Raise Your Glasses

Here's to the people who frequent places in need of a pick-me-up, a shot of espresso, cup of joe on the go, or lounging with someone they know. This is for the pretentious types & beggars alike; the tired, the weary, those desperately studying, & everyone else in between. Here's to the readers, the dreamers, roamers, loners, crazy characters, passerby's, & regulars. Here's to a comfy couch, a mellow musical mix, a crafty corner dimly lit, warm smells, unexpected spectacles, & baristas themselves. Here's to the peaceful existence between dark roasts, vanilla lattes, half & half cream, or foreign born beans; a true house blend all sipping together under one unified roof or outdoor spot, & the pure essence of the Americano melting pot. Here's to all of those who are continually stirring the coffee culture.

It All Happened so Fast

A friend and I had just arrived at a coffee shop. We had barely had time to scan for seats when we both walked past a table as a girl said aloud, "I am, like, so incredibly single right now. I mean, it's not even funny." When we found our own seat we both asked each other if we had heard that comment, verbally wondering how bad things have to get to downgrade one's status from single to: incredibly single.

She was wrong though. It was pretty funny. I mean, like, she was, like, sitting as the only girl amongst three dudes leading the conversation with her incredible singleness. To this bizarre bean with super slim pickins these days: you know who you are...
