Just how bitter is the coffee in their area???

I always though coffee was supposed to be a _little_ bitter.

I might be be persuaded to try a cup of the coffee, but I would sooner eat the elephant than pay 50 dollars for something that ran through it.

Hee! At a thrift store I found a great scrapbook made out of elephant dung paper. I’m guessing it commanded a premium retail price originally. No thanks to the elitely chic coffee though.

I’ve bought elephant-dung paper here before, but it’s not that easy to find. Got it at a stand at one of the elephant-polo tournaments. They had elephant-dung greeting cards too, and I mailed some of those out.
