Recently, when I was in Aurora, Minnesota visiting Mary, we had one day to do a little tour of the area. We had a most delightful lunch at a wonderful funky little place in Virginia called The Shop Coffeehouse.
 |
| The outside was interesting enough... |
 |
| But the inside was so unique, it screamed "I LOVE YOU" |
 |
| Everything about it was spot-on... |
 |
| Every mug is different and unique. This one says,"Does this make my butt look big?" |
 |
| Every wall was full of art -- like this wall of shards of glass, which created a mosaic design... |
 |
| Inside, it's bigger than it looks. |
 |
| And the personal pan pizza was SPECTACULAR. |
 |
| Like I said -- art everywhere. |
 |
| Honestly -- everywhere you look, there is some spectacular piece of art. |
 |
| See what I mean? |
The coffeehouse in Virginia, Minnesota reminds me of the Mate Factor coffeeshop in Ithaca, New York. Remember that place? I was on a road trip with my friend Marion...
 |
| We were doing a little exploring of the downtown... |
 |
| We went inside this wacky little joint...and Marion had some delicious spelt pancakes. |
After our trip, we discovered the place is being boycotted by the locals because it's owned and operated by a "cult".
Really? Like life isn't complicated enough?? You can't even enjoy a simple spelt pancake breakfast without feeling responsible for some kind of David Karesh mayhem...
