an elusive gift

after a long and tiresome search for steve's favorite seasonal coffee i had to face the sad truth....millstone did not produce enough (or any!) holiday peppermint goodness. i made several pit stops to kroger and walmart stores frantically seeking out his favorite hot beverage and soon realized i should utilize this thing called the internet to supplement my pursuit for this elusive gift. i found that beans are available and for a mere $28 a lb they could be mine and steve's stocking could be filled, however my coupon is only for a couple bucks and isn't redeemable online. therefore this year steve will be disappointed to find his stocking void of yummy smelling tree beans....sorry honey!
