Have you ever heard of the old saying things are what you make them.Or if you look for the good you will find it? Some are so high that they have forgotten what real air smells like. Or they’ve become so obsessed with who they have become that who they really are only feels good when somethings wrong with someone else. Well I r recently moved to Flint Texas from a big city. There was a new coffee shop with a new name popping up on every corner! Some I had no idea were coffee drive through!

After loosing so many to death in a short time span, I wanted to slow life down and enjoy life. Not be so high on my accomplishments , or myself! I wanted to just enjoy the gift of life.

THEN....THE COFFEE. what WAS in this cup was the actual best S'mores Java Shake I have ever had the pleasure of drinking. It was STUNNING visually with the whipped cream delicately sprinkled with Graham cracker, the sides painted perfectly with chocolate drizzle BUT THEN.....I tasted it.... it wasn't just good. it was so smooth, there weren't any ice chunks, the flavors mixed perfectly, the little sips of chocolate expertly dispersed througout....chefs kiss Hannah, thank you for lifting my mood with your kindness & cool bracelets and chasing away my exhaustion with the literal best Java shake I've...
