Seattle Coffee Works Sign

An admonition to blend? A statement of fact about what just happened in the nation-wide elections? Or simple phrases advertising Seattle Coffee Work's East African/Indonesian/Kona blend named in the President's honor? Well, I actually took this shot in September 2009, when it was still candidate Obama, but coming upon the shot again recently (I had featured a view of SCW's newly installed "Coffee Drinking Man" sign instead) I thought the phrases, seen in light of the recent election, took on a bit of humor.

Clever, Kim. I hope the brew is smoother than the presidency has been so far.

Wow! They already offered this blend two years ago! Not sure this time will be that successful...
As a good foreign guy trying to "blend" into the Country, I will wait for the "eggnog lattes"...

Great picture ... it was taken, well, at least 15 months ago ... While the Obama Blend remains a best seller, the A-board pictured here has been retired for a looong time. And, yes, the Obama Blend is actually really good coffee. :-)
