Subtle, where strangers reunite under unlikely circumstances, to enjoy a cup of coffee, read the papers, spy on other’s conversation, and perhaps just to soak up a new energy

you can value the quality of a city by the people that populate it

I had a delightful conversation with one of the customers over the weekend. She has a humble heart and a mind of a creative cat, wondering in her little world of peace and happiness. “I was away for three years, and it took me three years to get used to here”. I stumbled, as I had been away for five years and would it take me five years to get used to it here? Matter of choice, would I want to? The value family and friends. But today, I’m missing California more than ever.
Nevertheless, there will be so many exciting things coming up for the cafe next year. More baked goods, more speciality coffees/teas/beers and more family time with the crew. Beyond the city lights and social pressure, I cherish the comforts their passionate heart portrays.
I don’t mind the mellowness, just don’t show me any soup or pumpkin recipes.
So overrated. Then again, can’t do thanksgiving without them. Hehe
I love your writing. I have been away from my birthplace for so long now. I hope it won’t take me as long to get used to here though I think I already like Singapore.
