News from Sarah

We are half way through our second week! To those of you who have visited us multiple times already, THANKS! It’s always fun getting to know everyone, hearing your stories,  thoughts, and tangents of the moment. 

We have those special customers who like their espresso drinks just so.  In honor of their finely tuned tastes, we have a few new special drinks.  We have the “Sherryl,”  the “Wanda,” the "Lance" and the “Lance B.”  A few specialty ideas have popped up as well the  Snickers Mocha and the Hot and Spicy?  A hint on the Hot and Spicy; it contains cayenne pepper!

Many, many books are finding their way into our inventory and onto the shelves each day.  We are tracking all of our books, so if there is one that you are just itching to read, we are capable of looking it up.  If we don’t have it, we are willing to hunt it down and order it. Aside from The Guide to Beers of the Northwest, the latest one to catch my eye was the Pirate Dictionary! Perhaps I can twist someone’s arm and offer a free espresso drink to anyone who can string together a full, fluent and coherent drink order in fluent Pirate jargon.

Actually I am more likely to pick up the biography of Peggy Guggenheim. Art Lover, A Biography of Peggy Guggenheim by Anton Gill is an intimate look into the art collectors personal life and career.  Following the death of her father in the Titanic tragedy, Ms. Guggenheim inherited a small fortune. She took it abroad to Paris and London, meeting artists and amassing artworks from the great contemporary artists of the time.  Although this book appeals to me personally, we have a number of biographies and autobiographies.  So many that I had a difficult time choosing which to endorse.

Come on by and see what catches your eye.  See you soon!
