Thanks for visiting my website and blog for my new coffee roasting business Porcella Coffee Roasters. I grew up in Modesto California and moved to New York right before 9/11. Boy, talk about an awakening. It was an amazing experience to see so many people pull together in the wake of such an enormous tragedy. I was reminded of this when I witnessed first hand the devastation of Hurricane Sandy when she hit our shores of South Brooklyn this month. Again, I was blown away by the way New Yorkers pulled together to help their fellow citizens. It is with this spirit in mind that I seek to serve all of you who order coffee from me. I am here to serve you!!! Please let me know how I can make your coffee experience the best it has ever been. I myself have gone through a bit of a rebirth with coffee when I started roasting my own beans. My palette has expanded with each new bean and each new roast. I will never say that I have learned everything there is to know about coffee because this industry is limitless in what you can learn and know about each bean, each farm, each region, each roast and each customer. Please join me on this journey to all reaches of the world.

Hi Sue: We received your order. Thank you very much! The drawings at the top of my web pages are of a Yeti character that I invented. The drawing is called "Snowman" and it is a direct reference to an Abominable Snowman. I wanted the coffee website to connect to my artistic practice and this drawing represents a very intuitive way of drawing for me that I started doing back in 2004. I used ballpoint pen on paper to make this drawing. Quite a challenge when trying to do the value pattern in the eyes and mouth. I also thought it looked like someone who had just drank a cup of my hand made coffee - a real game changer!

Now that I understand I really like the Snowman. Have you ever tried Zentangles? Along with my applique' quilting they are my favorite things to do. Wish there were more hours in the day. At 70 I have so much left to do and create. I'm looking forward to the coffee.
