Why Michigan's Awesome, part 2

Biggby Coffee

Formerly Beaner's (ah, inadvertent racial slurs), this East Lansing based coffee franchise is wonderful.  In southwest Georgia any coffee chain is difficult to find.  Our little town had a nice distributor of fair trade coffee with an afterthought of a shop.  It was nice, but there's something about the transcendent nature of a chain that's comforting.  As I travel about my new stomping grounds, I'll occasionally see a big B (clever name, huh?) and smile.  "I could go for a grande Nutty Irishman," I'll think.

Of course, I don't act on it.  I'll need a job before I can do that.

More to come . . . .
