Cofee and Parents

This is just a short, brief blog.

Tonight we are impatiently waiting for my parents to arrive. They are on a train somewhere in Montana, fighting through the snowy weather and already 11 hours behind schedule. They are joining us for Christmas this year and we are all SO EXCITED we can hardly stand it!!

We are also cupping... or "professionally" taste-testing coffee blends, as we get ready to sell them online. It's a very unique process and experience! And tons of fun:o). Our house smells amazingly good right now, and I'm enjoying the chance to experience the very prominent differences between coffee beans. So far my favorite is the Sumatran. Rich, dark and bold, but not burnt. (although brewed, I prefer the Porto Rican with it's smooth nutty taste:o)
