It must have been a sign!!!



My Morning didn't start very well, a Road Rage incident (I was the victim and also the one at fault but seriously it was only a small indiscretion!) and also  a separate incident   with a cyclist that I wont even mention , gave me the strange feeling that maybe today wasn't the best day for  me to  venture too far from home in the car!

Darby and his photographic skills at work!
Me with my yummy soy cappuccino!

This was then reinforced after my teary parallel park and Darby reassuring me that coffee would fix everything mum. To top it off  the  Chairs at Three Bags Full  in Abbotsford  http://www.threebagsfullcafe.com/  were big Road  signs  (mine was 10km although I think it was once 100 - is it telling me to slow down or speed up!!!).... mmm a sign maybe my traffic skills need some further training. 
This may well always have been the case with my sister often white knuckled and fearful when she is in the car with me, and my driving often getting me in trouble with my ex partner .... Touch wood I have never had an accident , so with a good reputation.. I should be holding my head high, but today nothing was going my way so I just needed a coffee to fix everything!
 
 
The first thing I notice about Three Bags Full are the upside down  coffee cups shedding light over the coffee machine! Very Nifty,  What a great way to use coffee cups besides putting coffee in them!  I want some , I'm sure they would be eassyyy to make!!

My Chair-- giving me a sign!!
The cafe is a massive converted hat factory, with hard  grey  concrete floors and walls , super high ceiling and big marble tables  which gives the place a slightly industrial feel, although it still maintains its warmth with a  panelled wooden coffee area and fresh native flowers at some of the tables.  There is a large communal bench where people are enjoying breakfast and catching up on the daily news. I order my coffee and it comes very quickly along with Darby's babycino . My coffee was strong and creamy, and had a richness and restraint that made it so lovely and calming to drink, each sip and I relaxed some more and then it was gone before I knew it, then I had to show some restraint not  to order another one! They had many styles of coffee on offer here, from their old school, Single origin to Syphon Filter and Clover styles, next time I will stay longer and try some more.
I will make a note for myself to  dress up a little more than an old jumper and jeans that I am wearing, today the place is filled with young 20 something glamour girls having business meetings (they must occupy the many fashion houses scattered throughout the backs streets of Abbotsford) .
As we leave Darby is most impressed with the funky Street Sign tables (I must admit  my mind was ticking over  how i could get my Dad to make some for us, surely not that hard either!!)
