How did you come up with your screen name ?

‎12-09-2018 02:55 PM

Growing up my dad always told me that coffee came from a nut tree just like walnuts. Hence coffee came from Coffee Nut trees.

 

After all these years the phrase still sticks with me.  Instead of Coffee Beans, I call them Coffee Nuts.

 

What's the meaning behind yours ?

No meaning, just my first name and first and last letters of my very long, very Polish name.

@CoffeeNut   No real back story.  Combination of some letters from one of my names and one of my favorite numbers.

One of my names and maiden name. Husband's name is a tree. I love our 'nature' names. We have some special lake and tree artwork in our home.

Mine was derived from a combination of one of our female Sheltie dogs named Sassy and then our boat name was christened Sassea.  Hence sassealassea was born.
