om shanti

the delightful and underappreciated chipper harris of coffeekids sent me a wonderful website: go there now.

since we here in new york are enduring this wacky blizzard, i went to yoga early, to the class given by a friend of mine as her final exam to become a yoga teacher. it was a mellow class with long savasana and meditation period at the end.

but walking home from yoga people was gruesome in the needly sleet mixed with fluffy snow, driving wind, and slush. ugh.

thus i dug deep into my freezer and found a quarter pound of gillies kona, which i believe is the kona star.

a cafetiére (a.k.a. press pot) of this on such a day is a fine thing. long-time readers know i am not a cold-weather person at all, and i would gladly accept a trip to "origin" (as the coffee trade calls the tropical places where coffee is grown) right about, oh, yesterday. . .

i love this coffee, and i could wax poetic about it for a while. let me just say, in keeping with the weather, it is as lovely as a snow angel made in bright, clean snow.
