I don’t impress easily, y’all know that. I was impressed, however, to read in the coffee news that Peet’s Coffee put up the first coffee roasting facility in the United States to get Leed’s Certification.
This is one “green” certification that is not that easy to get. Peet’s got it because they built the facility […]

I don’t know if you remember the review I did on Honor Grounds coffee. The company donates to veteran’s organizations and is very involved with military support.
Whatever your opinion may be on war, veterans are important people. I should know, Marc and are both veterans. We spend a lot of time at the VA hospital […]

I hope your week has been awesome!
We have been having temperatures in the 100s and more scheduled for next week. I think it was 103 today.
You have to love these bog, old houses though. Seriously, even without the air conditioning the design creates great circulation and it rarely gets above 85 in here. Very do-able […]

Well guys, it has happened. The Starbucks where Marc and I go is closing. There are no other coffee places here, except another Starbucks with crappy service so I guess our coffee dates are about to take on a new look..I am not sure what thought.

Starting today at nine a.m. Pacific time (noon Eastern), Starbucks will be introducing its new roast, Pikes Place.
The new coffee is named after the location of the first store that Starbucks opened in 1971, and will be the first Starbucks coffee advertise being ethically traded and sourced.

Today it is cold and rainy and dreary…and did I say cold? A couple of days ago the thermometer was pushing 75 and today it is in the low 40s with a drizzle.
But at least I have my coffee! So, surf with me. It’ll be fun. I am a […]

Every once in awhile I like to pull out a copy of Chicken Soup for the Soul, have a good read and remind myself that even when I think life is being on the unfair side, ultimately I am a romantic, and an optimist and the good guys always wear the white hats…and they always […]
