you have to have a Keurig machine, I guess. Or I'd go out and buy some of that coffee tomorrow. I love coffee. Maybe I can get a bag of it online. I'll have to check on that.

What a worthy cause, and the coffee looked terrific. Mmmmmmm.

Mmmmmm for Hugh Jackman, too. One of the sexiest handsomest men to ever live. (Pierce Brosnan ain't bad, either)

Looks like they were successful at marketing. It's everywhere. Target, WalMart, Bed Bath & Beyond, Amazon, Kroger...you name it.

I use a percolator, though. Bummer.

sold by the bag in Wal-Mart. I'm not a fan of Wally-World, but if you really wanted to try it, it's available. For Keurig users, Wally-World also sells three packs of each type he produces for $2. That's a lot cheaper than you can buy it online.

Columbia Huila is the best coffee I've ever had, and I've been pouring coffee down my throat for well over 50 years! His coffees are all Fair Trade, and they're all delicious.
