WELCOME TO: GEMINI RISING   UPDATED INTRO 28 MAY 2024: Just a little about me. I've been married for 32 years this past NOV and currently live in Southern California, but I grew up in New Hampshire. I've got 2 boys who are young adults. I work as a 911 dispatcher for LAPD. I enjoy my job a lot. Still. If you can believe that. I love to write. Thankfully both of my boys achieved Eagle Scout. My Scouting days are over and I'm back to focusing on my writing. I like to get out in nature, drink coffee and watch football. Here's a little bio about my zodiac. GEMINI: Gemini, the sign of the Twins, is dual-natured, elusive, complex and contradictory. On the one hand it produces the virtue of versatility, and on the other the vices of two-facedness and flightiness. The sign is linked with Mercury, the planet of childhood and youth, and its subjects tend to have the graces and faults of the young. When they are good, they are very attractive; when they are bad they are more the worse for being the charmers they are. Like children they are lively, and happy, if circumstances are right for them, or egocentric, imaginative and restless. Their good qualities are attractive and come easily to them. They are affectionate, courteous, kind, generous, and thoughtful towards the poor and suffering - provided none of the activities resulting from expressing these traits interferes too greatly with their own lives and comforts. Geminians can be successful in many walks of life though their general characteristics tend to make them unreliable. They are often skilled manipulators of language, in speech and writing, and may be: debaters, diplomats (though in politics they are more interested in theory than practice), orators, preachers (brilliant rather than profound), teachers, authors, poets, journalists, or lawyers. This is me. I am a Gemini. Pure, Raw, passionate. The NEW focus of this blog is to share my adventures, travels, random thoughts, book reviews, thoughts, opinions, and writing adventures from actual writing, writing/editing tips, marketing, research. I'll get there. BLOG ACCOMPLISHMENTS: SEPTEMBER 2024: I participated in the

I thought I'd share some thoughts on a coffee brand that I buy today. I'm not a Starbucks fan. I used to be, but I found their beans are too in your face. When it comes to coffee, I'm always looking for American Micro brands. I also like American Micro brews when it comes to beer, as well. Question for you: Do you drink coffee? Have a favorite? Or do you prefer tea? I have a Pine Needle Tea that I like, but I also enjoy Chamomile and some others. Product: coffee What is it: beverage Address: Mailing: P.O. Box 1344, Cheyenne, Wyoming, 82003; 401 W 19th St., Suite 301, Cheyenne, WY. Owned by: Tej Gill, Family owned, veteran operated, Doug Juelfs is the registered point of contact for the company. From the Website: Founded by Navy SEAL combat veteran Tej Gill, we are veteran owned, and we are family operated. We take great pride in being coffee connoisseurs who donāt like to compromise. Our crew consists of passionate coffee lovers who would fight even Davy Jones for an aromatic cup of coffee. We are veterans, NYPD, wives, and a 30+ year coffee roaster. Taste and stimulation. Whether you're a coffee enthusiast or a casual drinker, you will be blown away by our blendās smooth-as-silk flavor, intoxicating aroma, and rich body. But donāt worry. Itās not all just bells and whistles. When it comes to stimulation, our blend is unrivaled. You will find no acidity, no bitterness, just raw, pure coffee energy that will get you through the day. Taste is #1 We are on a mission to make gourmet coffee a part of your daily routine. Every single bean is roasted in the United States using traditional roasting methods with a single goal; make every cup unique. Warpath Coffee is meant to be drank black. Our coffee is perfectly roasted so there is never a bitter or acidic flavor, you donāt need sugar or milk with Warpath Coffee. Drink it black, be healthy and enjoy the perfectly roasted coffee is this bag. Roasting Beans: We small batch roast, meaning we do batch by batch, old school style Jabez Burns roasters were around since the civil war, the original civil war roasting style. Perforated drum, no tipping going on (burning the tips of beans). It's the historic American way of roasting. Hot air goes through the beans and escapes through the perforated holes in the side of the drum. We roast to caramelize our beans, that's why is tastes so good black. Most roasters carbonize(burn) their beans, that's why you need milk and sugar with other roasters. My comments: I found Warpath Coffee through an online recommendation. As I love coffee, I was game to try it. One of the benefits for me was that Warpath was American made and I have a passion to buy American so that was a nice little incentive. They sell beans whole, ground, and k-cups. I can do any of the above but prefer k-cups. TASTE: I love the taste. When they say never bitter or acidic, they mean it. Honestly, this is the best tasting coffee Iāve had in quite a long time. It's very well balanced, even the dark. SHOPPING: You can buy direct from the website. You can also find Warpath products on Amazon as well, but I buy direct from the website. Currently, I have a bag of ground beans - Dark Blend which I recommend. Also, I had subscription to the Med Breakfast Blend K-cups. Now usually, I donāt subscribe to products, but that was a good subscription. I canceled it when money got tight, but now I might go back to buying the K cups. When I had the subscription, I had no issues with the subscription. PRICE: I think the price is reasonable for being a company where most sales are from the internet. The price for my K-cups are $12.99 (you can find K-cups in stores ranging from 6.99 to 12.99), so perhaps a bit on the pricier side, but Iām willing to pay it because the quality is there. UPDATE: They did away with the 12 box of K cups and now offer 42 k cups for $30.00, IMHO that's a good price. OTHER PRODUCTS: They also sell coffee mugs on their website. They also sell gourmet coffee such as maple bacon, maple bourbon, and dark chocolate. WISH LIST: I wish they sold bumper stickers, hoodies, and t-shirts. Iād definitely buy some. I did not find where they made donations to any charities online. They are a newer company, with a start up date in January 2022, as far as my research can tell. I highly recommend Warpath Coffee. The coffee is one of the best tasting coffees Iāve ever had and Iām very happy with the subscription to the K-cups. Honestly, I canāt give this company a better recommendation and theyāre Made in America! References: https://www.facebook.com/Warpathcoffee/ https://twitter.com/CoffeeWarpath https://warpath.coffee |
