the man on the street…live from downtown amherst

Dear Diary, Today I went to Flow and had a really good coffee. Upon leaving I said, “I have to go….the library is about to close.” She was chatting away, and I said, “You cannot talk to me any more.

winter warm up
Dear Diary, I have a thing for foamy hot drinks but I do not want a big fancy machine because my kitchen is tiny, well comparative to all those kitchens on house hunters but is that reality? Most of us have modest kitchens, and perhaps a little dose of kitchen envy to go with the few cupboards and limited counter space. My kitchen might be small but it’s nice.
