Hey everybody!

We have exploded at the seams here in response to being on Rachael Ray, the AP story about home roasting, our new fundraising program, public radio and t.v. exposure and just massive and rapid general growth.  Be careful what you wish for!

I'm not complaining, but I've gotta tell all you good customers out there that we can't guarantee that we'll process your order the same day we get it (we've been slipping on that for a few months now as many of you have told us!).

Soooooo, if you are planning to send Aunt Gert in Minnesota a home roaster or a custom blend or just a pound of Sharkbite for the holidaze, PLEAS GET THE ORDER IN TO US AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE!!!!

If you want, we'll write "DON'T OPEN BEFORE SOLSTICE" or whatever on the box.  But please don't delay and take a chance on the package getting there late.  Personally, I don't think anthing we receive after December 15th or so will make it beyond New Jersey before Christmas (as an example).

I'm one of those guys who sends the credit card bill in at the last possible date to avoid interest, but now and then I miss by a day.  Don't be like me!

What a wonderful year this has been. Thanks!!

Dean
