I LOVE Coffee Emporium.
It is my "Cheers"…where people know my name…and my sister, nieces, brothers, and mom. I love walking in and hearing, "Your sister or your brother was just in here with your nieces."
Coffee Emporium makes a big city small for me. The entire walk there makes a big city small. On the walk, the fella at Haps Irish Pub sometimes gives Tucker a treat.
I love that Amy is both my barista AND my friend. I love that we get dinner together and shop together…and I love Gretchen and Jeremiah and Katie and Eileen.
I love that they put a fire pit outside.
I love the waffles on Sunday.
I love the Salted Almond Mocha.
I love the burlap bag I bought there.
I love that I can come in after work and chat, hear about Amy's niece and Gretchen's daughter's school.
I love Donna's cookies.
I love the wisteria that grows over the patio out back.
I love the community it fosters.
You get the point. It's one of those things in life that I'm way thankful for...
