    I love this idea so much that I'm totally doing this to my jeans - right now - while I'm still wearing them.

    Fridays are my favorite time of the week, just want you to know that. Such funny moments from this weeks episode...my fav's "MMM, Chocolate Ripple", "I wouldnt drink that if I were you" and the tips for weathering the jeans were brilliant and simple. My mom used to run over boxes of Capn Crunch with her car to pulverize it for use w/ breading chicken, boy was it tasty!!! Another great episode Rob & Corinne!

    I just finished making five litres of coffee with half a kilo of coffee powder. Put jeans in. Hopefully they will come out better then they went in.

    Thanks for the idea guys!

    If you didnt already try espresso, try some black tea. That'll definitely get em to where you want em. you can buy 100 black tea bags for about a buck ! Good luck
