Conformists Unite

I recently went to lunch with a big group of women, most who I didn’t know, all arriving at slightly different times and ordering a wide range of things. Some had huge meals with dessert and some just coffee.

When it was time to go, we faced that often messy process of adding things up and getting the right change and figuring out the tip and collecting up the money, etc. It’s never fun.

But how cool is this? The restaurant brought us a calculator and pen with the bill.

So simple. So helpful.

I love cheese. Looooooove cheeeeeese.

Which is why I want to marry BOTH of these people:

A cheese wedding cake! As found on the Cheese Diary Blog of McIntosh & Bowman Cheesemongers.

We have a cafe in the neighborhood that we go to almost every day. A while back, one of our favourite baristas left to do something else. We didn’t know what.

Then suddenly, last weekend, we were passing by a little restaurant we never go to when we happened to spot her working there! We immediately plopped ourselves down at a table and perused the breakfast menu.

Hello! she said when she walked over and then proceeded to write down our usual coffee orders.

Without asking.

And we all figured out it had been a YEAR since we last saw her.

I love how this doesn’t fall into that trap of overstatement. That’s the kind of cup I’d like -decent.
