The Measuring Cup Cafe

This egg dish for so yummy! The crust was incredible! I meant to eat half and save the rest for lunch,.....but I ate it all!

Found another cute indie coffee shop in my area. I was so excited. I spent about 3 hours at the Measuring Cup cafe this morning working on my gratitude journal. Its about a 2-mile bike ride from me in East Dundee. The owner, Arlene and her daughter, Jonia were so sweet and welcoming. The coffee was coffeelicious and the bacon, egg and cheese pizza was overwhelmingly yummy. Arlene makes everything at the shop....her specialty is pies. Looking forward to tasting one of those......I think I found my new summer hangout!

Saugatuck

Took a ride this morn to Saugatuck....about 15 miles up Blue Star highway. Had coffee at funky/cute coffee shop called Uncommon Ground. Did some art for awhile. The weather has been incredible. The weather reports have been calling for storms, but the sun keeps coming out. Having a good time with the family.....nobody is making me crazy yet!!....and I don't think I'm bugging anyone either so its all good!

Elgin books and coffee

I found the cutest used book store/coffee shop in downtown Elgin last week. I sat in the little nook in the front and worked on an art project sipping coffee.Its been a dream of mine to have something like this someday. Altho I'd like it to be a coffee/used books/ art/scrapbook/ whatever Chuck wants to sell (records?) store. I'd like to buy a big house(victorian?) on a main street in a smallish town. The main floor would be the store and kitchen area and upstairs would be our living area......The store could be my craft room! I can dream can't I? I don't know, I've done alot in my 44 years...maybe I/we could do this too.....

....more coffee humour.....

funny....
