I can live in any of those places for days. I have my favs in different places depending on my mood.<br />Daily double latte at Flying M. <br />Dark and Spicy Mocha at Alia's. <br />Double iced mocha at Moxie's or, seasonally, the Bob Marley or the Mele Kaliki Mocha. Not available everywhere. <br />Bowl of Soul at Java. <br />Daily latte at Starbucks and a code for free tunes when I am nowhere near the Flying M. <br />I can't remember the name of the drink at Rembrandt's. Something with the word cat in it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1023899155559037020.post-60647650359511569082011-09-15T18:28:33.128-07:002011-09-15T18:28:33.128-07:00I've been trying to figure that out for a whil...I've been trying to figure that out for a while Amy. Actually, I've been wanting to create a website but focusing it all in around a mission or vision, purpose or theme just stumps me. The theme would be "stuff I do". Hmmm.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1023899155559037020.post-6600424004023686612011-01-12T16:22:14.844-08:002011-01-12T16:22:14.844-08:00I think removing the words from the books propagat...I think removing the words from the books propagates the demeaning nature of the words. It's a revision of history. "Slave" is no more difficult a concept to talk about than "Nigger". Both are bad words that stand for horrific concepts. Our education system shouldn't be allowed to re-write history, no matter how difficult the concepts or how negative the connotations. Children have a right to know that the word "nigger" did not originate in rap songs for the edification of a cultural subgroup. Keeping the language in the books requires us to explain how cruel and unthinking people can be. Critical thinking should be just that. If we revise who we are, we deny our kids the right to think critically about the cruelty in the world and how to change it.lizzyBathoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13240777768274838923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1023899155559037020.post-54677028098431188592011-01-08T22:17:48.087-08:002011-01-08T22:17:48.087-08:00What's next?

Keep the words in the books and educate our children as to the meaning of said words.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06184651329961158853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1023899155559037020.post-7819809604262255942011-01-03T10:56:45.523-08:002011-01-03T10:56:45.523-08:00I love Rembrandts!

It's too nice for my shop, I want more funk.<br />I'd love to meet you anytime this week.

It would inspire me to do the same. <br />I am working in Eagle so I go to Rembrandt's Coffee House. They have free-trade, organic yumminess. Love the decor also.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06184651329961158853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1023899155559037020.post-92130126922478843932011-01-03T06:13:37.373-08:002011-01-03T06:13:37.373-08:00In the Spring/Summer I love to go sit outside by t...In the Spring/Summer I love to go sit outside by the fountain at 36th Street Bistro...it is so beautiful.
