in mourning black
For when hearts bruise, crack, break, shatter in life’s storage-hold; it would sluice between the damage, a warm poly-filla, taking up the emptiness with a perfect alchemy of sweet and warm.
For when the world sees your shoulders as concrete and not the papier-maché you sometimes fashion, it would make tissue-paper of weighty priority…
I knew something was wrong on Thursday.
Instead of The Mochaccino, I was presented with cafe mocha (no, its not the same thing, where one is ambrosia, the other is olympic sludge)
Come Friday, and in place of The Mochaccino, I’m given cappuccino. (which, to be fair, was worthy of imbibing)
Incompetent service, so I thought, the Fournos staff already wound down for weekend. But today came the death-knell, “we don’t sell that anymore, its not feasible.”
The words slashed, the sting of an open wound giving way to dull numbness.
No more Mochaccino? It refused to compute. No more Mochaccino?
Somebody hold me.
See what I've pinned
lol. i can relate coz that’s how i get when i don’t get my daily caffeine fix which is starbuck’s caramel machiatto. i cannot answer my emails or chat with anyone unless i have a steaming tall coffee on my desk. good thing i met this guy from wealthymen dot com who has a starbucks franchise near our office so he just sends me one every morning. and for those few moments while im sipping my favorite drink, i absolutely feel that life is bliss.
Love the new profile pic. Stunning dear.

its me, would ya believe. wasnt meant to be a sad face, its a product of another moment in boredom induced vanity, where i was messing about with camera angles and effects. i did a few more of them. they’re on http://saaleha.textamerica.com
Who’s the sad face in your blogpic?
shame:P
my weakness is hot chocolate or a latte macchiato.
yum!
hey, but i feel your pain.
evil evil evil coffee shops!
Mocachinos were nice once upon a time. But I’ve given up on them now, no one can get the right balance anymore, it’s either to coffee-ish or too chocolate-ish(? or whatever else is supposed to be combined in it) or too sweet. Campus coffee shop’s one aint too bad. But personally, espresso 4 teh_w!n…
I predict the end of Fournos soon…
I have a new addiction.. its a chocolate Cappucino from cafe Nescafe.. its divinely sweet, especially if u add two teasppons of sugar :> :>
thats why i have never put my tastebuds to the aromatic temptations of coffee – ever! – have never tasted – and swear i never will – giving up cigarettes was hard enough! – hah! – stick to tea – its always available –
fida . . .
yes Mish, you know I love it, when you talk forrreign.
lol.
