Tazza D’Oro on Positively Pittsburgh Live! – Tonight

Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!

Nothing against the other folks, but wanted to say thanks for actually bringing that conversation back to actual coffee time and time again! Yeah, I was Guest #9. The one who wanted you guys to promote the barista competitions at the end ;-)

Definitely bad timing... seemed like when the competition came up, technical glitches kicked in. Plus, it was the wrong person to discuss the competition. Amy rocked!

Thanks for all the emails,comments and listening it to the show last night. The response has been awesome. The premise of the show was to positively highlight the way in which coffee houses impact and contribute to our communities. I think there is an important place for all of us. However, I did take the opportunity to focus a little on the coffee and the barista and the show's host was happy to highlight that as well. Rich, Ward, Oliver and others, I think there will be an opportunity to do another show talking about our passion- coffee, the baristas,and the experience and community coffee helps create. Last night was a first step to talking with more folks and the chance to begin to educate the differences in our business models. So, you up for it? Ya know, "from our lips to their ears"! Have a good one! Amy

Oh, and all the info about the Mid-Atlantic/Northeast regional barista competition will be added to Positively Pittsburgh's site sometime today.

Glad you enjoyed being on the show Amy. I was happy to recommend you as a guest to Joanne. I knew that you would expand greatly what was discussed and promote what we HP people know, Tazza doro is the place to be.
