Hello! 👋🏾

Written by:

This is my first post on a new site. 🥳

For full transparency, this isn’t my first blog. Back in 2018, I started another site on WordPress during a time of real internal turmoil and growth. That was a place where I would write about everything – every thought and every emotion. From race issues to political discourse and feminist literature; from navigating eroding romantic relationships to my even more badly beaten and bruised mental health.

That blog was a time capsule of my mind during my 20s: messy, complicated, and evolving.

I’ve made it through all that noise, and truth be told, that messy, sprawling mass of eight years of writing no longer served its purpose. It no longer represented who I am now—the person who knows their standing in the world and can articulate and discuss those uncomfortable topics. I am now a person who is healed and adores the meditative process of making a good cup of Joe.

So I deleted my old blog and started Coffee Log.

This is a space to share my coffee journey and my passion for the Coffea plant. I aim to share all of the beans I try (and hopefully enjoy), along with my tasting notes, coffee gear, and dialing-in parameters. If you are a fellow coffee enthusiast or a casual drinker, I hope this gives you a starting point for making a lovely cup of coffee at home.

So, grab a cup and let’s talk coffee.
