I’ve always loved the way a caramel macchiato looks after the caramel has been drizzled over top. I love the way it tastes even more.

When I was a teenager, I had the amazing opportunity to visit Paris. While I was there, I got really into espresso. I’d had espresso-based drinks before but had never experienced it like I did at the Paris cafés - the espresso was served in a demi-tasse with a small pitcher of steamed milk and a tube of sugar. I think my favourite thing about the coffee bar is being able to replicate that now.

Nikki of Cabaret Chocolates was here making truffles and I had to take pictures of how beautiful they are. The truffles are available individually or in gift boxes. I know I would be delighted to receive a box of the cayenne truffles!

This is the basket that I’m donating to the Hands On Museum’s Night of Lights Gala. It includes two bags of coffee from Vienna Coffee Company, a handmade ceramic mug by Alex and Lisa Lapella, and a handknit coffee cozy by me. The Night of Lights is a wonderful event and is the main fundraiser for the Hands On Museum, so I really encourage you to go.

A couple of weeks ago, Allison Alfonso interviewed me for the “Meet Your Neighbour” column that runs in the Press on Mondays, and the article was published today! She did a wonderful job and I am very grateful for it.

I am only able, however, to knit one sweater per month. I wish I could knit a sweater a week as she has me quoted, but I am far from that amazing. Haha.

I’ve also created a new window display to highlight that we do art, framing, and coffee. It was so fun to do and I love how it turned out. I just wish that I could take a picture of it without all the reflections in the glass!

So, the really big news is that I have acquired a wonderful espresso machine! (It’s a La Pavoni from the PUB series, if you’re interested.) It was love at first sight, and ever since it’s been installed I’ve had so much fun using it - especially when it comes to creating new drinks!

Johnson City Press video about the upcoming First Friday exhibit, which will feature 10-12 body painted models (including me - I will be painted with a coffee theme!)
The interview with Ren Allen is great - she’s such a talented make up artist and an awesome, awesome lady. It’s definitely not a First Friday to miss!
