Coffee Cuff — 'Wear your java jacket'

What better day to upgrade your coffee experience than today, what with Starbucks unveiling its new Pike Place Roast?

"Tuesday at 11 a.m. CST Starbucks stores across the nation will be conducting a simultaneous tasting, giving away free 8-ounce cups of its new Pike Place Roast."

That's this very minute, joeheads, so drop it like it's hot and get thee to your local outlet for some free coffee.

That's better.

Let's continue where we left off, shall we?

From Vancouver-based Contexture Design come these handmade bracelets fashioned from reclaimed veneer,

made to fit snugly around your cup and always at hand (or to be more precise, wrist) when it's time for a hit.
