Well, my sweet husband did some research and found out that they recently put a Coffee Bean in Birmingham, AL...which is only about two hours from here. We took a little day trip last Saturday and when you live in a small town it just doesn't seem that weird when your husband wants to pack up the car and take the family "to the big city" for a day. It should have been a red flag for me when he said that he wanted to go and check out the outlet mall...but it wasn't (like I said, we live in a small town). So, as we were strolling around the mall, suddenly and completely unexpectedly I saw the Coffee Bean sign pop up out of nowhere (cue Handel's Hallelujah chorus)...Now THAT was a great surprise! I was totally shocked! He said that I had a great reaction, although it is all a blur to me now.
We got hot drinks, cold drinks, and vanilla powder to go. And the funny thing is that we saw another couple doing the exact same thing (they must be West Coasters).
* A note about "I Love You Day": No, it is not a national holiday, but it could be (Hallmark, are you listening?) We have our own little holiday, "I Love You Day", that we celebrate this time of year. I mentioned it on the blog once and you can read about it here if you like.
May you celebrate I Love You Day today and every day!
xoxo
