Third Place

I somehow pulled a miraculous third place finish at the SCRBC.



Details to come.

Had a great time, and really enjoyed watching everyone else's presentations.

It's a great thing for promoting specialty coffee in Texas, and I think we've made a little bit of progress. I hope to see a flourishing culture as the years progress and we have more of these competitions behind us.

Proverb of the day

Those who are never satisfied will satisfy the most.

What does it mean?

If you don't know, then I'm not sure I can help you, but I'll explain.

Those who are never satisfied with the quality of their products will consistently put out the best products. It's the constant struggle to improve. It's the reaching for a higher plane.

Once someone has decided that their work is good enough is exactly when it stops being good enough.

Confused? You shouldn't be.

There are a handful of people in our industry who fit this category, and it seems that they all know each other.

I wonder if other industries operate in a similar way.

The Super Secret Signature Drink

Is coming along nicely.

So far, Plan A is confirmed. This is good, because I never really had much of a Plan B or Plan C.

4oz. total volume. Good times.

Still working on tweaking a few details, but so far, so good.

I just thought I'd share the good news.
