Sunday Morning Coffee / PHL Coffee Adventure 01Hi Friends, and happy end-of-the weekend! Can you believe that we are already half way through 2014? This year is flying!

I bet you’re wondering what all the extra title on the Sunday Morning Coffee post is all about. Since it’s summertime, and I have much more time to create and explore than I do during the school year, I wanted to jump on opportunity and explore a bit more of my city. So, throughout the summer, I’ll be visiting a coffee shop in the city -sipping bold blends, tasting treats and enjoying a new environment.

Today, I’m blogging (and sipping one incredible latte) from Menagerie Coffee on South 3rd street in Old City, Philadelphia. I also had a delicious turkey sandwich with pesto, artichoke, and chevre -perfect lunch to accompany the latte! I love the atmosphere here -great music and stunning minimal aesthetic. I’ll definitely be back, and bring friends along!

At the start of the summer, I moved into a new apartment. I love the place, but I’ve noticed that I’m a little less than focused and productive when I’m home. Stepping outside and into a new coffee shop will definitely help with keeping me on track and eliminate some distraction.

  1. Wonderful Idea. Its a lot of small local coffee shops here in Atlanta that I should explore this would break me away from the traditional Starbucks and Dunkin’ Donuts.
