coffee & tea exchange

i have officially found my favorite coffee place.  it's especially significant because they don't even have seating (except in nice weather, outside).  it's just that good.

i love the laid back atmosphere and the reasonable prices are definitely a plus as well.  also the fact that it's the closest one to me.  sometimes i just love walking by and being overwhelmed by the smell.  mmmm....

they make up concoctions every month and give them clever names.  This month a few are:  naughty leprechaun, pot o' gold, lucky charm.  in february they had many valentine's themed drinks including bad romance latte, kiss and make up, ugly break-up.  

i had pot o' gold yesterday.  i mean why not?  and in february i remember giving bad romance a try.  it's just fun.  

i went in on valentine's day and they had a note up:  "happy valentine's day and to those opposed happy monday!"  which made me laugh too.

i mentioned before their countdown to spring.  well, it continues.  i love that as well.  14 days till spring everyone.
this morning even felt a little springy.  as much as it can while i'm in my heavy winter jacket.  after a crazy morning of field trips i went outside to have my lunch by the water.  and i feel much better now.

you want coffee?  in addition to drinks, they have barrels and barrels of coffee.  
how about tea?  they have lots of tea too.  
they have something for everyone.
i think they even have snowconeish type drinks.

Kitchen Safety

We moved!  We're in our new place and we just got wifi.  Wahoo! I definitely broke in the kitchen quickly.  I was making a panini type sandwich for a potluck get together so I preheated the oven.  The next thing I knew the fire alarm was going off.  Let me tell you they did not skimp on a very loud fire alarm.  Ahhhhhhhh I opened the oven, which I know you're not supposed to do.  In the moment, I think I needed to see what I was dealing with.  There were definite flames.  Ahhhhhhhh So I called Mike while trying to google what to do.  He was super calm the entire call while I freaked out (it probably helped that he couldn't see the smoke billowing out of the oven).   He said to throw baking soda on it.  I did.  It seemed to fizzle but came back. I searched the apartment for a fire extinguisher (maybe I should have looked for one before this moment). This is while I kept trying to silence the fire alarm (to no avail) and open windows to let out smoke. Then Mike

I have a few things to update on today =) Oh I just finished the best meal I've had since I arrived and it was oh sooooo good! I'm so full and happy right now! It was a mexican meal so at least i know i'm going to the right country. yesterday Tere asked me to lead a little yoga class. automatically i said yes because that's how i am, but on the walk from the classroom to outside i started to get nervous. the only person i ever lead in yoga was karen & she laughed the majority of the time (it doesn't really count). i just took deep breaths and i did it. it actually was great. once we started i was able to integrate some favorite posses of the people in the class it was great towards the end when marcelle (who is rather soft spoken, but i love her) lead a few poses as well. i was actually happy with myself. namaste i love our group. everyone is similar that we all have this interest to do missionary work, but we are all very unique and different at the s

Spring!

Yes, I know it is not spring yet.   Today's the meteorological beginning of spring or something, isn't it? I definitely suffered some winter blues last month (yeah, it's March!). Check out these tulip fields for your Friday! Normann Szkop  took awesome photos while flying over Dutch  tulip fields . ( via ) p.s. Two days later I'm still feeling amazing after my juice cleanse .  Yes, it's possible that's not what it's from, but considering nothing else has really changed (except starting a new month, which I am so excited about), it's getting the credit. HAPPY FRIDAY & HAPPY MARCH!
