Thoughts while visiting coffee shops.
If you know me, especially if you followed my 5 Before 50 posts, you know I’m a reader. I read a LOT! I’m in that season of life where kids aren’t interrupting me and my husband finally gets that I NEED to read. I’d rather binge read than binge watch any time. I’ve been tracking Keep Reading
I’m Glad I Did It But I’m Glad It’s Over Today I’ve lived half a century on this Earth. After a terrible night’s sleep (thank you, Tropical Storm Nicole) I got up and fixed some coffee and started reflecting on these goals and my life thus far. This challenge of mine has also been a Keep Reading
Whose Story is it Anyway? Of the five goals I created for myself, this one is the complete and total bust. I put it on the list to push me to prioritize working on my scrapbooks. It partially worked but then I hit a brick wall…hard! The History I’ve been a scrapbooker since the early Keep Reading
Obsessions, Knees and Spinning – Why I Probably Won’t Hit 500 Miles Of the 5 goals I truly thought this was the one I would achieve. It’s the only one that kept pace with the time as I tracked my progress. I did make a big alteration how I counted miles. That’s where the obsession Keep Reading
I have just over a month left on my 5 Before 50 Challenge and the most surprising challenge has been the books. I set a goal to read 5 significant books before my birthday. One of those I quickly decided was going to be the Bible. I’ve read many portions of the Old and New Keep Reading
Belleair Coffee Company & Roastery, Belleair Bluffs I had an early appointment for a lab draw this cold Valentine morning. On the way there I was listening to a podcast, Live Free Creative by Miranda Anderson. She just turned 39 and was talking about making a 4 before 40 list. She went over ideas from Keep Reading
The Coffee Mill, Largo, FL This little gem is tucked away off the main roads at the edge of Largo. Looks like they are opening tours of a roasting room fairly soon. That seems like a neat feature to have a coffee house roast their own beans. I’ve spent this past weekend and the early Keep Reading
Indian Shores Coffee, Indian Shores, Florida This is my first venture out to a coffee shop since the pandemic shut so much down this year. I have to admit I haven’t been as motivated to head out for coffee since I moved. My back porch is very inviting and my favorite coffee hangout these days. Keep Reading
Front Porch, Largo, FL When I wrote my first Coffee House Conversation almost 2 months ago, I envisioned visiting a new or favorite coffee shop every week. And then the world stopped. In all fairness, I was missing the weekly deadline all on my own. I did visit one other place before the Covid-19 lockdown, Keep Reading
Astoria Pastry Shop, Belleair Bluffs, FL I decided I needed a coffee one afternoon while running errands. Astoria Pastry Shop is tucked away amidst some smaller shops in Belleair Bluffs. It took me one drive by and a u-turn to find it but I was glad I did! I sat outside in their small courtyard Keep Reading
