I started fantasizing about owning such a store, and then one of the kids asked me for more eggs, after I had already cleaned up. I was so annoyed about having to get up, that Mark and I both laughed at the idea of my fantasy of cooking and serving (don't I do that anyway?).
Can you tell I loved it?

I dream of owning a shop like this too. I think it the sense of community that shines through that appeals to me so strongly. I love all the photos of this place.
