It was a stellar weekend to be sure! Incredible weather, happy people and on Sunday, while about 30 musicians jammed in the front of the coffeehouse, approximately 10,000 motorcyclists were passing through the island for their annual Oyster Run. This is not to be confused with the Tour de Whidbey our own intrepid Justin rode the day before, but another thing altogether. So in addition to the gypsy music filling the town, we had about a gabillion (yes, it's a number, I just decided) leather clad cyclists enjoying the fine day. By the end of Sunday, we'd run out of just about everything and I couldn't form a sentence or remember my name. Mercifully, I was rescued by a kitten who might be the cutest thing I've ever seen and is now living with Justin, Molly and Caitlin.
Now a few days (daze?) later, we are all recovering and the weather has turned the corner into Autumn. Rain and gray skies. But lest you think we are resting on our laurels, think again! We've been busy with ordering new items, working on our menu and plenty of folks are coming in to find a cozy place to sit and read or write, sip a favorite coffee drink and enjoy the ambiance.
Oktoberfest is on the docket for this coming Saturday and it's sure to be another busy weekend. We plan to have some seasonal fare (pumpkin spice bread, spiced cookies, very berry scones, pumpkin lattes, hot apple cider, a rose and cardamom flavored hot milk...just to name a few) Lot's of new things on the horizon! We also have author, Suzanne Selfors, coming to read from her newest book "Coffeehouse Angel" (great title, don't you think?) this Saturday evening. I expect another crazy, mad, happy weekend. It just keeps getting better.
