The perfectly balanced cappuccino -- skim milk, extra shot --warmed the cockles of my heart.
$9.49 for an aromatic pound of Italian Blend espresso beans lovingly roasted on premise had my wallet -- and then our espresso machine -- singing "O Sole Mio."
Nattily dressed coffologists -- sporting plaid button-fronts and page-boy caps -- ignited the same butterflies that drove my obsession with "Newsies" in middle school.
So many reasons to love this little independent wonder.
