While making breakfast this morning I thought, "you're right, Haloscan Commenters, Beverage Week can't end with just four postings and on such a down note." So how could I not make a tribute to the coffee I'm enjoying right now? There it is, Stumptown Coffee beans ground, french-pressed, and served in my Periodic Table of the Elements mug with sugar and half-and-half. And boy,is it good. Sometimes my little girl Allie helps with the process, using her button-pushing abilities to help grind the beans. Mmm, that smooth, rich flavor.

Beverage Week salutes STUMPTOWN COFFEE!
