Weekend Postcard: cappuccino at Peet’s

Cappuccino at Peet's Coffee in Berkeley

 

 

Beauty lives in simple pleasures. And, at $2.50 for a simple cappuccino made with competence and delight is an affordable luxury. Taking a moment to enjoy the bubble of calm and the wondrous taste of cappuccino with its foamed milk and dark espresso roasted coffee complemented this visual treat.

I was walking toward University of California, Berkeley and stopped at the original Peet’s at Walnut & Vine just one block off of Shattuck Ave. in Berkeley for a small jolt of 1,3,7 trimethylxanthine (caffeine). The barista obviously took pride in his work and poured this lovely tree pattern.

Perfect for a forester.

My name is Norm Benson and my Lowdermilk manuscript is out for beta review. This is the story of Walter and Inez Lowdermilk, an American couple who came to see soil erosion as a threat to civilization. Their pursuit of land conservation carried them from China and the Dust Bowl to Palestine, where their ideas about reclaiming the land helped build the case for the creation of Israel.
