buying deruta

i did it. i just caved in and bought 4 deruta cappucino cups.

i love the way coffee looks in them, and their thick walls do hold the heat well. it brings back such pleasant memories of having breakfast by the pool on capri at the villa brunella. . . .

but memory aside, here's a cool chicago article that mentions the trend toward iced milk-coffee drinks, and how they're picking up with the desireable young demographic.

we hope as this group ages a year or two, they will move to higher-quality, more authentic italian-style drinks.

it's a good omen for the future of coffee, and it mentions bccy pal doug zell's intelligentsia coffee!

finally, time grows short, dear readers! hurry and get your plane tickets to the great scaa homecoming event for consumer members.

it's this weekend; don't miss it if you're on the west coast! but we'll probably all be able to read about soon in the l.a. times. . .

since i can't go, i'm having my own personal coffee party this weekend with a few select friends to console myself. . .
