I suppose you could say it started out as an
errandonnee. I needed a few things from Trader Joe's… bananas, bars,
bathroom tissue (that's what
proper people call toilet paper). I
had a taste of their coffee of the day and had to have more of that
taste. I picked up some crackers which can't be found anywhere else –
raisin and rosemary, fig and oh, who cares, it's figs. Then, some white
bean and basil hummus to go with the crackers and frozen mango to make
smoothies with. I packed it up in my awesome Detours bike bag and though
it was bursting at the zipper, I was still able to close it.

On
the way back from TJ's, I turned to 65th Street and then Latona. Next
to the Latona Pub is Cafe Lulu. The bike parking is outside the pub
because it's more essential to bike after drinking beer than after
drinking coffee, I guess. I ordered a Soy Latte and a chocolate coconut
bar (the same ones I get at Pioneer Coffee in North Bend when going
hiking) from the friendly barista in the small cafe and took a seat by
the window. Outside, across Latona was a restaurant I had heard mention
on, The Butcher and the Baker, but didn't know where it was. A quick
search told me that it's an excellent spot for brunch – I am filing that
tidbit away somewhere.

After quaffing my coffee, I quickly packed up to head home for the sake of my frozen fruit.
