Some Coffee. Some Thoughts.

One never struggles to find caffeine treasures when in Seattle. A quick work trip lent itself for Java discoveries ….

In the charming downtown of Poulsbo, WA, I enjoyed the Cafe Cocina’s iced latte in the spacious seating area while watching a live feed from an Ohio cat rescue.

In addition to coffee shops, there are plentiful offerings of drive up shop circa 1970’s FotoMats. This morning, it was Good Vibes Espresso.

Both with friendly baristas and sized large cups that were indeed large. Quad shots. 🫶☕️

Also, I learned it’s common for Vietnamese restaurants to use
Cafe du Monde’s chicory coffee for their coffee drinks. The more you know!

Be extraordinary.

What a wonderful surprise!

We were on the east side of the Metro area and the clock was ticking close to “afternoon coffee” o’clock, so I consulted Yelp - Steel City Cheesecakes (& coffee lounge).

Lovely space with a lot of charm as comfortable as your Grandma in a house dress living room but as fancy as visiting your Grandmother in a starched collared blouse and pearls.

Plenty of seating for casual chatting and equally appropriate for an elevated afternoon’s high tea.

Regardless of tea or coffee and hot or iced, the perfect pairing of cheesecake in mini’s, tins and slices ready for mixing & matching and tasting & eating with a few in a bag to go for at home sweets later.

Definitely worth the drive to discover and enjoy this delight.

Be extraordinary.

WHOAH!! Let’s just slow it down a bit might we??

Wake up? Sure. If we must.

And be happy?

“And be happy” doesn’t just happen. One does not merely wake up and be happy.

If you’re “Wake up and be happy” kinda folks, then you do you boo!

For some of us it’s a process.

Perhaps we make some teeny tweaks …..
Wake Up.
Drink coffee.
And be.
Happy.

Okay, Caffriends & Caffiends….

Be extraordinary.
