Valentines day, or Single Awareness Day... you choose!

Hello, Hello! We find ourselves here once again, another day that is either the opportunity to tell those you appreciate in you life that you do in fact appreciate them, or it may feel like a day that is just a constant reminder that you are single. Of my 30 years I've actually only had a Valentine one year, (and if I remember correctly, he conveniently "forgot" about it....;), so that means 29 years on my own on Valentines Day. I've finally reached the point where I realize that today doesn't have to be lonely. We all have people in our lives that mean more to us then we can ever tell them. Rather than being cranky today and tossing rude looks at happy couples, I am changing my attitude, being happy for those are in love, encouraging those who are not and reminding those in my life that I love them. In Arabic we say أحبك (O-Hib-kee), which I love because it reminds me of "the key to life".

So go out and celebrate those you love and appreciate today. It can be your significant other, your children... even your favorite barista at Biggby! (hint, hint ;) We have free hugs and kisses while supplies last!

In the words of a great man... "wuv, twu wuv, is what bwings us togever To-day, it's a dweem wiv in a dweem..."

Take care, drive safe, B-Loved.

Today I would like to say thank you to one of my favorite customers Mark, he always gets a decaf americano and takes the time to get to know each of us individually. Mark thank you for caring about each of us... you brighten our day!

Friday the 13th

Historically, Friday the 13th is rumored to be the most unlucky day of the year. You know the sayings; "Step on a crack, break your mother's back", "Don't let a black cat cross your path", "Break a mirror, and you will have 7 years bad luck". So, if anything will go bad, today is the day. . . . or IS it? This could be the luckiest day of your life. Create your own luck by coming in to the Jackson Biggby to get our "Lucky Latte"! Mention that you read about the "Lucky Latte" on this blogspot, and recieve a 10 oz for just $1.00! You never know, with all the rain we have had latlely, you may just find a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow.

B - Lucky!

Extra terrestrial "B"ings have invaded our shop

With warmer weather, comes the melting, the fog, and yes, the RAIN. You can view it 2 ways: it can be gloomy and depressing, making you want to curl up in a blanket, and sleep. Or, you can look at it as a renewal. Life abounds from water. It grows out of water, it grows when watered, and it glistens with dew. As I see it, with water, or rain, it is a new beginning. I know it is a little chilly and early yet to get out the galoshes and traipse through the puddles, but this rain is an appetizer to those soon-to-be-coming warm spring showers. I like to feel the rain hit my face and wash away yesterday, and start anew.

As I know it is still February, and it WILL get cold again, I still like to think about the hope of spring, and all that it means. Now with that said, you can take advantage of this delightful day. Be playful again: park your car a few spots father away, and take a refreshing stroll in the mist. Or, if you are on your way to a destination, and feel that the rain is nice, but better left on the outside, while you enjoy viewing it from the inside of your car, visit us through our DRIVE-THRU. We would love to see your smiling face through the drive thru window, OR, coming through the front door with a freshly dampened face from the rain! Enjoy the day! B-playful

Valentines Day

It's that time of year again. What better gift could you get your sweetheart than caffeine? Caffeine in the form of coffee, chocolate, or the ultimate, chocolate and coffee together in the form of chocolate covered espresso beans.
