Caffeine

Quiet doesn't begin to describe the atmosphere around here. Not that it is normally noisy, I just think the wet weather and grey skies are keeping people inside and subdued.

A little cloud didn't deter me though. Waking up today at the crack of noon, I decided I needed a hair cut. Yep out of the blue I wanted it all shortened. A hair cut on a Saturday? I must be nuts, the place will be loaded with people.

Not a problem - I walked in and was out 10 minutes later, not a soul in the place but me. Very unusual! Next on the list, food; I was a little hungry and honestly just a wee bit too lazy to cook anything for myself. I hate cooking to begin with!

Bonus points again, walking on down the road a little cafe was open. Normally they only serve breakfast and lunch and close up for the day. This weekend they are experimenting with staying open for dinner as well and nobody knows anout it yet.

The Baker Street Cafe is very inconspicuous, hidden behind a very simple facade there is no indication of what you might fond inside. I was more than pleasantly surprised. Nothing fancy, just really good food and decent music playing at an easy level.

I asked for a burger, nothing fancy and got the best damn one I've tasted in a long time. The thing was huge, topped with not one but 3 types of lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, cheese and bacon. That wasn't all, freshly made home fries, fresh fruit and a never ending cup of coffee. I was in heaven.

Will I ever go back there again, you betcha. Yes, not a bad day despite the terrible weather.
