morning coffee

October 6, 2012

one of my favorite things to do is sit in a cafe with my journal and a book. if a friend is with me, it’s even better. there is nothing quite like reading and writing in companionable silence interspersed with good conversation.

at the moment, i am loving coffeehouse northwest on burnside.

while i was walking back to my car from the cafe yesterday, i looked down and noticed the leaves on the sidewalk. there was something so simple and perfect about them that i had to stop and capture the beauty.

come to think of it, if you happen to live in portland and also like reading and writing in cafes, we should really meet for coffee!

  1. Yes, that photo is simply perfect.

    I love writing. I love coffee. I love cafes.

    I too love writing and drinking coffee in cafes! :)

    And, if I lived in or near beautiful Portland, I would have loved to meet up and write in silence over a coffee :)
    I live sooo far away. Sigh.

    One of my future blog posts is about cafes, and Jack… of course :)
