Coffee Spills

What I hear and see and think about at the coffee shops I patronize.
Brisk. Fresh. Well-balanced. Occasional nutty and bittersweet overtones.

A carry-in McDonald's breakfast

A large overweight man brought in a huge sack of McDonald's breakfast items to the coffee shop at Giant Eagle. Maybe only the window was open at McDonald's and he wanted a sit down breakfast. Giant Eagle has a very tasty and inexpensive alternative to all that fat. A bowl of oatmeal with a lot of fresh fruit plus coffee or tea for $2.00.

Good deal on oatmeal

There's a very nice breakfast offered at the Giant Eagle--steaming hot oatmeal with either coffee or tea for $2.00. A customer showed it to me--lots of fresh fruit in the oatmeal, plus hot milk. I don't see many people in the coffee shop there in early a.m. Only one or two. But the Christmas music has been very nice, and the coffee is very good.
