Tonight, the documentary "Kahvilla" aired on YLE TV1 in Finland. Our cousins over there were quite excited to see the documentary.

We have been waiting for quite some time for this documentary to air. Our good friend, Erkki Määttänen, from Finland is a documentary filmmaker for the YLE Broadcasting Company. We have known Erkki for years and have loved his film work. When he said that he would like to do a documentary on us and our Coffee Art®, we were honored.

Erkki has visited us many times over the years on his travels while filming. The footage of us is a couple of years old. We were creating coffee paintings for another documentary he was making. He was filming Finnish American musicians and for each new segment, he wanted to lead with one of our paintings. It was a nice incorporation of our Coffee Art® into his film work.

Here is the description of our documentary:

When we saw Erkki at this summer's FinnFest, he gave us this dvd with a big smile on his face. He must have known that we would love it, and we do. He is a big fan of Gidget as well, and you will see her multiple times in this film.

Thank you Erkki and YLE!
