7. The Essence of Coffee
As you open your eyes and reality sets in…a smile curves your lips—“it’s my day off” to enjoy as I
wish. You get up and go about your business only to realize that your steps are leading you to the
kitchen. As you turn the corner—the sweet aroma of coffee starts to entice your senses in
anticipation of your first cup of coffee. Your Black & Decker® Programmable Coffeemaker has
already started to brew the beans you grinded the night before and thanks to the Sneak-A-Cup®
feature—waiting for your first cup is a thing of the past. You try to wait but give in and grab your
first cup before brewing is done. As you taste the delectable brew you blended…you know without
a doubt that it doesn’t get any better than this.
There is nothing better than waking up to the sweet aroma of a fresh cup of coffee—done just the way
you like it and enjoying the experience every morning. With our Black & Decker® Programmable
Coffeemakers making your favorite cup of coffee is easy and convenient. For instance, the auto
brew feature lets you prepare your special blend the night before so that it brews right on time,
every time. As your coffee starts to brew—the optimal brewing temperature feature provides the
best possible flavor extraction from the grinds during brewing for a great tasting cup of coffee.
Once brewing is done, you can dress it up by topping it off—whip some heavy cream and add 2 to 3
tablespoons of orange marmalade to your cup of coffee. After all, it’s about starting your morning
off right and knowing that your next cup of coffee will be as good as your first.
9. Home Cooking Made Easy
Having a home cooked meal has never been more convenient. From breakfast to dinner our countertop ovens can make your life easier.
Now you can have the best of both worlds by preparing tasty, quick meals in no time—done just the way you like them.
Lets start with breakfast—for those days that you need a quick meal; you can toast two slides of bread. Then put the two slices side by
side in the oven, place a slice of ham on one and a slice of cheese on the other. Broil until cheese starts to melt, pull it out of the
oven and you have a warm ham and cheese sandwich. Grab a cup of coffee or juice and you are good to go.
Now for those days when you want to indulge yourself or your loved ones, you can make a spinach quiche. This is a terrific dish since
you can bake it on your day off and reheat it during the week for a fast nutritional meal.
For lunch, baking a pizza is easy and convenient or maybe some macaroni and cheese for the kids. Snacks are also a snap to make, and
they satisfy those cravings in between meals.
By the time dinner rolls around, the possibilities are endless. Bake a lasagna dish for the entire family or chicken for two. For Pork chops
with a Caribbean flavor check out this month’s recipe “Broiled Pork Chops with Peach Mango Salsa”. Compliment your main dish
with a mashed potatoes casserole or fresh vegetables.
Let’s not forget dessert—cookies is always a favorite not only with the kids but the adults as well. You can also get a little more
sophisticated and make some apple bread pudding or a pecan pie.
No matter what your favorite dish is and with so many options to choose from—we can help you make it a meal worth having in the
company of your loved ones.
Our Black & Decker ovens are designed with you in mind—making your life easier while meeting your needs. We have different sizes
and shapes fit to complement your countertop space—read this month’s article on the “Perfect Broil™ Convection Countertop
Oven (CTO4400B)” for more information on our ovens. The added features will give you the flexibility your lifestyle demands,
while the assortment of colors will match your kitchen décor.
10. Top it off with Roasted Peppers
Once you’ve had home made roasted peppers done in your countertop oven, you
will never go back to roasted peppers out of a can. The aroma that fills your
kitchen as the peppers start to roast will capture your senses and make your
mouth water. Their sweet flavor will not only compliment any meal but will
keep you coming back for more.
First things First
Preheat your countertop oven to 375˚F. As the oven preheats, line the bake pan with
aluminum foil. Wash 3 bell peppers (yellow, orange and red) and leave the
stems on. Space out the peppers on the bake pan and put the bake pan in the
countertop oven.
The Cooking Process
Turn the peppers by their stems every 20 minutes so that the peppers roast evenly
on all sides. Each time you turn the peppers, you will notice that their skin is
wrinkled and blistered with some browned and puffy spots.
Smell their Sweet Aroma
After about an hour the roasted peppers should be evenly browned and blistered
while collapsing in on themselves a bit. Place the baking pan on a cooling
rack and allow the peppers to cool down. Be patient and wait—for when the
peppers are still hot the liquid inside is even hotter.
Strip them Down
When the peppers have cooled in about 20 to 30 minutes, carefully peel them. On a
lipped cutting board, split the peppers in half and get rid of the liquid and
seeds inside. Cut them into strips and place them in a small dish.
Dress it Up!
You can serve the roasted peppers over crusty bread as an appetizer or top off your
favorite dish with them.

Because We Care
Cats are meticulous animals by nature, preferring to
use a clean litter box every single time. On
average, cats use the litter box 4 to 5 times a
day, usually when most owners are not at home
and are unable to keep the litter box clean.
When the litter box is dirty, the presence of waste
and the strong odor of ammonia may deter cats
from using their litter box, making it necessary
for them to go elsewhere. This is known as
inappropriate elimination and is one of the most
common reasons why cats end up in shelters.
To resolve this challenging problem, the LitterMaid®
product team designed a line of automatic, self-
cleaning litter boxes that are odor free and
clean themselves routinely after each use. This
eliminates the tedious task of manual scooping
and daily maintenance that a regular litter box
requires.
Promoting a healthy environment for cats and their
owners is what we are all about.
