I got the chance to go on a new outing, and with a surprise outing with one of the kids. I was over joyed to get out of the house and do something fun. It really has been a year for "first" times for so many things, and it is bringing me (us) pure joy, adventures, and fulfillment. Big or small.
First, I received gifts! A bag, new Spring bathrobe, garden gloves and a coffee mug.
Oh, and here is the "first time" part of the special day. . .we went to a coffee shop that we have never been too (first visit). It's been open for many a year or so. It's small, quaint, and oh boy, sells used and new books (gulp!). They also sell locally made crafted items as well.
I got to try hot and iced coffee flights for the first time ever!! Oh my gosh, these were delightful.
My first ever blind date with a book. I will have an update on this, when I read it. How cool is this get up?
These were the teabags on each of our blind date books. I got the mint and rose tea.
As long as the coffee shop continues to stay open, it will be a special place to enjoy in the future. The coffee was spot on good. The used books will definitely get me into trouble, as I have enough to read right now, ha ha!
We had so much fun, that we may plan another coffee adventure in the near future, and yes it will be another "first time" adventures.

What fun! So many lovely surprises. You deserved a treat!
ReplyDeleteLeigh, thank you. I was so happily surprised. What a great day too.
DeleteI have never been to a coffee house with a flight. Now I want to find one!
ReplyDeleteAnne in the kitchen, many locally owned coffee houses now offer tasting flights, and they are fun and delicous.
DeleteWhat, say what? An early Mother's Day??? I've got to look for that watermelon tea. So glad you were able to get out-and-about!
ReplyDeleteMother Em, I am very intrigued with the watermelon tea. It was not on my book but my daughter's book. I'll have to ask her if she liked it.
Deletesuch pretties & new teas to try
