Fiona Fridays




So I have never been much of an art lover, even though art was a big part of my upbringing. I never really got it. Art major types struggle to make me understand the point of it all. Well, no one has taught me more about making stuff and being creative than my four year old. It just has to make you feel something. Everytime I see one of her creations that certainly is the case. So on fridays, this blog will take a break from all that other stuff and feature stuff that she makes. enjoy!

New Neighbor at Harry and Beans Coffee


So the trifecta has finally been completed. Last spring, a new seafood place opened up behind me and I casually used to joke if only we had beer in the complex, we'd be all set with coffee, scallops and beer. well it happened, Tuckahoe Brewing Co. will be up and running in a couple months. When they start their tours on Saturdays, I'll be open as well serving up coffee and espresso and of course coffee by the pound. I'll post the hours as soon as I know 'em. I look forward to seeing ya out at the factory.
Check out the brewery here http://tuckahoebrewingcompany.blogspot.com/
look forward to a Harry and Beans Coffee infused stout soon!

Steeds in the Stable


The twins are gonna undergo some changes this winter after the holidays. The ruckus will be more dramatic, I really wanna see if I can hit 50mph with a 50cc motor so she's getting stretched and lowered, probably a new paint scheme as well. The rebel needs really only a bit of TLC, new tires, chain/sprockets ...minor stuff. However if I tear into her, it will probably look and ride much different next spring. Until then, I'll concentrate on roasting the finest Harry and Beans Coffee I can. Thanks again for the overwhelming response to the new store, I really appreciate it.

Thanks for Day 1 chapter 3


Well thanks everyone for a great first day of the new store. Apparently my coffee was missed...a couple bugs in the store that I am trying to sort out is the dreaded shipping table. Those of you who ordered and took advantage of the free shipping still got charged so refunds will be forthcoming...
Plenty of coffee going out today in this rain. While I wait for it to clear, I'll dream of owning this bike, 1940 HD knucklehead, just beautiful...

Harry and Beans Coffee via mail


Ok, so those of you reading this blog have suffered through some pretty bizarre procedures to get my coffee sent to your house. It is no secret to the people closest to me I have very little affinity to technology and am certainly somewhat of a recluse. So if you don't want to drive out to the roastery in the hopes of catching me there, (I know its hard to figure me out), check out the new store link over on the right hand corner. I am offering up two pound packages for $21.99 shipped in the U.S. for $5.99 or order 2 packages and I'll ship them for free. As for now I will not be hassling you by email but trying to rebuild this thing organically from the ground up. I have no interest in being the next petes or amazon or whatever. I just want people to dig my coffee and get it in their mailbox.
So no more third party nonesense, no more weird emails, no more lame specials. Just great, delicious coffee from my own two hands.
