Hello There, Coffee Shop!

The good news is our quest to unpack all our boxes is coming along! We're probably 75% done. But one of the areas that is not quite done yet is our little coffee nook. I think we have most of our supplies pulled out of the boxes, but we don't have the area set up like we'll want it. So we haven't had a single homemade latte since we moved.

BUT!

We live within walking distance of a coffee shop, and we are so excited about that! And in even more exciting news, we had a gift card to said coffee shop tucked in our pockets before we even moved to town. (Three cheers for friends who give gift cards!)

Shortly after we moved to Grabill, we found ourselves with just a few spare moments in a morning, so we walked over to check it out.

It's a coffee house in a cabin, so how cute is that??

It's adorable inside - all neat and clean, with tables spaced widely to allow for appropriate coffee consumption. (Although we just got ours to go since we were on the way to a meeting...but one day we'll go to stay for a while.)

The baristas were so sweet and took time to get to know us a little bit. (We're trying to make good connections with local businesses, since we'll interact with them so often - not just personally, but for our work, too!)

We both got lattes that day, and they were SO GOOD!!!

There are many blessings about small town coffee shop life - and one of the big ones happens to be no line. We were in and out in no time flat!

This is, I think, the closest we've ever lived to a coffee shop, and we're pretty excited!
