Double Hockey Sticks
Oh no… I just thought of something. Where the HELL am I going to get coffee when I'm in Iowa?! I believe I can tolerate the stink-ass selection that Des Moines can offer, but what about when I go to the rural township where Gretchen grew up?! Am I doomed? Please, say it isn't so. Someone tell me that there's a place where I can go. I can't do this. I just can't. I'm afraid my mom will TRY (that's the operative word) to make coffee out of her machine at home. Ugh. I'd just as soon kiss a dead moose's butt – which would probably taste a little better. Well, y'all better be prepared to see some relatively crabby entries here in the coming days. Not to say that I turn into a grouch when I don't get the right blend, but… ARGH! This totally sucks. No good Peet's for a week. Help. Send help.

My only suggestion. If Peet's has bags of there coffee beans or anything of the sort, buy that and bring it along with you. So, your coffee won't be THAT bad.

Yes, stock up on bags of Peet's coffee. That's probably your only option.

Three words for you, Chris: BUY IN BULK.
Otherwise, you are S. O. L.

There is only one place in Des Moines for you… Cup O' Kryptonite.
check it out at http://www.cupokryptonite.com
Ask Jake… he's been there. I told the owners of the place that they need to go get some heavy whipping cream to prepare for your arrival.

Buy your Mom a coffee press, and fed-ex the required amount of Peet's finest ahead of your arrival. Mom will thank you for the gift, and you will come off looking like son-of-the year!
