Sunday Ritual






The missus and I started a Sunday ritual about six weeks ago (Note: there're hardly any human and/or animal sacrifices). This was Shannon's brainchild and has turned into a cool Sunday morning thing to do. There's this shopping area near us called Belmar and every Sunday during the summer they have a farmers' market. Here we see the farmers setting up with tents and prepping for the day.












So we started getting there early, when the coffee shop first opens.






We grab a table and order coffee or chai and I usually get a chocolate chip muffin (imagine that).






The coffee shop, called The Press Coffee Company, is Colorado-owned. And according to the wife, it's the only other coffee shop she's found with chai as good as Starbucks.









We spend roughly two hours here, writing or people watching or maybe just surfing the 'net with their free WiFi. Then we wander the market and usually pick up some fresh produce. Lovin' it, man.

I love our ritual honey - sacrifices or no.

I've got a Sunday ritual... it's not that well spelled out, but I would describe it as "sitting around on my duff". There are some other elements, like coffee. It's still in draft.
