I was waiting for them to start trading cookie recipes.

The key to a fantastic, ooey-gooey cookie is to take them out about 5 minutes before the recipe says. Gotta let them rest like a steak.

Promise I haven’t gotten sick yet.

you can still walk up and pay for coffee in cash anywhere. Your Luddite dream is alive and well

Not true! ATL Starbucks do “card only” quite frequently now. Just have cash? No coffee for you!

The coffee in SEA at the Beechers Vita cafe in C is better than the Floret. MKE has a place right in the middle of the terminal called Valentine which I think is a local coffee roaster which is great. Looks like maybe Covid killed it for the time being. Or maybe there is a remodel going on.

I hope it’s just a remodel and will open back up.

I've never understood this sentiment. You could have the best product in the world but if no one can buy and experience it, who really cares? I've been drinking Stumptown for years (grew up on the west coast) and I can honestly say that it's still the same quality, enjoyable coffee that I remember. As long as quality of the product and life for employees doesn't suffer, I don't have a problem with a producer "going corporate" (whatever that means) and making their product more widely available.

Never tried Beechers, gonna have to check it out next time I'm through SEA. Floret has always been my go to. Valentine in MKE was very good. Only got to try them once before covid shut everything down. Been through MKE a few times recently and it is still shuttered but the signage and equipment are still there so maybe they're gonna make a go of it again? Collectivo Coffee used to have a spot in MKE too but I haven't seen them recently. Another really good local roaster (MKE has a surprisingly solid coffee scene!)
