There is a relatively new trend in coffee houses, these days.  Freshly roasted coffee beans, usually roasted right on the premises.

These beans are usually a bit more pricey than the coffee beans you find on your supermarket shelf, but not a lot more, and there are some surprising benefits to drinking coffee made from freshly roasted beans.

Sunday is St. Patrick’s Day.  St. Patrick is Ireland’s patron saint, and there are many interesting facts and myths about the former slave turned missionary, including his banishing snakes from Ireland. 

But here is one you might not have heard: No one is quite sure where St. Patrick is buried.  Historians know of a few likely places, but there is no evidence for one location over the other.

St. Patrick has been inspiring annual celebrations since 1631, when the Roman Catholic Church established his Feast Day.

From the long list of St. Patrick’s Day-related events, we can tell that Edmonton plans to make an entire weekend of the event.

For the uninitiated, Edmonton offers some of best pub and brew experiences in all of Western Canada.  Yes, we are not known for being Celtic Warriors with a love of rugby and clover leaves, but we know our beer and how to ring in St. Patty’s Day.  As such, our publisher shared his thoughts on five great places for a pint, this year.
