Our Gift to You
Before the county approved my plea for a building permit, I was bellied up to the bar at The Muk Cafe, drinking amazing coffee with Gary Smith (co-owner of the Mukilteo Coffee Co with his amazing wife, Beth). It was there that I approved the final architectural design of the house, there where I took my then two year old Hana when the rains drove us away from hand-tying each piece of the rebar foundation on which the house now sits, and it was there where Gary and I decided to create the perfect blend of coffee that you now enjoy while at the house. Gary sent me home with a variety of small-batch beans from over around the world, and I then chose three for The Kingfisher Blend. Gary, Beth, and now their boys produce some of the finest coffees I have ever had.
It was through our partnership with Holly at Edit, the unbelievably cool shop on First Street in Langley, that I heard about the Seattle based company, Miir. A few clicks on their website and it was apparent to me that I needed to work with this business. The clean-lined, beautiful styling of their products, coupled with their philosophy of being sustainable and giving back, made this an easy choice. Keeping with the coffee theme in our welcome gift, I felt the Miir 360 Tumbler was the perfect place to show off the logo that my niece, Bethany, created for us.
