Today is shaping up to be a wonderful day. I will be posting my 2000th tweet. Many of my twitter friends who have crossed this threshold before me have set the precedent of using landmark tweets to announce something big.
Following the tradition I am using my 2000th tweet to announce the arrival of my new Nepresso machine. I recently blogged about our trip to Costa Rica, where we met some amazing people who work for Nepresso. My wife has stayed in touch with them.
A few weeks ago I had an acute rupture of my appendix and wound up in emergency surgery to remove it. I have been recovering well, but it is a slow process. Our new friends at Nepresso decided they would help speed up my recovery, with a new Nepresso machine! Imagine my surprise when the UPS man dropped off a package for me today, with a get well card, and a new Le Cube!
I have been like a kid on Christmas morning. Setting up my new machine, checking out all the features, warming some espresso cups and of course making some of the best espresso in the world!
