Coffee Girl
I whole heartily, hands down, totally and completed without a doubt seek out and AM a COFFEE GIRL.
It all started after I was laid off from my advertising job back in the beginning of 2002. It ended up being a blessing for many reasons, but for one--I became a BARISTA!
Besides being a child of God, Wife and Mother, it is my favorite job to date. I adored it.
One way or another, I am usually seeking out coffee! I enjoy the experience, the moment and the taste.
I worked in the coffee business for about 5 years, until I had to quit 4 years ago due to my health; oh,
how I long to be a Barista again some day!

Coffee and PIE-best combination ever.
Father's Day downtown Minneapolis. There is something so sweet about sharing a cup of coffee with someone who loves it as much as I do.
My girlfriend at I having dinner and dessert before Swan Lake/Mpls Feb 2011.....coffee!
(cream please)!
(cream please)!
I wouldn't say I'm a coffee snob though...Although I am picky about consistency, which can be hard to find these days.
I find with the Third Wave (clover brewed/single brew at a time)-- of coffee makers, there's a guarantee that I'll get an amazing cup of coffee
whether it's brewed or a Latte'.
While in Chicago this past weekend everyone I was with was gracious enough to let me hunt down INTELLIGENTSIA! One of my favorite coffee shops in the world. It was all I imagined and MORE.
Clover style, SO GORGEOUS!
I was so happy to be there, but I was soooo pooped out from the day before!
Sleepy eyes, maybe I should have had 2 lattes?
MMMmmmm Latte' perfection and cream cheese croissant! I was in heaven. There's a pound of BEANS in that bag :0
