Dear Coffee Shop

Dear Seattle local, neighborhood coffee shop,

You’re so perfect. You’re slightly hidden, just expensive enough for me to feel like I’m supporting local business, and the barista is super nice and makes excellent waffles. You make me wanna care more about where my food comes from, and why my espresso here is so much better than at Harbucks. 

You provide the perfect walk/workout in the summer, and the perfect warm, cozy space during the snowfall (too bad everyone in the neighborhood feels the need to come up here as well. My usual table is taken over by a hipster/skater-oxymoron with a Seattle beanie and a computer with a Session Beer sticker on it). 

You always bring in the best people and provide hours of people watching entertainment  (You also always have the local, free papers (I like The Stranger best.) 

I just wanted to thank you for always being there for me, Coffee Shop. And know that even though I have punch cards at the coffee shop one block up, and the other two blocks over, I’ll love you the most.

Sincerely,

Melissa Slaughter
