Kona Coffee

So I am decidedly a bit of a coffee snob. I use a Bodum French press, get my coffee in whole beans shipped from Peets, and use a burr grinder to grind the beans at the moment I'm ready for them. Today, a special shipment of Kona reserve beans were opened, and the coffee was delicious. These will have to be an infrequent indulgence, though, because the beans were about four times the cost of the normal house blend variety that are usually ordered. Still, it was a nice change of pace and flavor!

What better way to kick off my foray into blogging than by sharing this website with you. I came across it by way of twitter. In case you don't know, I'm a bit of a tech nerd, and one of the big names in the tech world is Kevin Rose. So, when he happened to send along a post to his followers promoting his (now) wife's website, I was curious and gave it a look. I'm so thankful I have, because Darya Pino Rose has a wealth of information to share about making positive changes in one's life, especially as it relates to how we approach food and that tarnished word called "dieting". She is very down to earth, and leverages her highly respected academic pedigree (PhD in Neuroscience among other studies) in a way that is meant to share her wisdom and life experiences not from a lofty perch, but someone who has practiced what she writes. You would be remiss if you didn't give this website a long look, and beyond that, her newest book, Foodist.
