One for Cosmo...

Cosmo - (a blog friend from Dublin... who has a great love for coffee), requested another coffee pic.

I have to say that a coffee shop is a great and curious thing. Our local coffee shop has become a second home - of sorts. It is a safe and warm place to escape the wild weather and a source of entertainment as it is a great place to watch the wind punish those on the outside... It is a place to be alone with a good book or a place to meet friends for an hour of laughter and serious discussion... It is a place for community... a place to bump into old friends and make new ones... and it is a place to get that all so important caffeine fix... Best of all it is a warm and welcoming place where you - for the hour that you are there - feel as if the place is your own.

Whenever a new person joins the staff we are always anxious to see how long it will be before he or she starts predicting our order or bringing it to us without being requested to do so (It usually takes about two weeks). Several of the people at our coffee shop are extremely friendly, and I am always a bit blessed by their genuine friendliness. I did, however, at one point begin to question if we were going to the coffee shop too much... the question arose when I started to get my coffees this way:









Later, I really began to question if the workers at the shop pitied me for coming in so much....




Is it just me....? am I reading something into this? Do you think that they are trying to send me a message......??? ;)

Wallace,
This is my favorite post/pic so far. How funny! The description of your local coffee shop is so interesting. It makes me want to visit. Maybe when I do, my cup of coffee will read..."diva"...I'm sure it won't be..."dork".

whoever did the "wallace" has better penmanship that the "dork".
Just a thought......

Great, great pics. Thanks for responding to my request. Very funny.

I need to visit!

This is a bit cheeky, but...any chance you could get them to do one that says "Cosmo", then take a pic? If you can, leave me a message and I'll email you.

Thanks!

anonymous, that is a great question! i can't remember if i was there for the "wallace" coffee or not.....i would like to point out that the coffee ladies have never written MY name in MY coffee, and you would think it would be a lot easier to do than "wallace"...just a thought

Are you being serious or did you make those online? I've seen a site where you can make one of those for your blog. :)

If you didn't make it on-line, you really do go there too much. :) Just kidding.
