I will not review last year from when I apparently got caught up in coffee adventures or coffee experiments 'n just didn't make it back to blogging about it at all?!
So starting again I will post a few pics of last year's coffee beans 'n coffees 'n coffeesleeves from when I forgot my Keepcups 'n then pics of those Keepcups or waterbottles or coffeemugs too - which is on my List of What I Should Be Doing This Year... remembering my various size Keepcups, the espresso tiny one being my all time Fav?!
And after I've been all over Colorado Springs, there is still Denver to venture over to 'n before we know it another Caffeine Crawl will be here in CO--Yay?! (as I write am missing the one in Cali 'n next month will be the one in Htown, where I moved from... ) It's all I can do not to hop a plane 'n make it a year of going to Caffeine Crawls around the country hah?! sigh....
and there were the #beans, the lovely lovely #coffeebeans 'n #coffeebags love me some #labels too (that Marketing Major in me from way back, who wanted to go into Advertising, can't 'not' be attracted by labels, especially coffee labels?!)

and some of the #coffeecups from when forgot the Keepcups 'n there will be less of these this year for sure (think I've forgotten my Keepcups once so far, with them in the dishdrainer prob?!)
many of these from the local coffeeshops 'n coffeeroasters have bags for above, but from a chain in Castle Rock DazBog which I'd rather go to Lost Coffee 'n their 2 shops in Castle Rock instead tho don't have a cup from them in this lot...
opps, plus a coffee cup from #copperkettlecoffee that only popsup 'n this one prob from a Welcome Fellow event where they popped up - tho during the Caffeine Crawl Colorado Springs they popped up in Brooklyn on Boulder during the day (when of course in the evenings - Wed thru Sat's - there is Prohibition style gin classic cocktails from the local gin distiller--Lee Sprits?!)
there's one went to Denver stop in to #SessionCoffee which had just opened 'n will go back again (their gf poptarts were ridiculously big 'n yummy too?!)
not to forget the 2 coffeeshops in #ColoradoSprings that did the promotion event for Gilmore Girls whose cups had quotes from the TV show on them on the one side 'n snap chat logos on the other side that did not work on my phone nor a barista's phone I talked into trying for me along with my niece I text so don't know what was wrong with that (too many people on at the same time for the day or what?!) plus there was 1 more coffeeshop in town going along that I didn't know about at the time so missed them, but made it to StoryCoffee 'n UrbanSteam for my free fun cups while supplies lasted for the 2nd season of Gilmore Girls 'n their fav local coffeeshop guy with the attitude hah?! (now maybe I should go watch more than a half a show this season...)
one more I didn't get a bag of beans from yet #InertiaCoffee who I'd met at the event in Castle Rock on their Fair Grounds, but now they have a lil shop open - which they've moved their roaster into 'n have just started FacebookLive before going to a Podcast I think it is (not to forget their e-mails of Coffee Facts for the Day/Week is it, that has been a refresher in coffee education... like do you refrigerate your beans or use them as fertilizer etc....)
and twas some fun when I did the best of from last year in Colorado Springs, CO 'n the year before in The Woodlands, TX (just north of Houston, TX) over on #ig #insta #instagram therre was lots 'n lots of coffee hah?! so that trend will continue this year fo sure!!
end of last year I recycled early 'n so the #coffeesleeves went into the recycle bin Nov/Dec maybe,
but all the fond memories from the year, from the coffees, the coffeeshops, the beans... sigh... 'n all the ones to come this year... eee...
Yes, it is time to do just this #getshitdone 'n thanks to #WelcomeFellow can do just that?!
hmm... now this reminds me I have not only a set of Fav FAB Keepcups but also #coffeemugs 'n now must go find them, then I'll be done 'n ready for the day of Let's Go Get Some Coffee Somewheres!!
and some of the Top Fav FAB #CoffeeMugs in my lesser collection, as we've moved 'n moved 'n moved I've had to recycle them on--but these still a few I will never let go?!
#buildingthreecoffee #bldg3coffee #LoyalCoffee #loyalaf #htown #flyhighlittlebunny front 'n flipside #CaffeineHell (from a Fav FAB Silver Jewelry shop in Houston, TX - that last time I lived there they're still there 'n one very lucky special year from me they made these mugs... I shoulda got a dozen of 'em?!) pottery mug from Venezuelan potters up in the mountains near Puerta la Cruz where lots of creatives lived 'n worked #TaiPotters (since all the chaos in the country continues I have lost touch with them as well as the expats that were there when I was there 'n the Spanish English students that out family knew there... but all the moves since then 'n still have 2 of their mugs!!)
and the #Keepcups collection with that fav lil espresso machiatto size one caught out in the wild
plus one more from #LoyalCoffee #loyalaf a #sticker on the best place for it a blue #SwellBottle
one more thing I'll be waiting for, that didn't show up in time for the holidays last year - but they were nice enough to send out postcards to cleverly "Celebrate the Wait" from the GIR Team LoveIt!
So my #Evercup by #Voltaire from their #Kickstarter fundraiser is going to show up in this New Year sometime 'n I think it's worth waiting for (got my Keepcups to keep me going until I can try this new travel cup in town for my coffee while road tripping or whatever else comes my way?!)
Onward into 2017 where there will be drinking of good coffees, mostly espressos, 'n coffee cuppings, coffeeshops, coffeebeans, coffee roasters, a Caffeine Crawl (maybe I can squeeze in more than 2 routes this year too) 'n a Coffee Competition to follow next month starting in Austin, TX (I'll be watching it all livestreaming online I'm hoping, fingers crossed--got some local coffee peeps going so must cheer them on!!) Go Colorado Springs Coffee Community!!!!
Peace, Love, Coffee!!!
