Add to iTunes | Add to YouTube | Add to Google | RSS Feed Wirelesspacket asked me how I do my coffee at home. He spends too much going to buy his coffee every day, and doesn’t like the taste of “store bought” coffees. I was all too happy to show him how I use [...]
Alfred Peet: Roast in Peace
I intend for the title of this post to be humorous and reverent. Mr. Peet’s style brought a smile to my lips so many times that I only hope to pass that flavor along to the next coffee connoisseur. Via the official Peet’s Coffee & Tea blog comes word that Alfred H. Peet has passed [...]
Peets vs Starbucks
Jana seems like… someone who doesn’t deserve Peet’s coffee. Her review of the Redmond store through Judysbook was dated November 19, 2006 9:30 PM PST: I admit that I am a Starbucks fan, but really wanted to give Peets a try. The minute I walked in I knew it would not stack up against Starbucks. [...]

He always had good stuff, and the prices were affordable. I recall my like for his mocha java [presumably a blend [...]
I Spilled Coffee All Over My Computer!
Ugh. This week is not off to a very good start. Then again, it’s almost halfway finished now. I was just exchanging instant messages with my dad (who just got broadband this afternoon) – getting ready to help him through a few software issues. To clear my mind, I needed caffeine – so I reached [...]
Coffee Snobs
Dude. I just can’t stay off the juice! Last night, I was compelled to write about my experiences with the Tassimo machine (a wedding gift from Andru and Monica Edwards). Ponzi put it on our wish list – but I really wish the machine did more. Judging from the comments we’re getting, others do as [...]
