I am sitting here watching Stephen’s round. I like the way he tamps, and pulling two doubles at the same time. His action is swift and precise. Although he was surprised with a little setback while making his sig drinks, he quickly recovered and moved on. He moved on alright, to the final six!

American Express, Don't Leave Home Without It.

I saw Luc from Intelly Downtown store today. He said that American Express is making a commercial with Doug and the crew at the downtown store. I have to guess it is the Plum card. Pretty cool!

I drink my coffee black, but, at the same time, I don't judge how you drink yours. Whatever floats your boat. http://topics.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/06/09/coffee-pollutant-no-1-cream/?ref=dining

Das Auto.

Is it just me that the voice sounds like an old Chinese guy with the funny accent??

Barista Confession: Bronwen Serna

I think she is awesome. Too bad that I never had a chance to meet her nor the old and famous Hines Public Market Coffee during my second visit to Seattle.

The Fall

Beautiful cinematography, exotic locations, and that little girl is just adorable and amazing! Here is the official website and the movie trailer.
