Coffee is in the eye of the beholder

Hi. Hello. If you did not know, today is National Coffee Day and I couldn't be happier. "This is the day that the Lord has made..." You get the picture.

It's a family thing. 

I grew up with coffee. My entire family can be considered addicts (that includes me). Personally, I can barely go a day without some type of coffee. On most days it is just straight black coffee, hot or cold. Days when I may want something more sweet, I go for a mocha.



Mmmm Mocha...

I live in Edmond, Oklahoma. I have two favorite coffee shops in these here parts. 

-Cafe Evoke
Evoke is for when I want to socialize with my friends. It is busy. It is delicious. You can go in Evoke and get your favorite drink whether it be coffee, tea, or even beer.  Since it is located in downtown Edmond, you can take your drink to-go with you (or when you are finished with your drink) and explore all of the fun shops! 

-Compass Coffeehouse
This is where I relax and study. Every time I am there it seems to be calm and laid back. Most of the time I am writing my blogs or studying when I go to Compass. The interior is neutral and invites you to sit and enjoy your time there.  You will also spot local artwork for sale along their walls. Very cozy. Very yes. Very me. 

Coffee is best when it is enjoyed. When you can sit there and simply relax while you drink your coffee. It is also good on the go but not as nearly satisfying.

I'm already on my fourth cup of coffee! Go celebrate this wonderful holiday!
