So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

The Coffee I Can't Stop Thinking About

By Alan Curtis

I live in New York, home to some of the best food in the world. The same can be said about coffee too. There are so many great makers of coffee in this city that it's sometimes hard to keep up with them all.

Not too long ago, I discovered what has quickly become my favorite source for coffee in the city. While this may sound like a bit of a stretch, I mean it when I say that this could very well be the best cup of coffee in the entire city.

While Stumptown Coffee Roasters was formerly a coffee maker with a presence limited to the Pacific Northwest, the a personal move by the founder to the East coast has led to a New York presence.

It seems that everything on the menu may very well be great. I've heard others say this, and the theory has proved true thus far. The coffee is higher grade than anything you'll find at Starbucks or Dunkin' Donuts, and it's hard for me to go back to those after trying Stumptown's roast.

You'd be surprised to know that Stumptown coffee doesn't really cost any more than you'd pay at a major chain, which happens to be a great thing. The atmosphere, though it lacks seating in this particular location, also seems to be one entirely based around the quality of the coffee.

I'm not alone when I say that this is the best coffee I've ever had. The chain has won numerous awards, and those who've tried it seem to be just as hooked as I am.

Seattle residents are going as far as saying that Stumptown has the best coffee in their city. When a coffee chain is winning the praise of drinkers in a huge coffee city like Seattle, I think the praise speaks for itself.

Make it a point to get to a Stumptown if you live in a city with a location. While there aren't many of them, it's worth the small trip if it requires a few extra minutes of your time.
