Here’s the scene…
I’m barely awake and starting my morning espresso ritual…
Text from my daughter, Lucy: “Happy Summer Solstice!”
Text from my daughter, Amy: “Happy First Day of Summer!”
Text from a local friend: “It’s finally Summer!”
The family & friend Hey, It’s Summer! texts were coming fast and furious a few days ago.
Not to mention everyone on my social media feeds. I feel like I’m slowly waking up to the fact that it “might” be summer. I know it’s crazy-stupid hot in other parts of the country, however, our weather here in So Cal is slowly moving towards the warm side, but it’s been cool and overcast for the past few weeks.
But today. Today it’s warm. 77 degrees. With a slight warm breeze. Now I’m really waking up to the reality that it’s mid-June and yes, SUMMER!
“IT’S SUMMER!” My mind is slowly responding: “Wake up, Marta! It’s summer!”
And if you’re Cuban, summer means just another excuse to have your cafecito. Am I right?
“Ok, ok. So, let’s do a summer giveaway!” She said, sleepily – I’m still coming to from the slow, cool spring we’ve had, but that’s not important right now.
My wonderful friends at Café La Llave have generously offered to host this fabulous Summer Coffee Giveaway. The winner will receive this beautiful basket of Café La Llave coffee and goodies. (It’a so awesome, I’m tempted to keep it for myself. Shut up. I know.)
I’m very curious to know how everyone enjoys their Cuban coffee.
One lucky winner will receive this gorgeous, “Wake Up and Smell the Coffee” basket of Café La Llave goodies.
