I'm tickled to share with you the latest news from Laughing Whale Coffee, my brother and sister-in-law's artisan roasting enterprise in Nova Scotia. Steven and Deborah have just launched their long-awaited website after several years honing their roasting skills and building their business in the Lunenburg-Halifax region. Their love of community, of humanity, and of excellence shines.
(Here my brain goes off in a digression, "Dangerous word, excellence. But think in life terms of balance, humility, and process, not perfectionism and performance-based acceptance.")
So, back at www.laughingwhalecoffee.com, enjoy browsing. Check out their online tour of Canada's first Eco-Roaster, which gives Laughing Whale's coffee the "Lowest Carbon Footprint per Cup". (I can just picture a coffee cup leaving little footprints.) Where did they find all the arcane coffee quotes on their website? This is my current favorite, pertaining, of course, to their support of fair trade coffee:
"I pity the man who wants a coat so cheap that the man or woman who produces the cloth will starve in the process." ~ Benjamin Harrison
More than his coffee, I miss my brother's puns. I so wish they lived closer to Kenmore! A cup of their coffee helps a little :^)
