All Is Now Right With My World

My current favorite coffee is back. There is a coffee shop in Lafayette called Murky Waters, and besides being just a neat little place they also happen to have a coffee blend called Foglifter. I had tried several different coffees when I moved up here, but Foglifter is one of the best coffees I've had anywhere in the world. Rich, lots of flavor, and not bitter even as strong as I brew it (6 scoops to a 10 cup pot, maybe a bit more).

A couple of weeks ago, I was running out at home and at work so dropped by to get more. Murky Waters was closed, and I was not sure it would reopen. I was not a happy wolf. Some checking revealed that it had been sold, but being the cautious type that I am, I also was sending messages out that I would buy all the Foglifter left in the store.

Great News: Murky Waters is back open with a new owner, a number of improvements, and the same great selection of good coffees and teas. They have plans, neat plans, and I wish them well. Work now has a fresh pound of ground, The Lair now has a fresh pound of ground, and I am putting away a pound of whole bean Foglifter as well.

If you are in the area, give them a try. Don't forget the homemade biscotti and other treats as well. Recommended.

I truly appreciate what a relief that is! Very happy for you.

I was introduced to a grocery store up here that has about the best coffee I've had and I just brewed my last cup this morning. I'll be making a run myself this weekend.

Good coffee to start your day....most important.

I'm not that picky on my coffee... in fact I rarely drink it.

I used to be a generic coffee drinker. Then as a workplace perk we switched to Starbucks as our vendor. It's heaven, we have about twenty varieties to choose from and I'm constantly bugging the delivery guy to leave a couple of bag in a variety we haven’t tried yet. Makes the day interesting. You haven’t posted on you fidel bite. How’s it looking? Hope your well.

Being my usual contradictory self, I love the smell of fresh ground coffee, but can't stand the taste of coffee in any form. Most people just think I'm weird, so go ahead, join in.
