"It's Friday & I'm in Love" Bou'isms


I don't usually visit Caribou.  Their coffee taste different.  Don't try to tell me otherwise.  I can tell.  Don't even get me started on their pitiful version of a Pumpkin Spice!  Today, I took a couple minutes after the library to sit & read.  Caribou was on the way home.  I know that they've had this new design for months.  When we do visit, it's for something cold & there are no words on the plastic cups.  During those visits, I never have time to read their windows which are also loaded with phrases. I'm usually begging a kid to keep the lid on their milk.  Why is it they feel the need to look inside their milk?  But today was definitely a hot drink type of day.  The rain had just stopped & kept threatening to crash my solo date.  But I fought hard & sat outside.  Inside sounded like a shooting range.  Why do people type so hard?  I got it.  You have a laptop.  You don't need an office.  Got it.  There must be a Facebook group for that annoyance.  Anyway...  It was the perfect time for me to get lost with their cups.  Gimmick?  I don't care.  I like a good one.  And I discovered that they've quote one of our favorite movies.

"While I really do prefer emeralds we could have made it on green glass."

Today, sweet graffiti on cups is a favorite.  Here's another side of my cup.  Take something from it.  That's the point.


I'm also a sucker for bookcovers.  I judge.  But don't we all?

    Andy just taught O the joys of this 'game' and they have been giggling their way down the littl slope in our front yard ever evening.
