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.
Nullius in Verba 
Mmm – looks good!
It was. The artistic flourish added to my enjoyment.
