So, while Justin is adjusting to this fine, crisp Autumnal weather (Caitlin's right, Justin, no pity) the Coffeehouse is busy with their new Breakfast Bagels. As I expected, people are already creating variations on the theme...Clyde wanted his on The Tree Top Bakery's German Rolls and Carol and Cynthia asked about making one sans the bagel... So, it seems that folks are craving something for breakfast, with or without the bagel. In any case, each week we'll have a new flavor and see what happens. Should be interesting.
Oktoberfest made for another superb Saturday. Not simply busy, we also had spiced cookies, an amazing pumpkin spice bread that sold out in about 2 minutes and Oktoberfesty drinks. Not to mention that watching grown men wander the streets holding beer steins in lederhosen with very rakish caps with feathers was something everyone should witness at least once in their lives. Toward the end of the festivities, the caps and feathers began to slip a bit and we were busy with all the usual locals as well as any number of rosy-cheeked festival goers getting hot cocoa and spiced cider.
The evening was wonderful as Bainbridge Island writer, Suzanne Selfors read from her new teen novel, "Coffeehouse Angel". It was a fun and lively evening and we heard that her first novel, "Saving Juliet" is being made into a film! She signed and sold books and everyone left happy. It was our first collaboration with the Langley Library. One of many, I imagine. Thank goodness for Caitlin who worked a split shift and helped me close!
Just another day in Langley.
This week we hope to add in even more items to our growing menu. Stay tuned!
Oh, and I'm thinking of starting a fund for long underwear for Justin so he makes it through the winter.
