I was perusing my local newspaper today when I came across an interesting anecdote. Evidently my local coffeehouse can boast about a brush with fame.

Writer/radio host (and fellow Minnesotan) Garrison Keillor tried some of Burly Coffee’s brew and gave it a Prairie Home Companion style endorsement:

“This is the best coffee in Minnesota. Which means it’s not bad. It could be worse.”

That simple phrase can apply to not only my hometown but the entire state. The Twins? Not too bad. The weather? Could be worse. The accent? Da best in da Midwest, dontcha know.
