Please pardon my long hiatus from blogging over the last week or so! Life sometimes just doesn't leave me all the energy I need to complete everything on my to-do list. And I'm also knee-deep in One Tree Hill Season 3 on DVD, so consider me distracted! But never fear, I have lots of ideas cooking and will be getting back on the blogging bus in a day or two :)
Until then, I wanted to leave everyone with my awesome Wednesday morning story!!
I stopped on my way to work this morning to indulge in my favorite little coffee drive through. This place is pretty darn adorable and the owner is the sweetest person! I'd love to go every day, but it's not a realistic on the budget. So Jer and I will spoil ourselves every few weeks with a stop. Regardless, this morning I decided to indulge in my favorite decaf version of their signature ice coffee drink. It's espresso, white chocolate syrup, carmel, and milk, shaken and poured over ice. Then topped with whipped cream. I'm sure it's wonderful on the waistline. She handed me my drink and as I went to hand her my frequent coffee buyer card and my money, she said, "Your drink is compliments of the gentelman in the car before you! He paid for you and the next car and only asked that you pay it forward."
Wow! I was impressed and very humbled. In today's world sometimes you forget that the good is out there...just one car ahead of you!
Now I'm on the search for my Pay It Forward...b/c it's only as good as the people it's given too right??
Thank God for special people, Pay It Forward and great start to a Wednesday morning!!

Cool, had that happen at a Mcd's a while back and the girl in the window said it was going on for over an hour!!! Everyone just kept paying for the car behind them.
Where is this coffee place?
Stacey, I still haven't exactly figured out what I am going to do yet. But I'm certainly in the drive thru of McDonald's enough that it would be a good spot ;)
Casey, this coffee place is in Monticello Plaza. It's a little stand alone drive thru only place. Sometime when you're in town...you should stop by it. You won't be disappointed!!
