffee grinder, boiled on the stove or prepared in a press pot or espresso pot. Firewood has to be carried, and both the oven and the hearth are fired up for warmth and comfort. This is how to fill your vacation days with meaningful and down-to-earth chores.
