THE GRIND: NO. 385

Welcome to our curation compilation of sensational stories!

Community members around the globe contributed some fantastic original tales this week, centred around the one true elixir of life- coffee! We enjoyed the passion in these posts, and as all good coffee pals do, we wanted to share a cup of them with you!

Cinnamon Cup Coffee is centred around creating a virtual coffeehouse environment, which energises its occupants with the digital ambience of coffee creativity. We hope you will adore these posts as much as we did.

If you find inspiration in them, too, why not amplify the love? Sharing our joy through chatting with other authors is the next best thing to buying them a cup of coffee. What a perfect way to thank them for a great read!

A coffee to smile in search of the sun

✨"A girl looks at me as if wondering if I'm thinking about another girl, and all I can see is my cup of coffee with the silhouette of another girl who reminds me at the same time of that other woman I should never have met because she broke my smile as if she were that other Baba Yaga from the legends, a mythological species from the Slavic region who ate children.
I look up, and the causality returns. The colours return, and I remember that coffee and love go together like the amber of a beating heart." @roswelborges

Discovering Amarelo coffee shop and its creativity to turn coffee into a work of art. ☕ 🎨

✨"I have spent the last year getting to know new coffee shops in the city, and I think I have done very well, I say this because I have not yet found a place where I feel that the coffee or the attention has been a failure, perhaps the prices are the most relevant factor between one and the other, but, in general terms I consider that I have done extremely well." @lolysacc

A delicious coffee with my mother..

✨"My favourite is the lemon pie, or lemon tart, I love it. But this time we ordered a cappuccino for me, and a black coffee for my mom, very light, meaning not too strong. Here in Venezuela, these black coffees are called guayoyo" @marivic10

Between aroma and good taste

✨"I couldn't help imagining the people who go about their daily business planting this tiny seed, others who are responsible for transplanting the plant, others who are responsible for grinding it, and finally, ensuring that the product reaches every home in the world." @lisfabian

A Recall and a Trip

✨"We also had some frozen yoghurt from a new place at the mall. And then we went over more of the photos and had a good chat while enjoying a cup of coffee. And we were having such a good time that I did not miss my chance to get some selfies in the mix. Also, to show the good matching colours of our outfits." @bertrayo

A Havanna café, inside a bookstore!

✨"Inside Café Havana, the service is spectacular. I only ordered a coffee, which they offer with condensed milk on the bottom, as you can see in the following image. I'd never tried it like this before. I liked the offer. We'll see my reaction to it in the next paragraph." @numa26

A GIFT FOR MY COLLECTION

✨"I get excited every time I manage to increase my mug collection because I love all of these pieces. I have opted to integrate unbreakable mugs to the collection, such as plastic ones, for everyday use, since I have lost some ceramic pieces due to the antics of my michis." @annafenix

A Quick Stop at Pickup Coffee and Jeffluff beside the road on a Gloomy Salary Day

✨"This coffee stall is located beside the road in the city. It’s called Pickup Coffee because literally, there are no tables or chairs where you can sit and enjoy your coffee after ordering. This coffee shop is designed for people who just want to pick up their coffee and drink it somewhere else-you just pick it up and walk away after ordering." @hopefulsoul

Art and coffee at Strauss'Coffee 🎨☕

✨"On my visit to the Museum of Culture in the city of Valencia, something more than the works of art by Picasso, caught my attention and that is that inside the Museum there is a very beautiful cafeteria and from which came out that glorious aroma that for those who love coffee as much as I do, know that it is an aroma that you can not resist. " @paolamandelbaum

Sunny Days and Coffee Shops

✨"Never once does a coffee shop turn off the AC when it rains. Why? Maybe it feels very warm because the AC here isn't set to maintain a stable room temperature; there's no such thing. The AC is only for cooling the room, cause here there are only two seasons (summer and rainy), so there's no need to keep the temperature warm." @isdarmady
