Meet me at Intelligentsia in Silverlake this evening at 7:00 pm for free taste of the world's best espresso. No, I'm serious. Ask anyone. It really is the world's best espresso.
There will be music by Neighthousand and food by Silverlake Wine and Choose Store of Silverlake. And did I mention free espresso? Yeah.
The parking in this neighborhood is nuts to go Metro or ride your bike and save the planet while you're at it.

This is a re-read, but I'm more struck this time by the importance of this book. If you want to help your congregation be a healing presence in your community you need to read this book.
At times like this living in LA sounds like just the right place to be. Tonight while you are sipping on excellent espresso I will have to make my own. I just bought an espresso maker and I can't quit. Peace.

Hey, at least you have an espresso machine at home. That's awesome! Next time you visit LA I'll take you to Intelligentsia.

Hey, Intelligentia is the bean we use in Pittsburgh at the Conscious Cafe in store! When you open the vaccum-sealed bags the beans are still oily as if they were picked and roasted next door!!!
Great taste Ryan!!!

Really? Wow! Back at ya Clark - good taste! I never made you for a coffee connoisseur. The truly amazing thing about our Intelligentsia in Silverlake is that the beans are always roasted that day at a location less than 5 miles away. And, as you know, I'm sure, they buy their beans directly from the growers, cutting out the middle man. Well, I'll be thinking of you in two hours when I'm sipping a Cappuccino under the beautiful So. Cal. sky.

Yes, I was there, but I got there around 7 PM when the thing started. And, I rode my bike and I don't have lights on my bike so I needed to get home before dark. But I'm glad you went. It was AWESOME as always!
