COFFEEIt's the unseasonably cold November of 2008 when I go to New York's Bowery Hotel. There's a young man sitting in the garden, wrapped in about nine black sweaters and wearing a wool hat, smoking cigarettes, sipping a latte the size of his head, and furiously making notes on a script in the bitter cold. I have read about teenage girls lighting themselves on fire in front of his hotel, but at the moment Robert Pattinson is warming his hands on a coffee cup.

I spotted this table at a "Daily Garage Sale" one of our local storage units puts all of their abandoned units "stuff" on display under a tent in lieu of public auctions. I happened to find this adorable table amongst other chairs, tables and cabinets. I thought to myself FIVE DOLLARS!?

HSBC, one of the biggest banks on the planet, has taken to calling itself "the world's local bank." Starbucks is un-branding at least three of its Seattle outlets, the first of which just reopened as "15th Avenue Coffee and Tea." Winn-Dixie, a 500-outlet supermarket chain, recently launched a new ad campaign under the tagline, "Local flavor since 1956."

Dears todas, mariquitines incluidos:
Estaba yo tomando un coffee, encantada de la life y casi post orgásmica for mi day with Giorgio, Armani, of course, cuando un e-mail en mi Iphone me pone el vello de punta, en caso de que la depilación laser no hubiera hecho lo que se espera de ella. Te la recomiendo Isabel, Pantoja of course.

No sé por why, me da por ver la new versión de “She Wolf”, que quiere decir “la loba” y no “la zorra” como algunas malas traducciones aventuran.

Starbucks won't slug it out in ad wars
Coffee chain says it'll take high road
By ANDREA JAMES
P-I REPORTER
McDonald's has erected a billboard in sight of Starbucks headquarters declaring, "four bucks is dumb."
· Earlier: Coffee Smackdown: In new ad drive, Dunkin' Donuts is claiming a taste-test victory over Starbucks
If Dunkin' Donuts' taste test commercials were the schoolyard equivalent of blowing spitballs at the coffee giant from afar, then the latest from McDonald's is like pulling a wedgie.

Hey, BPJs!!
I don't know if all of you saw it or not, but Laura Mercier.com was having a great grab bag sale a few weeks ago (see Bella's writeup on it here ). They had three types available, and I scored the Light & Fresh set.

"Before you've finished your breakfast this morning, you'll have relied on half the world"
- Martin Luther King
An interesting thought. And a depressing one, when you realise that those people you've relied on for your coffee and muesli are almost certainly being exploited and oppressed by the unfair power balance in world trade.
