A Coffeelicious Birthday Party

Cinnamon Cup Coffee is turning two, and the team gave me the honor of planning the party! From invitations to the menu. Location and entertainment too - I get to decide on every detail!

We are going to have this one of a kind celebration at TwoRuba . Obviously I booked the entire place. The views are magnificent. With its capacity, it's going to hold all who RSVP'd.

Obviously I'm going to invite the team, as well as all of our friends from all across the Hiviverse.

In addition to those who already know and love our home, I'll invite some influential people. If they choose to come, I feel they'll add something special to the party. And perhaps to the community as well, if things go as I hope.

For entertainment, I thought we might just ask our Hive friends to display their very best work, in whatever area they are most talented. I happen to know that we have some great musicians!

Let's see if I chose wisely, shall we? It's time to go to the party!

I greet the first person to arrive. "Why hello, Millycf. How kind of you to fly up for this."

She smiles, looking at the spectacular view from the huge window with approval."Thank you, Wrestlingdesires."

We had a nice chat, but soon more guests needed my attention. It was amazing to meet everyone in person who I chat with every day!

About twenty minutes later, the celebrity guests began to arrive. First was Dwayne "the Rock" Johnson, closely followed by Elon Musk. Brian Armstrong came in about fifteen minutes later, as did Jeff Bezos.

I was honored to meet each and every one of them. They were very appreciative and gracious when I greeted them.

After I confirmed that everyone had arrived, I took to the podium. "Ladies and gentlemen, please be seated."

Once everyone was settled, I continued. "Thank you for coming to the second birthday of Cinnamon Cup Coffee. In front of you, you'll find a party bag. It's full of goodies, including the private keys to a new Hive account of your very own. Within the account you'll find enough cards to begin your Splinterlands adventure, token gifts from many of our Bees' projects, and a generous amount of HP and HBD."

The room erupted in applause. I waited until it was quiet. "I can't take credit for this, it's all thanks to our wonderful Cinnamon Cup Coffee Community. You will find gift certificates for the finest online coffee stores as well. And last but not least, you'll also receive a year's worth of coffee from the cafe of your choice, for you and a friend or loved one. Please fill out the form, and give it to me before you depart."

At this announcement, the sound of the crowd was deafening. I grinned, knowing that this was like Christmas and birthdays all wrapped up in one for our coffee loving guests.

Then I stepped down, and allowed our volunteer entertainers to do what they were born to do. I took my seat, and watched with pleasure as everyone had a great time.

I had been very thorough when making the seating arrangements. Celebrity guests were paired up with people who were best suited to inform them of the Hive opportunities which would best suit their businesses and interests.

Selfishly, I placed myself right in the middle of this action. While I was eating a delicious dinner, I couldn't stop smiling. Questions and answers were flying at light speed, some even coming my way!

The Cinnamon Cup Coffee Community charmed everyone, and both our Hive and celebrity guests promised to post about their next cup!

Hive gained an offer from Brian Armstrong to list both HIVE and HBD on Coinbase. Jeff Bezos was enthusiastic about both accepting HBD on Amazon as well as having an official Amazon blog on Hive.

"What more could I ask for? This is the best evening ever," I thought. Then I looked around again.

Elon Musk was already logging into his new Hive account. He wasn't asking questions any more, but he was still smiling. And his eyes were glued to the Hive content on his screen.

Dwayne Johnson was talking to the guys making the new Hive movie. Earlier I'd seen him eagerly listening to the news about how Hive impacts the lives of low income people, and the efforts to provide clean drinking water to African villages.

After the chatting and various versions of gourmet coffee flavored cakes were finished, we spent the rest of the night sipping gourmet coffee. During this time friendships were made, renewed, and strengthened. It was an experience I'll never forget!
