Raw coffee prices up $0.50 - $1.00 per pound in less than a month. (20 days from our last order) Certain origins we used to get a good deal on have more than doubled in price since last year. Haaaaaa This is fine.

It's my day off. I took adderall with the intent of cleaning the house. What am I doing? Trying to rearrange furniture and clear out the garage. ...I guess I'm technically still cleaning if it's the garage, right?

Local roaster competition tomorrow... I'm offering a blend I've only ever used for personal use. It got excellent feedback today as both cold brew and drip coffee. ...and it's also fantastic for espresso. Ofc, I still have severe imposter syndrome. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Do not recommend text support for appliance troubleshooting because holy shit do they not understand the problem, even when I'm being perfectly clear. And yes I'm fully aware it was probably AI.

Me rn

Coastal South Carolina is getting snow tonight. I haven't seen that shit in 6 years.

....oh. I guess the drum needs to be realigned. (This isn't something you want to see, lol) It's a good thing that A: I have a second roaster and B: this is the slow season

Food coma, brb.

Today is one of those days where the adderall is working against me and causing a speedrun of my ADHD instead of making me focus on one thing at a time lol.

Feeling very grateful to be doing something I love, and I'm looking forward to seeing how much more the business will grow this year. My boss is still waiting for the bakery sale to complete before it's just me and him doing coffee, but we definitely have plans to expand even more.

RIP

I think I have a decent blend for the Robusta I've been playing with. Maybe. I feel less confident tasting black espresso than I do when I'm cupping my roasts. I'm definitely going to want a second opinion, but I'm pleased with how it tastes so... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I am not sleeping tonight.

I have *so much* unfocused energy right now... I haven't actually taken my adderall in a while. AND I'm testing espresso blends with Robusta, which has more caffeine than standard Arabica. My heart is mad. And I feel I need to spin in circles because I don't know where to put all this energy. 💀

Man, even with adderall there are times when I'm reading and I end up focusing too much on, well... *focusing*, and then I don't remember what I read. Brains. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

A precious cinnamon roll.

Sinuses still won't clear up. Body, can you stop pls. Covid is done. Quit your shit.

When you're gone for over a week and find new, fun things that people have screwed up.

It's a bit foggy

Fever finally broke, but my sinuses and throat are still heavily in the "ur sick lol" category.

Day 6 of Rona. My throat is no longer on fire, but my fever refuses to stay gone and I feel extra dumb today.

Fever still going strong and my throat is on fire. I've run out of cough drops. RIP.

I swear, Tylenol does absolutely nothing for fevers. But I don't want to keep taking advil.

Feels relatively mild so far. Fever hovering between 99-100 and only mild body aches. Spending the day holed up on the couch with genshin and clone wars, lol.

I have covid. A+

Had a meeting with someone from House of Blues today and sampled several blends for them to carry/use for their Sunday Brunches/Restaurant. I'm happy to say I got the account! My personal life may be in shambles, but at least I'm great at my job. 🥹
