A card with my favorite Penny Black Snowfamily stamp.
I gave the kids some hot cocoa in a cup ;o)
The tree is a die-cut from Michael Strong on which I stamped a big Coffee stamp from Stampendous...so it is a COFFEE Christmas tree.
Thank you for having a look here and for the nice comments you leave behind on my cards.

Finca El Yalu wonderful coffee farm in the highlands of Guatemala, producing one of the best coffees in this country year after year. Landmark of an amazing cup, its character shows true Guatemalan Coffee characteristics that only bare more complexity as we undertake this off-season walk through its many spectacular views. Amidst blackberry plantations and cow fields, one wishes to anchor here for a while.

Coffee trees can grow more than 30 feet unless cut back. Greenwell Farms keep theirs cut low so workers can pick the coffee cherries without having to climb terribly high on ladders.
The tour was Greenwell Farms Coffee Plantation was fascinating. Our tour guide, who sounded like she had been living in Hawaii all her life, was a botanist originally from Chicago.
Els xiquets de la comunitat ens van deixar tastar l'envoltura del café, té el gust semblant al d'una cirera.
Los chamacos de la comunidad nos dieron a provar la envoltura del café, tiene un sabor parecido al de una cereza.

The tree grows in open woods. Its thick, dark bark is gray to grayish-brown. It often is marked with deep, irregular furrows and plates that curl at their sides. The Kentucky Coffeetree grows in moist soils with other hardwoods in eastern North America.

Gathering Kentucky Coffeetree fruits. Why? Well... why not, I suppose. Neve gets a kick out of the seeds within. Or taking them apart. Or something.

Almost done but not quite. We got to get the Marzocco in there. The cart area will be a bar counter for seating soon!
There were tons of Goldfinches at Turtle Grove today (no turtles, though) - this one was taking a rest in a Kentucky Coffeetree.
