More Coffee On Cards

*laptop is on an actual lap, waits for wife to be done at dentists for a very long, lengthy and expensive appointment. takes a sip from dunkin cup, and figures it's time for a new Cards Over Coffee post*

I normally don't carry my laptop around unless I know I am going to be somewhere for a long amount of time. Today, is that day. While my wife is getting some dental work done, I am sitting in the car waiting for her and figured I might as well get a post done.

I didn't however have any cards in my drafts, but I had two cards on my laptop I hadn't uploaded or shown off other than on the main face of the blog so figured I might as well do those ones since I have extra time to do so today.

I have had these cards for a few months now, so they are nothing new other than a new post.

There are not a lot of cards out there that feature coffee on them, other than former 49ers running back Glen Coffee who played in the league for one year before retiring and served in the U.S. Army instead. I had considered at one point adding a few of his cards for fun, maybe some time.

I believe for the most part though, I have the three or four cards that feature this blogs premier drink

 

I got this 1991 Star Pics Twin Peaks Coffee mug card from a friend on Twitter who is a big time Twin Peaks fan and collector. I knew about this card and was seeking one and he happened to have an extra for me. I wonder if this is the first coffee card.

And then I was able to add this Topps And Ginter International Coffee Day card thanks to my buddy Shane. You will see this card again in October so be prepared for that.

That's it for my latest coffee card, cards on coffee, cards over coffee whatever you want to call these cards with coffee on them adds.

Thoughts on these cards welcomed in comments. Also, let me know if you collect any funky-fun cards like these of anything in particular while you are at it.

Hope everyone has a great Thursday, especially my wife and wallet.

Card About Coffee

*where would life be without coffee is what I am pondering this morning after not getting a lot of sleep last night. For a strictly decaf coffee drinker, the taste is what its all about for me so I go to a lot of dark roasts to get that flavor. otherwise it feels like I am drinking watered down milk or what I call skim milk. takes another sip, I can feel myself waking up some...*

I had never considered the thought before, but how cool would it be to own a card that involved coffee for this Coffee drinking, blogger? So I took to Twitter for help on this subject. I was shown a few examples of players drinking out of paper cups, etc. It really wasn't what I was looking for. Then I started getting some more interesting suggestions. Someone found a really cool Coffee Mug card from 1991 Star Pics Twin Peaks I really want still. Another person found suggested that maybe I should collect a few Glen Coffee cards. Then a close friend of mine sent me a picture of a card that is in today's card post and let me tell you, this card is a perfect fit.

In 2019, Rittenhouse created a Scratch and Sniff set in it's Twin Peaks Archives product. There are a few cards in that set that would fit on this blog but none more than the one I bought.

Coffee...and yes, I scratched it some just so I can sniff it and they nailed the scent.

 

I probably won't scratch it too many times as I don't want it to lose its essence.

I don't remember a lot about the show but remember watching it in the 90's. I may have to do some research or watch a few episodes to remind myself.

*takes a scratch..I mean sip before closing up today's post*

On my big want list right now is to hunt down that Star Pics Coffee Mug card. I think it would be a lot of fun to coffee card up this blog.

Also on my watch list is adding a few more of these that would fit on here such as Bacon and Eggs, Birthday Cake and especially, Donuts. No, I am not a cop.

Let me know your thoughts on scratch and sniff cards and if you own or have seen any cards that relate to coffee.
