This statement was made today...Men don't know how to get love. One of the ladys pulled a gentelmen into to this coversation. After he heard the statement his rely was. I lost my wife because I didn't know how to get love. Meaning, I didn't do the litte things that mattered.  I think this will go on for a while.

Mother's Day

I know I'm early with this but,  I have been thinking about Mother's Day. I can't help but think about my four wonderful children. They are all grown and gone. What I would love to have this year is to have them all at home!

To all the mothers out there...What do you want this year?

Customer Service

Yesterday at Cafe' Ole' I was asked by new customers and repeaters...Yes, I have repeaters! When are you going to open a retail location. I asked my repeaters and new customers, "Will you come out and volunteer time so that I can open". Their response was...you just tell me when and where! I wanted to cry.
"When your customer service is excellent they will come back even when your product is not at it's best. With excellent customer service and great product they will help you build! "

The Smallest Step is the Biggest

I’m thrilled to announce that the Café Olé Coffee House opened January 28, 2012!

Taking my first step Café Olé has opened inside a very unique place, the Cooks Flea Market in Winston-Salem, NC. This location made the most logical sense because my customers are already visiting for other reasons and I'm ready to serve them my amazing coffee with a smile.

Additionally my Piedford Blend is now available for purchase inside "Let It Grow” - a small shop that supports local vendors in Winston-Salem, NC.

These small steps are a huge step towards the pursuit of my dreams. I feel blessed by my faith, family and friends and am thankful for their support. Things can only get better from here!!!

I’ll keep you posted on what happens next,

The first cup is the deepest.

I have been a coffee lover since I was a small child. I had my first coffee experience at my grandmother's house; she poured  her coffee and put a little in a saucer and let me sip away. The experience forever changed what I considered simply a way to get closer to my grandmother. Coffee became one of my favorite things. Being a wife and raising four wonderful children, you can forget the things you love to do outside your family. For a long time, I forgot how much I loved coffee and coffee culture.  Just after all of my children left the nest, I began visiting local coffeehouses in Winston-Salem, NC. One of the owners shared her vision with me, how she built her coffee shop, and her passion for producing a quality cup and developing customer relationships. This relationship spurred the birth of my coffee shop, Cafe' Ole' Coffee House!
