Pull up a seat

If I ever opened a coffee shop/bakery, I would call it "Mimi's place".


It just sounds cozy. It sounds like somewhere you could go to socialize, with bar stools and vintage fabric. Huge photographs of Europe hung all over the walls, with little collage pieces scattered inbetween. There would be little booths, and "study corners", isolated enough for those, like me, who get easily distracted by other people, but who still want the coffee shop feel while they study.


For goodness sake, the coffee would be good, but not overpriced. And the baked goods? Natural ingredients...simple...homebaked..and delicious. Bookshelves full of board games and my favorite books, all free for you to use.


Mimi's place is the sort of place you can lean over a mug of coffee at the bar and hear the latest neighborhood news, talk about faith, or whisper about the boy you like.


Doesn't it just sound like somewhere you'd like to go? Unfortunately, it's only in my dreams for the time being. So for now, meander over to the virtual "Mimi's Place" and pull up a metaphorical bar stool.
