Southern Pecan flavored coffee. Four months ago I used to say, I am not old enough to drink coffee. In ATL Bread, around Christmas time, I took an open minded swig of Yvette's Vanilla Nut cup of joe. I have been on a binge ever since. Crazy, huh?I was at a Joe Muggs http://www.joemuggs.com/ this weekend (Books-A-Million). I always talk coffee with people at coffee shops. My coffee IQ is truly so low for a rapidly aging baby boomer. What do you like? What's good? What should I have? I have a lot of catching up to do!
I am not sure where all this fits. If we think out loud together maybe there are multiple applications. One of the Joe Muggs' coffees of the day was Southern Pecan. I ask the girl at the counter how it tasted. She said, how should I know? I don't drink coffee. She continued, I just poured out the Southern Pecan too, because it is almost quitting time.
I didn't get mad at the Joe Muggs girl. I was entertained by her response. I came back the next day and bought a pound. Wow! I discovered Southern Pecan without her. What a great discovery! Excuse me, Yvette has a pot on right now.
Ahh yes! My new obsession within an obsession. Joe Muggs' Southern Pecan. Could I share a cup with you?
Where do I go from here? One simple lesson for now: I need to be drinking what I am selling. I need great passion for everyone else to drink what I am drinking, too. More to come.

Joe Muggs is good stuff!!! I broke my coffee sabbatical with a great cup of coffee from there!
I'm a Starbucks junkie myself. I can from Dallas where I passed about 12 on my way to work. I'll have to give the Southern Pecan and Joe Muggs a try. I love how you can make an analogy about drinking coffee relate to our walk with Christ. Thanks for thinking outside the box and sharing.
