I was out of town for a few days attending the always fabulous Texas Book Festival in Austin so did not get to share a few days' worth of tricks or treats, so I will add on a couple of days at the end as a bonus and share some cool stuff I learned at the Festival!
Meanwhile, I wanted to highlight a new affiliate retailer on Sweetest Whimsy's Retail Love list: Cross Country Cafe. What is their site all about? In a word: Coffee!
This is the first retailer on the list that offers mostly edibles (or really, drinkables) and a nice contrast to the papers and gifts on my other fave sites. Specifically, they offer ground and whole bean coffee, Keurig Kcups, gourmet coffee pods and a selection of brewers. If you are coffee lover, this online shop is for you. I swear when I am browsing this site, I can practically smell the java. No joke.
What I like about Cross Country Cafe: they offer fair trade, organic and sustainable coffees. Coffee lovers who ask for Fair Trade Certified™ and organic coffee may
not realize it, but they are helping the world maintain a long-term
supply of high-quality beans.
Every week they host Wacky Wednesday with a number of specials of the day, and this week, in honor of Halloween (and perhaps the arrival of real Fall weather to Texas!) they are offering these spooky themed flavors and roasts on sale:
Love the images, scents and sounds of Halloween and Fall that they conjure up! TREAT yourself to all of the Wacky Wednesday savings, including coffee pods and ground coffee, and visit Cross Country Cafe's online store:
