And also to hand select some green beans for a friend who would like to learn how to roast coffee in a pop corn popper! beware, this is how the passion starts! Can I get a witness! enjoy the day with the one's in your physical space and be a blessing. Love this quote from Mary anne Radmacher

It's the monkey's mug, and his mug...our new window clings for coffee shops and church cafes that proudly pour our extraordinary coffee to their raving fans. Reading Seth Godin's Tribes over an extraordinary cup of FTO Sumantra this afternoon. Love this from page 18 of the book " If you want to grow, you need to find customers who are willing to join you or believe in you or dontate to you or support you. And Guess What? The only customers will to do that are looking for something new. The growth comes from the change and light and noise." Let's make some noise! www.change.org www.shine.fm

Good Morning Moon Monkey Junkies~
Whooo recovering from watching the 2009 US Barista Championships from Portland Oregon from the comfort of my living room and the convenience of ustreamtv. Winner of the 2009 US Barista Championships, Michael Phillips from Intelligensia, Chicago! Nice! After 5 hours of watching, blogging, writing, brainstorming. I headed out to my personal coffee lab, a.k.a. the roaster, to create a new blend of extraordinary FTO espresso blend Ethiopian Harrar & Sumantra. Love it. Tried to test my social network skills by tweeting and offered first (5) tweets a few pound to try. No tweets. No name just yet. I will have to rely on my Moon Monkey Junkies to grind, press and tamp it into the cup and tell me the blend is a keeper. Life is for celebrating. Givelovecoffee.org.
