Coffee Is A Lot More Than Just A Drink; Its Something Happening. Not As In Hip, But Like An Event, A

“Coffee is a lot more than just a drink; it’s something happening. Not as in hip, but like an event, a place to be, but not like a location, but like somewhere within yourself. It gives you time, but not actual hours or minutes, but a chance to be, like be yourself, and have a second cup” ― Gertrude Stein, Selected Writings. A second cup? Why yes Ms Stein, I believe I will......won't you join me? Bon Mercredi, mes amis! #cafebene #ellicottcity

The perfect amount of gluten free decadence......highly recommended.....just sayin' ;-).....Bon Lundi, mes amis! #seasons52 #yummmmm

I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine. I got a love, and I know that it’s all mine. Oh, oh whoa-Natasha Bedingfield.
