    The latte art class was awesome! I now pour rosettas like they're nothing. It was great. Chris and Ellie are great teachers.
    Don't know if I am going to MN yet, but hope to. If I do, I will let ya know!

    Hi Shawn, I hope you don't mind but I checked out the website and then sent you some POS information to have on file. Give me a call if there is ever anything I can help with.

    oh.....I think I was at anodyne not too long ago and got into a nice conversation with a gal at the counter and she mentioned they had a particular coffeegeek barista that was talented...( must be Megan)- thats an interesting area over there by the 331- I used to actually sell them coffee years ago, not sure what they are doing now. I am not even sure what the closest other coffeehouse is in that neighborhood would it be matchbox? Sorry it did not work out..maybe there is another interesing location that will appear...hope it does for you.
