ItalianScallion, what have you done?
10So today a box arrived. I’ve got chronic Primenesia, so I wasn’t sure what was in the box. It was a lovely package from @italianscallion. It was loaded with treats, for both me and Luna Boona from Altoona. She knew immediately there was something for her.
There was also a wonderful handwritten note and a beautiful coin, and if I ever find a genie in a bottle, one of my wishes would be for legible handwriting. Yours is amazing. Mine is shit
Thank you for the thoughtful, unexpected box.
Also, the 7th rule of the Secret-Not-So-Secret coffee club is that reciprocity is frowned upon
But, thank you very much. It was a wonderful surprise and made my day.
Be good.

@capnjb I’m glad you liked it. It wasn’t a reciprocal gift, but rather to thank Luna for being such a Very Good Goat. Who was a Good Goat? You were, Luna! Yes you were! And, well, you’re a Very Good Owner, so you deserved some treats too!
@ItalianScallion Well, being honest, she really wasn’t. But August was busy. But thank you very much. It was a wonderful surprise today
And very much appreciated. If you liked the coffee I know a guy who can get you some more 
@capnjb If it’s the coffee guy I’m thinking of, he’s a real stand-up guy. I’d take him up on his offer, but I have at least part of five different pounds of coffee that are open right now–Equator Jaguar Espresso, Peet’s Ethiopia Refisa Station, Atomic Coffee Roasters House Blend (from a latte art course at their roastery), Equator Eye of the Tiger Decaf Espresso, and Peet’s Major Dickason’s Decaf–so I have to use those up before getting any more!
@ItalianScallion Give me a heads up if your supplies start to get thin. This is perfect coffee roasting weather right now
Hee hee !
@Kyeh @ItalianScallion Here’s the full image; it’s pretty cool!
@ItalianScallion @MrGoodGuy
Awfully cute!
@Kyeh @MrGoodGuy WHAT HAVE I DONE?!?!
@ItalianScallion @MrGoodGuy Ruined dinner, apparently! But you look so contrite, how can they stay mad?
@ItalianScallion @Kyeh @MrGoodGuy Looks like a pasta drop.

@macromeh
Coffee club?
@edsa Well, it’s a Secret-Not-So-Secret club
You just need to know the secret handshake. 
And there are only two rules:
Rule #1: I don’t like the post office so it will ship on a day where I don’t feel like hating the post office. You will get it when you get it.
Rule #7 Reciprocity is frowned upon.
And yes, there is a gap there in there. 1) for safety and B There will likely be more different rules in the future
Also, there is no secret handshake (although that should become a thing). Just send me a whisper with where to send it and if you have a grinder. I can send whole beans or ground. I roast several times a week.
Just remember Rule #1. It took almost two years to get @Star2236 her coffee… lol.
But I’ve gotten more efficient recently
Now I almost wish I did coffee. It sounds fun!
@xobzoo I could send some and you could try it with friends if you’d like.
Freshly roasted coffee is almost sweet. Not bitter like the stuff you might find on the store shelf. Let me know
