Today I filled an order for a guy that was sending a care package to Iraq. I could definitely relate with his desire to send his friend a "piece of home". I did the same when Mary and her brothers were overseas. Steve couldn't find a decent cup in Egypt while he was stuck in an outpost, Tom was a platoon sergeant that wanted to treat his guys and gals to something that was better than the "coffee" served in the mess hall, and Mary was in Kosovo - a country that was still rebuilding and did not have the great coffee houses that we are used to.

All of them are back now - I hope they don't have to ship out again - but if they do they know they can count on me for coffee and tea!!
