The water station got me. Of all the (wonderful) things I could have noticed during my first visit to Other Lands Neighborhood Brewery & Café, it was the self-serve water station tucked into the back hallway that made an impression. You don't have to wait in line. You don't have to ask anyone for a cup. You don't have to pay $12 for bottled water. It's just there.

DISCOVERING THE LOCAL ARTS SCENE THROUGH MAC’S FIRST FRIDAYS
As a writer, I've always gravitated toward words rather than paint. Canvases - whether sketched, splashed, or poured - were never really my thing.

I am now an Iced Mocha Latte (with almond milk) drinker! The first few times I tried it, I felt a little "buzzed." If I'm being honest, it freaked me out a little, and I almost low-key panicked when I got … [Read more...] about FOLLOW YOUR HEART TO COHESIVE COFFEE
