My only reader father (hi Dad!) was kind enough to clip this column and send it to me:
Everyday Physics: How Microbubbles Make a Latte
That sounds all well and good, but all I know is that for the life of me I can’t yet figure out how to produce latte art. I’m going to have to take a class to learn.
Sorry not much content lately, I was traveling last weekend (I saw Anna twice!) and have been engrossed in a book. More coming soon, including (I hope) our first guest post. But for now we turn to Editors for today’s song that deserves to be played 21x in a row.
…. it can make a celebrity appear!
And this happened… #ryanneedsgrinder worked. The man himself showed up. What a good sport, a well brought up Canadian boy. We truly appreciate Ryan taking the time the time to visit us during #tiff. Take that @idriselba your loss. pic.twitter.com/8rMMWOs32J

About a year ago I was poking around the shelves of Little Red Fox in DC, admiring the gourmet foods and interesting things for sale, when my eye was captured by what anyone who has raised children would recognize as a sippy cup. Hmm.
Today’s song that deserves to be played 21x in a row

A bit of a hike from downtown, on a busy street in south Denver that feels part industrial, part suburban commercial sprawl, part hipster bait gentrification zone, you’ll find the roastery and cafe of Corvus Coffee Roasters, known as one of the finest roasting houses in the area and my choice for Denver’s finest coffee house.

Not to be confused with Crema, the coffee and gelato shop in Jersey City, NJ, also found in my directory.
Located in the RiNo district, across the street from ink! Coffee’s flagship outlet. They may not be for everyone, but I found the building and interior beautiful. The black painted exterior is softened by yellow painted artwork and a shock of light blue with red accents around one of the entrances, and two huge windows that brighten one of the mishmash of rooms in this large space covering two separate storefronts which have been opened up. There’s also an eclectic mix of interesting artwork and decoration.

Pablo’s has been around forever and was on the vanguard of Denver’s coffee scene. It’s pretty clear from their website that these people are serious about their coffee, but the feeling in the cafe is a very accessible neighborhood joint.

A long-time staple of the coffee scene in Boulder, the beautiful college town 30 miles away from Denver, Ozo operates 4 outlets which include this cafe on the main retail and restaurant street downtown.
