Barista's the land of coffee beans and friendly service....ahem...if you enjoy sarcasm and funny jabs. Which I do, so I am safe. Today was my first day being a Barista although I didn't make any espresso, or lattes, or mochas. But I did make some frozen drinks, such as smoothies and such (the cold coffees, forget the name) and manned the cash register and served up our coffee of the day....fun, fun... all the while my co-workers trying to figure out what my nickname is going to be, because there is another Lauren and her nick name is Lawrence of Arabia and another girl, Hillary is Hildalgo...etc...you get the picture :). The best part hasn't even come yet, after we work each day we get a free drink of our choice! 20oz hot chocolate come my way! Perfect for the 6min. walk home! especially when it is cold outside and you forgot your gloves, oops!


So going to work wasn't my first time going to Barista's as I spent two hours there previously enjoying conversation with a friend and then spending time in the Word. I don't know if it is the coffee smell or great music that is the reason it is very relaxing to work on homework or writing my book, although if the subject of coffee gets in my book at all blame my job...haha...


One of my fav books, Cool Beans by Erynn Mangum, is about a girl, who is a Barista at a coffee shop and I guess it kind of got me interested in the job or maybe just the fact she found her guy there...mwhaha....just kidding...who knows what God has planned for me....but one can hope! (but this is in no way my intention of working there, i need money bad!)


So I guess what I am saying in this post, Come to Barista's and random thought of the day... Trust in the Lord, which I am now going to do everyday. I may stumble, I may fall, but my Lord Jesus will pick me back up and heal my scrapes.


Love ya all!
