COFFEE TO GO. SOMEWHERE NICE.
Like many of us, I buy take away coffee much less than I used to. And when I buy coffee out, it’s more of a special occasion. I’ll have it in the cafe, in a real life ceramic mug, with your current reading material (I’m currently trying to read more classics so it’s Crime and […]
