Like in the movies

While working at the coffee shop today a male customer approached me ever so hesitantly. He wore faded flannel and when he spoke I noticed several teeth missing.

“Hi, I was wondering if you could help me… I’ve never been to one of these places. I’ve seen these kind of places in the movies but I’ve never been inside one. I wanted to order one of those drinks… but I don’t know what to order.”

I recommended a mocha for this first-timer. Chocolate and espresso, how can anyone refuse that combination? Also, a mocha is a classic and thus, a great introduction to the world of coffee specialty drinks.

I wonder if his visit to the coffee shop matched his movie-based expectations?

Hi!!
God, I LOVE coffee. and not just plain old perkins type of coffee.
Have you ever heard of Dunn Bros?? Fantastic coffee.
I wish I could go over seas just to try different coffees and sit in a few coffee places around the world. What a delicious experience that would be.

I get a little frustrated with TV and Movies. I feel like they set you up for dissappoinment. I'm always saying,"It's just a movie" or "Only in the movies."

Well, this was just a quik note to really touch on the fact that I absoloutly unequivocally love coffee. The stronger the better and I prefer breve's with no flavor. Okay maybe a little choc. now and then. I think those bottled flavors taste like chemicals or alcohol. Ugh!!!!!

Well, gotta go throw a roast in the crock pot so we can have supper tonite. Please feel free to contact me at simplykept.blogspot.com and have a coffee kinda day!!!!
