Cup O Joe Anyone?

If you haven't taken the time to pop on over to Starbrook's Coffeehouse recently, you are missing out on the latest greatest understated hangout in SL. Starbrooks is finely furnished by Moxie. Circ chairs and table allow for a small trivia group to gather. A larger corner couch allows for lounging and enjoyment of the open mic. Outside are cuddle spots, a dance area, and a gaming table. Any of these outside spots are a perfect place to enjoy a sunset or sunrise with friends.

I had a conversation recently with someone who just happened to be hanging out at Starbrooks when I popped in. Her first comment to me was how nice it was to find a place where you weren't bombarded with ads or propositions for sex. I agreed with her and we chatted for a while and answered the random trivia questions when the conversation slowed.

Far too often in SL I find myself on a mission to go somewhere, buy something, or organize and run an activity. Hanging at Starbrooks reminds me that sometimes it is nice to just sit. Sometimes it is just right to enjoy meeting someone new and not feel the need to think beyond just that moment. Sometimes it is all about just sipping some coffee (this time of year for me it is iced coffee all the way) and hanging out.

Sip slowly and enjoy the summer. Swing by and join me if you get a chance.
