my favorite cafe




sweater: gap, skirt: j.crew, tights & knee socks: target, boots: naughty mokey
before my wonderful husband asked me to marry him, he met my parents at a coffee shop in my hometown to ask their permission. in talking to his mother about the plans, she asked him, "where are you meeting them, again?"
        "my favorite cafe," he stated.
        "okay, that's nice . . . what's it called?" she said.
        "my favorite cafe, Mom," he said.
        "that's nice," she continued, "but I don't know the name of your favorite cafe, so where are you meeting them?"

the name of the cafe is "my favorite cafe." hehe.

of course, my mother-in-law told me this story in the coming days & I had to laugh.

for any other michiganders who read this blog, "my favorite cafe" is called "sweetwaters" in ann arbor.  their hot ginger lemon tea is to. die. for. my sunday is now complete because i was fortunate enough to have some today.

wishing you all warmth and delicious hot beverages!

  3. omg, serious fail! i went to your other blog and commented there, didn't realize until noticing the link you left that i'd gone to the wrong destination. oops, my bad. so others don't do the same thing, maybe add this blog link on your profile page too lovely. also forgot about my fav hot drink, coffee for sure but a blueberry tea (the one with grand marnier in it) would have to be top o' the list too! happy weekend ♥
