grey, chill, damp, misty morning

It was absolutely freezing yesterday morning, well by our standards anyway, 5 celcius at 10am and no sign of it clearing or warming up. There was no dawdling on our streets everyone seemed to be moving with purpose, positively bustling. To get to their destination and out of the cold, I imagine.

So, having dropped Tigs at creche, Twinkle and I popped into the sweet little cafe on our street, Mr Burch, maybe it's Birch, must check and also see if they have a link. It's full of vintage ephemera, old baggage racks with pork pie hats sitting jauntily next to bags of coffee beans. Shabby tin baskets holding cutlery and napkins. Slick new Caesar Stone work bench with time-worn mesh food covers over large, freshly baked slabs of raspberry-coconut slice (it was yum).

I must ask if they'll let me take some photos for the blog. I just love it. I ordered a skinny latte and there, out of this crisp, grey morning came this little pop of sunshine. Isn't it fun? I've never seen a take-away cup like it. And each in the stack was a little bit different.

Maybe I'm the last to see them, Greg saw it on the kitchen bench at home and thought I was barking mad, but then he has a lot more take-away coffee than me and I am barking mad! Usually, Miss Thrify comes home and makes her own!!
