Coffee
Posts here are devoted to the simple joy of coffee—whether it’s a nitro oat latte in Fargo or a tasting flight during a road trip. I share notes on cafés visited, beans tried and the small moments that make each cup memorable.
Saturday morning at the lake. Delicious coffee. Wooden wick candle. Writing on my blog. Preparing the Weekly Thing. Lots of hygge. Good stuff.
Just tried out the new photo collections feature on micro.blog and it is pretty great. I created a page of coffee photos. ☕️
This is a fun and new way to index into the photos that I have posted. I like it.
My coffee subscription from Pair Cupworks consistently brings me compelling and unique beans. This Peanut & Dark Chocolate from Laos by the Bolaven Plateau Coffee Producers Cooperative is great. It may be my first coffee from Asia. ☕️
While making our way to a coffee shop in Lincoln Park we ran across Oz Park in Chicago. It was a fun discovery. We didn’t have time to find the Lion though.
Stop at Fika Coffee, my favorite coffee shop on the North Shore, on our way to Grand Marais this morning.
Good morning! September is starting with a chill in the air.
Shopping via Terminal
My cousin Quinn had mentioned this place that sold coffee via the Terminal using ssh but I hadn’t remembered to check it out. He recently built his own terminal-based task tracker and mentioned terminal.shop again so I gave it a try.
Clearly the goal here is to appeal to the techies and they are doing it great. They also did a good job with curses support as I tested resizing the window and everything was nicely responsive.
You start in the shopping experience. Who needs pictures? I know what coffee beans look like…
The FAQ page…
And I even placed an order. The email I got said it was order #000, and made sure to indicate it was zero-indexed. 🤣
We’ll see how the coffee tastes! If you want to order some coffee of your own, just type ssh terminal.shop in your terminal.
Great cappuccino at Cafe le Coco in Kilkenny.
Enjoying a flat white from Coffeewerk + Press in Galway. Love the graphics on their cups. Delicious coffee.
Nice cappuccino from Irish Crafts this morning.
