I did it! I found some of the Starbucks Water Soluble Coffee while in the Bloggers Lounge at South By Southwest. Look for a review show with the Coffee Gals coming soon. Here’s a pic for your viewing pleasure.
Sunday Morning Coffee
Jackie and Jennifer were having a delicious cup of brew and chatting on a nice Sunday morning. So the desire to record hit. Thanks to the ease of BlogTalkRadio we were able to put a show out.
• A good friend of the show, Michael De Leon, sent us a link to the site, “Death by Caffeine”. We discover just how much caffeine it would take to kill Jennifer.
• Starbucks has created their own unique “soluble” version of instant coffee which will come out on March 3rd.
• We really like the Crop to Cup concept of creating a closer and more intimate connection between the farmer growing the beans and the coffee in our cups.

In today’s show we hear from Jennifer and Jackie as they join the “Live Show” circuit.
This morning we’re drinking a Kona Blend from a good friend who happened to vacation in Hawaii. We also discuss some of the recent brew given to us by @pandaran aka Luis Sandoval
Is the recession affecting your coffee? According to recent reports companies like Starbucks are feeling the pinch.
We discovered that coffee shops in the Netherlands are a whole different kind of place. Who knew?
Our Did You Know comes to us from our most trusted and reliable source, Mom.
Coffee Gadget: Coffee Cuff is as beautiful to wear as it is useful.
We also share some of our recent news:
•Jennifer didn’t just complete the 13.1 miles of the San Antonio Rock-n-Roll Marathon, she Tweeted, Uttered and Facebooked her way through it, too.
•Jackie was in Las Vegas recently and shares her Elvis experience.
Thank you so much for encouraging us to get on with the podcasting fun.
Cheers,
Jennifer & Jackie
