want some poopy coffee?

I was talking with our volunteer team today at our staff meeting, and the subject of kopi luwak coffee came up. In short, it's the most expensive coffee in the world, at up to $600 USD per pound. The coffee beans are found in the scat (poop) of the Asian Palm Civet, which eats the ripe coffee cherries, then poops...the beans are harvested, washed, and lightly roasted, so as to retain their, um, flavor.

Man, that brings up SO many tangents and questions, doesn't it?

Any way you look at it, it's an interesting story about how "great" things can come from the waste of life. I am praying that God takes the poop of my life and brings great stuff to light.
