This weekend Tony and I attended a fellowship convention at a resort halfway across the state. It was a lovely event. This morning we checked out of the hotel before today's events started, so as soon as things wrapped up we said our goodbyes and hit the road.
Halfway home I was ready for my afternoon cup of coffee. Tony researched the options at the next exit...two gas stations and a local bakery/deli. Guess which one we chose?
The bakery was getting ready to close for the day, so the associate let us fill our large travel mugs for the price of a small. We also purchased a large homemade chocolate cookie to share. Between the caffeine, chocolate, and sugar I had enough energy for the rest of the drive.
Five years ago today: WHY Is It So Hot?
That bakery treated you well! Happy National Coffee Day!
ReplyDeleteIt's on my list to visit again the next time I'm in the area.
DeleteSounds like a fun adventure. I had two today. Caramel apple coffee from Aldi with Vanilla Aldi Oatmilk Creamer. Delish.
ReplyDeleteI'm not a big flavored coffee person, but yours sound pretty good :-)
Delete"a large homemade chocolate cookie to share"
ReplyDeleteShare a cookie? "SHARE?" Get two. Then tell Tony to get his own.
It was pretty big. I'd hate to think how much a whole one would have affected me.
DeleteThe bakery knows how to treat its customers and build its reputation.
ReplyDeleteI agree.
DeleteSounds like a fun get away. Nice of the bakery to treat you-happy new week
ReplyDeleteHappy new week to you, too.
DeleteHappy National Coffee Day. Nice that you were able to commemorate the day and support a small business.
ReplyDeleteSmall businesses are so much more fun to support than chains!
DeleteNever heard of National Coffee Day but looks like you did a good job of commemorating it! Happy October!
ReplyDeleteIf not for the grocery store ad the 'day' would have completely slipped by me.
DeleteSounds like a fun trip. We need a calendar that contains just these weird "national whatever" days!
ReplyDeleteActually there's a couple of websites that keep track of them :-)
