See it’s not just for drinking. That’s right, it’s a watercolour too! I’m not so sure that my boyfriend would appreciate me using coffee as paint. He’s wants to move across the street from a coffeehouse but is afraid that if we do, he’d go bankrupt. Can you imagine how thrilled he’d be if I tempted him with the smell of coffee in the house 24/7 and then announced “Sorry I’m using that for a painting, don’t drink it”.
Anyway, if the video appealed to you and you’d like to own some coffee art of your own then wander on over to Angel and Andy’s website: http://www.justcoffeeart.com. Of course if you’re on a budget they sell prints too – coffee aroma on those not included.
But wait, what’s that? You’re an art snob? If you’re going to own a print it’s going to be of a classic, perhaps the Mona Lisa. Well then coffee-art.com might have the solution. Site owner Karen, also uses coffee in her art, but has reproduced some of the most identifable pieces of art and so yes, you can buy a print of the Mona Lisa, sorry, Mona Latte.
Alternatively you can always just run down to your nearest dollar store, find some cheap coffee (I wouldn’t waste the good stuff on this), and create your own masterpiece!
Ok, don’t get me wrong, I have morals. I’m quite sad to discover (a bit late, I admit) that Coffee Bean was sued for not being handicap accessible. You can read all about that here. But will I do something silly like say boycott them? Hell no. And before anyone jumps on me about bad business practices, blah blah blah, keep in mind I live in California and occasionally go to Coffee Bean…. AND I have handicap parking which I have to use there as they have no parking to speak of. Like I said, I have morals, I feel for those people. But you know what I also shop at Wal Mart now and then and I go to Starbucks every week! Yeah… Sue me.
But you see Coffee Bean offers me a product I can never find anywhere else and it’s a MUST HAVE! Click to read more …

This is mainly a test post. It’s also about what inspired this site, a Starbucks cup. I don’t know about your Starbucks, but mine likes to ask for your name so they can write it on the cup and never use it. I always speak clearly but I have an unusual name and Starbucks employees don’t tend to like to ask how to spell it. So every weekend on our trip to Starbucks, my boyfriend and I like to tee hee over how many ways they spell my name. For the record, my name is Ramie and is pronounced Ray-me. I’ve never had it spelled correctly on a Starbucks cup, unless they ask, and as I said they don’t like to ask.
How does that lead to us starting a blog? Well I thought I’d seen every possible variation of my name until I saw it spelled with a Q. Apparently I’m Quami now. We decided that I should start a blog with all of the different spellings, for fun. But hey, even with a new spelling every weekend, one can only post so many Starbucks cup pictures and since my mom used to own a coffeeshop we’ve decided to write a blog about all things coffee. It will be a joint effort. Which is a good thing… Because a cup like Quami is a rare thing. Rami… Ramey… Raimie… those I get every few weekends. But mom, she actually knows something about coffee.
